These maps are getting old. There seems to be few invigorating new variables added to keep the interest of players.  Same stuff, different week gets to be a yawner.
This is a bit of a reverse situation where, I pay, therefore I'll give it a run.  If it were free, I'd bail. But I pay good money, and hope for good product.  Last summers MRE's are starting to taste bad.
Many of the folks who play are worth visiting with.  Not the game.  The friends can be chattted with for free.
  Hitech gets alot of these senarios set up by players.  The quality of that has shown through in the last few weeks, but they get what they pay for.
The 'overseers' of the levels are getting worse.  Might as well talk to a brick wall some times.  Have a question or find a bug? Complaint department will be back tomorrow. Not online at moment.
  Griping over. Will always have gameplay fingers crossed.

Best to all.

I fired off these quick ones to the CT dev Group. Just some ideas as to what might be possible. I also think AH2 will bring more pizazz with the custom skins.

As far as maps go, we're pretty much stuck in limbo until AHII and its associated TE are released.  No one's much interested in doing new terrains until then.  Skuzzy has graciously allowed some upgrades to a few, particularly when new skins are involved, but what we have is what we've got.  Regarding set ups, we've had a number of new ones over the last couple of months, as well as repeats on some favorites.

Interestingly enough, I recall a number of people expressing the opposite view, Lokee.  I.e. forget trying new things; just run the three or four most popular ones.  For what it's worth, this upcoming set up (Feb 6) is definitely a unique one.  Of course, some will not care for it, and just for that reason (surprise!).
