They make the same money if you make a terrain or not.

I disagree with this - online multiplayer shooters live or die by their maps. better maps = more subscribers = more profit.

The first line of the "Terms of Services" contract we ALL agree to when we install the game says... "The HiTech Creations Service provides you access to the multiplayer game Aces High™ and their associated message board.". No place does it mention upgrades or updates of anything in the game at any time. All updates are bonuses, and and shouldn't be expected, but appreciated for what they are.

You all sound like a bunch of whiney spoiled brats. Coming from a game that when the map was won it was reset with the same map, I appreciate the many maps we do have. On top of that while there are a number of maps I don't "love" I would NEVER talk down about ANY map! A lot of personal and free time was used by players like you and I to try and help the game be better, different,or more exciting. It's like someone giving you $1000 and you yelling and screaming at him because he didn't give you $2000.

You don't like the maps LEAVE ! I very much doubt that you will. You want a new map, BUILD IT YOUR SELF, or pay one of the guys who do build maps subscription for a few months. Personally I would rather see HTC continue to work on new planes and GVs and maybe a better game system with working strats, all of which only HTC CAN work on.

Love the Pizza map.  Great fights in the canyons! :aok

Grinder is beautiful but the whole middle of the map is unused, forcing even more hordeage (if such a thing is possible  ;)) into three small areas.
I think the intended effect of carrier wars in the center (if that was the intent - only my guess) never panned out.  Probably because those ports can't be taken.

Trinity sucks until one side gets steamrolled a bit.  Those huge mountains are a drag to climb over, so everybody waits for the other side to come.
And many times, one side has its entire force at one fight: because of the distance to go over water and/or "Himalayan" mountains to climb.

Not a fan of ND Isles (too few options) and the bigger version of it is a yawner: just all sneaky horde stuff against empty bases.

All the maps have some good spots to fight in but there will never be a perfect map for everyone.  My squaddie, Haxxor sent in a MA map quite some time ago and the status of it is unknown.  I've got one over halfway done that I'm hoping to finish this winter.  Who knows if it will meet HTC approval and if it does, it can be guaranteed to generate "I HATE THIS FREAKIN' MAP! WE NEED NEW MAPS!" whines, like all the rest.  It will have canyons though, lots and lots of canyons.  :bolt:

"Then out spake brave Horatius, the Captain of the gate:
 To every man upon this earth, death cometh soon or late.
 And how can man die better, than facing fearful odds.
 For the ashes of his fathers and the temples of his Gods."

You do realize that a new strat system would probably require new maps to function correctly?

The game is not free, it should come with updated content regulary.

it seems like we DO get updated content rather regularly.   it may not be the stuff you wanted updated, be we we do get new stuff quite a bit.   ill take new planes and tanks over new maps any day of the week.   and since it is players that make the maps, the answer "try making a map yourself" is a totally valid response.   my $0.02  :salute

But why is this the case?

Another hanger-queen or another map? I respect you position but a new map's shine would take a lot longer to rub off, I believe.

Honestly, I play a myriad of online games. Some are F2P others like this are subscription. All are PvP. This is the only one that expects it's customers to do so much of the work themselves.
