Vaguely reminds of me of AW big pac, which IMO was a great map from a gameplay basis. Sometimes all the water with small land masses can be a drag agreed. PAC can bring with it a HUGE map which I think is, what is required to help counter the gangbang whines in the MA. A big difference I found with AW compared to AH was that it was often populated by many small fights, not just the big huge FUR we now see in the beta. It was possible to up, and find a fight with a manageable amount of adversaries at just about anytime. The biggest prob with the beta map IMO is that it channels and concentrates the players in small areas, possibly causing warp issues (dunno) and whining. This map we have been given a glimpse of whether real or not, IMO will represent a big change in player concentrations and possibly permit the lone wolves to flourish again

Larger front lines spread the force and gives the pilots more options, which is all we really want, more choice..
