@Hellspell: Just because you have not seen the maps being played, doesn't mean they are not ever played. ;)
Some maps get played privately as well as on the pubs (for inters, matches, etc.), where the players actually focus on the true game-play and strategies AssaultCube was meant to have - not - run down this hallway for a while and hope you don't get headshot by some noob camping a one-way-shooting-bunker nearby.
If you were talking about competition from other maps, you're still wrong. Have you not noticed how the quality in good maps have increased tenfold since the early AC days? Have you not notcied the hundreds of engine pushing maps that still adhere beautifully to AC's ideals of game-play? Have you really not noticed all the people ripping off each other's maps and throwing in tiny modifications and calling it their own? (you should know all about that) - Check my links again, if you truly believe that there is no more competition amongst mappers - clearly you didn't read them entirely or, are just simply unwilling to notice the obvious because it works against your arguments about the restrictions. :)
Anybody who truly believes that the swarm of crap maps we've seen in 1.1, is caused by the mapping restrictions, clearly has no real understanding of this game and the (many) discussions this community has had about it in the past. Mappers make crap maps, not the source code.
I await your mature, painstakingly well constructed rebuttal to my points, as always Desekrator. <3
