[2019] More maps are needed!

Heyo Captains,

Hanger_18 is correct, a few months ago we announced in the Dev blog 3 new maps that were incoming, source:

From these three maps, one of which is set to be released in 8.4 - Greece:

We do have plans to finalize and release the remaining two maps in the near future, if there have been changes made to these, I can't comment on at the moment. We are aware there is high demand for new maps and we have a department who is dedicated to bringing more to the game.

Fem,

Please consider that that department recently created all of the maps for the Halloween / Space / Etc modes.

The issue with player generated maps and map making contests is there are many factors that are involved with making maps including balance, mode balance, spawn balance, tier, theme and suitability that players do not consider when making a map. As someone who did this experiment at CC Summit 2018, designing a map takes considerably more time and thought than what you'd imagine.

Randomly generated maps, I agree would be cool but would require considerable engine development among other systems which would take considerable development resources where the demand currently doesn't justify it.

Regarding your suggestion, please recall that game development occurs in St. Petes, Russia, offering these kinds of internships really isn't feasible.

Fem,
