    I'm sure I'm not the only one that can't wait for the official uber ladder.

    That being said I'm dying to see the maps we will be playing on!

    Will they be mostly small? Will they be mostly large? Will they be a healthy mix?

    Will we always start on same planet?

    The anticipation is killing me!

    Please show us the ladder maps!

    I'm only going to be content with single planet systems for now.

    Umbrella spam makes it impossible to do anything.

    +1 to no multiplanet systems unless they have excellent stalemate prevention.

    I vote we abolish set ladder maps after we get symmetrical planets.

    And when we get the Unit Cannon, multiplanet maps.

    There'll be orbital. 1v1s on single planets was not with this game was made for.

    I imagine the systems will be random (within a template), utilising the new symmetrical planets.

    That sort of makes better computer help your rank though, I can't really do large systems.

    I was just thinking "if they can get good maps of their own before the ladder patch they could just use those maps".
    If they can get in the symmetry stuff together with the ladder, ofc that would be great.

    Yea, but this should be a fall back option, if all else fails.

    I'm sure the team making these maps will win some community made map competition's and get their maps on ladder.

    I really do hate it when people refer to building a big army as spam.

    It's the entire point of the game, not some annoying thing people do.

    "spam" has no negative connatations amognst the supcom/faf community, it's looked apon as a perfectly neutral word.
