Will map creators ever have the ability to make race-type maps with the functionality of the dev-made races?
I would love to do this! Won't make it in by June 2 but hopefully soon!

Will there be cosmetic rewards for getting level milestones?
Not yet but there will be rewards in other ways!
Similar to how yall made takedown-specific maps with the simulation series, is there any chance yall would do maps specific to a different game mode. I'm specifically thinking about vanilla CtF and the custom version of CtF we've been playing in the Splitbuilders discord called "Bounty".
I've been hearing great things about Bounty. I think as we build more tools for map creator, we will be able to do a lot of things with cool playlists! But I don't think we yet have the resources to start making mode specific modes. We'll get there!
Pistol Swat when? :D and you know I'm always down to play some splitty
;)
Would it be possible for you to release the breakdown of player count across platforms? PC (Windows vs linux vs apple) and the various consoles?
No exact numbers but PC is definitely the smallest of the 3.
What's the plan for the official launch? Will there be a beta season 3?
Official launch largely depends on how fast we can hire. The team has been growing fast and is at about 85 people now, but we would like to get to 150ish people before we launch so that we can go BIG with launch and continue to grow from there by putting out frequent and meaningful updates.
Is it possible for a community-made map in the creator to eventually end up as a fully completed map for the main game?
Never say never! First steps would be introducing community made maps into featured playlists, which we hopefully will be able to do soon
Is there any lore you consider when developing new maps and updates? And are there plans for a story mode?
Originally no. But with the latest maps we are starting to think more about it. Lore is definitely something we are interested in exploring more
Hi Ian!Love what yall are doing in getting more itnimate with the community. I've been using the Map Creator a ton and would love to know which dev has made the best custom map? And which dev made the worst? Have you made any?
Depends on your definition of best and worst haha. I will say our level designer Sam made some awesome maps! And our gameplay engineer Ben has made some hilariously fun and funny maps like the "Great Pillar of Baba." lol
What are you most excited for S2? Why are the portal walls being changed from blue to white?
Probably the new matchmaker actually! It's gonna lead to better games and fewer bots. The portal walls aren't being changed. They are just slightly different on abyss to go with the vibe of the map.
Are there any LIMITED TIME events planned in season 2 or season 3 with mini battle passes and map changes (like Spookygate and Splitmas) ?
We definitely want to do more events and plan to do similar ones like last year! Possibly some more ones sooner too if we have time! What are some events you would like to see in addition to spookygate and splitmas?

We pride ourselves on being community first, so we thought this would be a great way to get closer with the community and hear all your feedback!
Off the top of my head, Will there be new gun challenges at some point? Will there be more daily streak rewards? Will you guys add new items to the drop pool next season?
All things we would love to do at some point! For beta season 2, we have added a lot of new items to the drop pool!
Do you accept ideas by the community, or just like generally wanted stuff?
Of course! We always try to listen to the community. One recent example was with challenges we had a lot of complaints about the "Play in a party" challenge, so we removed it when redoing challenges for beta season 2.
