Test forge maps? Remember the community forge island maps? What happend to those? Weren’t those a couple of months ago?
I know there’s some testing of the maps but… I’m not game programmer, but honestly they’re just forge maps, not DLC remakes…

Did they ever say the maps would be introduced into other playlists?

Well why test them? What was the point of the community it’s forge island playlist?

They said they MIGHT be introduced into other playlists.

> The Community Forge Island playlist will be retired, as the maps will return to the hands of the talented Forgers who created them so that they can be fine-tuned and possibly integrated into existing playlists.

crazy cleared it up pretty much, it was just a test to see if people liked them, to fix issues, etc. It was never guaranteed they’d be introduced.

Awesome, just awesome.

Most forge maps are better than their -Yoink- maps like abandon and complex. I hope that all the forge maps are added.

Well my problem with Forge maps is the framedrops and input lag I get when gametypes are higher than 4v4. Heck, even with less than 8 people ive seen a blackscreen introduce this terrible unplayable lag.

Well most maps were designed to be played 4v4 or 5v5 and the playlist was 4v4.
Unless you play splitscreen, you shouldn’t have any problems.

Priorities!

This question was undoubtedly asked say, a month a go, and no one had a CLUE that the Champions DLC packs were in the works.

I don’t think testing forge maps rates very high on their To Do list, nor should it IMHO.

The frame rate isn’t that bad, I made all sorts of large scale BTB maps and they run just fine with 16 players.
