Jesus christ, I'm not saying I can fix the entire gameplay of AC. I'm saying I can remove bad angles and annoying parts of maps and make them more fun. Why not make the maps more fun? That's why people play games. Honestly.

You were implying (at least it looked like) it would solve a problem; However AC's problems are definitely mostly due to other problems than its official maps. Also you need to understand that you're not the only one to have an opinion about things that should be changed or not. I know for instance that a few players from the same "circle", would like to change radically depot but getting rid of the old depot for instance, even though this is one of the most liked map according to a recent poll on the forums. I'm just being cautious and also warning you : as a dev you don't decide on your own to change completely a map

Sure, maps can have bias. Some maps would be better with less. I'd say bring down the default match time in mastermode 2 if you want people to play both sides.

We are working on a more ambitious project that gives more direction in the competitive gameplay already.

Cool. Not progress until it's in the official client however, unfortunately.

Well then support it. I've seen a few people shitting on some features because they were not official, don't they realize they give excuses to the devs not to accept them into the game ?

I'd really appreciate it if you stopped implying I have some evil ulterior motive like having only my maps in the package and pissing off other people or something. I just want to help the game and happen to have skills that could. If you go back to my very first post I did say that this would just be what's good for the game and not what is necessary. If anything it's just to clear up the map menus and give a smaller selection of good maps for people to learn without so many curveballs getting thrown.

Well you're making it look like "removing maps" is a sine qua non condition for you... So yes that made me wonder about your intentions...

It's just not a good idea to add restrictions to trivial things when there's absolutely no need. I'm trying to say I want to make changes here and the only person that seems to be disagreeing is a dev. (I understand the others aren't active enough to hound down changes to NostalgiaCube)

There is a need. If you want competition you need to define standards - map/mode combinations are some of those. Just like every single tournament have a restricted map pool...

It's just not as effective as if I were a dev.

I don't see how it would speed up things regarding the features mentioned on akimbo
