I like the map restrictions, and I don't kiss anyones' ass.
They cater to the game as it is meant to be played.
I have been playing FPS games for a long time. I started with Wolfenstein 3D and DOOM then on to CS 1.0, Halo, on and on.
I think that different FPS games have their strengths and their purpose and feel. AC is geared towards smaller maps, and fast gameplay.
If you want something that is more centered around bright big silly maps try something else. Like Xonotic, or Nexuiz, Alien Arena, and many others that may be more suited to these types of maps.
ALSO* I like the idea behind kitchenzz, and there are a lot of maps like that on UrT. If I ever get the desire to play on mini-me maps I just go on the custom map servers on UrT.
AND* There was a time when I may have agreed, but now I hate the no players no game argument. Basically because its retarded. AC will now always exist. Even if it's just a couple of nerds on a LAN 20 years from now. Even without players, if just in history.
IMHO though, there will be AC purists around for many years to come. I hope that never changes, and I doubt it will. So screw the no players no game attitude. I personally think if that's the way ya feel, then GTFO.
