Confining oneself to a true 1:1 scale map means that some concessions have to be made. For these very large maps, how much care has been taken in objects and placement? I mean... its a huge amount of work required to do all of that. Plus research.
The other thing I want to bring up is the role of the dogfight map. We currently have a few very usable small scale maps that we re-use over and over again on dogfight servers. Some of the new maps work brilliantly for online and others are more challenging or less useful.
Something like Italy Online has been a good addition in my mind. It let us do some fun things online in a short amount of time. How do people feel about these types of maps?
