And I don't mean Saint testing them alone, we just all hop on and go through the rotation. Neutral until I play the maps. May download them when I get home.
Yeah probably, we shouldn't hop into this blindly and to be honest I haven't been on all of these maps. Of course I have high hopes for them though since they are of such a high quality. It's up to SaintLuther on what we want to do but people clearly want more maps more than anything!

However for rp_isolation: (based on the screenshots) seems to have many tight or cramped areas, though there are a few open places.
For rp_betaworks, the desert aesthetic is nice but it looks like its mostly outside, and for some people who haven't figured out that building in open areas is a thing... they probably wont like it. The base itself is cool but it just spells out a battle of who connects first and takes it over the fastest. I'm sure not everyone will try that but newer players will definitely go for it.
For zs_castle_defense: the screenshots show only 2 castles which doesn't do well for base battling. Unlike gm_warmap which has 6 bases, and a large open area, this looks like only 2 castles and loads of water. So its either water, castle or air. In warmap, its large base, hill bases, ground attacks, sniping, plenty of air space, and can use tanks well. With that being said, the inside of the castle is great and looks awesome, if there was more castles or more land it might work out better.
Thanks for vouching for it, don't forget to vote in the polls.
Since that business is out of the way I've looked through rp_isolation's pictures and it seems there are at least a few medium-sized areas for sniping which seems to be the main concern. You could set up a blockade (without prop blocking) and just snipe down the road on one of the pictures.
For rp_betaworks yes there is one main, big base but the map is massive, containing many different buildings which can be used as well. Which includes one rather run-down looking building in one of the pictures that looks absolutely gorgeous!
For zs_castle_defense you are completely correct, yeah there is probably better maps for that sort of thing than that. I just needed to fill that spot with something of relatively high quality!
Don't forget to rate this thread, I put a lot of effort into it and I need people to notice it!
