Well Gandalf has told us the most popular downloads are the largest size maps(400+). No opinions... just FACTS.
Well thats the most popular on my site. I was just surprised that anyone other than me was willing to play on such monsters. I wouldnt expect alot of interest in my small maps since they are ugly and we now have such excellent ones manually made. I think if we compared the huge and epic downloads from my site, with the map downloads from Illwinters site (most of the small-medium maps are there) we would discover that Dom2 players cover the whole range rather nicely.
I would point out though that there is apparently a need for someone to take one of my Epic sized maps, make it pretty (I can explain how some paint program commands can help alot there), make it interesting (the biggest request is for uncrossable mountains to create zones and chokepoints). The new Faerun map is I think the only Epic sized map we have other than the random ones.
