The maps in RO2 might not entirely support the gameplay we want, but that's still more the fault of the game mechanics than the maps, imo. These very same maps (technical issues aside) would fare well enough in RO1, I think.
Anyway, what you have to keep in mind is that the maps in RO2 are recreations of actual places and in that they are amazing pieces of work and regardless of what you think about their gameplay to say they suck is simply not fair at all.
I agree with you in so far though, as that modders, with their greatly increased freedom (as they are not bound to recreate historical locations) will be able to focus on achieving a certain type of gameplay much more easily than TWI could here and it's going to be interesting to see how that will pan out.
Apart from custom content for RO2 I'm also very much looking forward to the total conversion mods like In Country Vietnam.:IS2:
About the complaining, just something I thought was funny:
Beta-Era:
It's a BETA! Obviously the full version is going to be vastly different and has every problem fixed!
Post-Launch-Era:
When the obvious became reality and the released game was far from perfect:
Just wait for TWI to fix it! They're only human! RO1 wasn't perfect when it was released either!
Early-Life-Era:
Now that we know the game was more or less intended the way it is:
Just wait for the MODS and custom content!
And now that apparently all hope has been abandoned, lol:
Stop complaining and play something else! This game isn't going to change...
Gee, vaguely referenced, general approximation of anti-complainer guy, how come you didn't tell me to stick to RO1 before but constantly tried to convince me to hop aboard the RO2 train because it was heading for awesomeness?
