Sorry guys but I totally disagre with all your no premade map. In what world a premade map in elite where you have to use your brain could make so much a difference that it makes you win ? If so give me one example.Some people (including me) are what you call bad map maker (which is highly discutable when there shouldn't be "good" or 'bad' map in elite) and someone is doing a map pack on what it is the nowdays "normal elite" map pattern. What is the problem ? If there are 2k "good" elite map, do you think there will be someone to map abuse or to remember all the map pattern. Even if there was such a case, how does it matters when barrel an mine are random ?
Although, I agree that the diversity on maps make elite enjoyable. It is not a valid argument when 90% of elite map has the same pattern and if you have 2K elite map you wouldn't remember all of them.
For the record dulek, I was in ea and I didn't got booted because of this opinion but because I left to Australia for almost 1 year so I went inactive.
