Official map pool needs to have a mixed set of maps, from old to new, chokey to open, low economy to high, big to small, lot's of water to no water etc. It is supposed to be an introduction for newer & singleplayer players about what OpenRA RA is about and what it can offer. Keep in mind that the map pool is redundant to a large chuck of players so it is best to keep it compact and focused. It means that when new maps get added others might get removed. There are certain types of maps which are missing or are too few of:
- 1v1 with strong naval presence
- 5 player ffa
- 7 player ffa
- 3v3v3
- 6v6
- Minigames
Since we are talking about art and tastes I do not want to see fights over proposals in this forum discussion. So do not comment on suggestions of others. Resolve it in private or when someone actually creates a new map pool and tries to merge it into the game.
