I get plenty of fun as a "hard core fighter jock" from the game as is win or lose
I am for trying anything that might not need any new coding
But I am for the map to regulate game play in the name of variety as the map will change soon enough ..

There is "work" for this to happen. Stopping a map in the middle of the war wasnt very popular back in the day when we had the "Blue" and "Orange" main arenas. HTC would have to do that same thing again. The coad should be there. I dont think this would be any different than then except stopping a "single" arena to start a smaller single arena to swap it back again 24 hours later. The players working the big map are more than likely going to be ticked off that they basically have to start over on the smaller map, as well as restarting when the big map restarts too. It seems to me that all you'll be doing is ticking off the majority of the players on purpose twice a week.
If your looking to get the action into a smaller area then it is much easier to just remove the big maps. Sure your going to take a hit on the "variety" by lessing the number of maps, but you should get the closer action your looking for.
Ideas like these have to be looked at from the position of "the big picture" Making a change so 10 players are happier only to tick off 60 players isnt a good suggestion.
