No such thing as a map being "too big".

Have fun with the increasingly one-dimensional game where strategy and stealth have no place.

Being funneled down a cattle chute into a phone booth where late war planes pick off the top and run home when someone dare come above them is your future.

Larger maps rule.

Just fight. Those that are not very good have to try to learn to fly somewhere.

This is a load.  If you fight, you get better.  Large maps kill action that people seek in game they pay to play.

The majority of these 1 pass attacks by speedsters can be avoided before they even get with 1k of you by a simple change of course.  Some of the best kills in the game are guys with loads of E thinking they are safe.  Then, boom, tower.

Also.. i have not seen a situation where i was forced into a meatgrinder since 2008 or prior.. when 800+ occupied an arena.

I think you failed to assess your options at the time.

Larger maps rule.

When there are 14 players on at 2AM west coast time with  no one fighting, everyone is at different fields bombing at 20K, or in tanks shooting buildings. And there is no pathway to action, or anyway for me to fight the guys fighting on the other side of the map (BowlMA). Then the map is too big for the field during that time. I didn't even bother to roll on Friday morning. There is much more furball and fighter based players than strategic quite players who want to play by themselves. When only strategic players are left, the #s are typically the lowest.

Map I saw last night had places to sneak around, numbers aren’t so big that it can’t be done.
