Why remove the old maps? They are differrent. Keep them.
Make your choice.

They don't delete the old maps from their storage. Maybe we see them again for 4vs4 scouting in CW?

Nice Idea !

[Vellron2005]

I have a better idea... take the old maps and "scramble them"... making what was north be south, what was east be north, what was south be east and what was west still be west.

Maybe even mix them together if they are compatible (like River City and Forest colony could be)

This way, we would get "new old maps" that would be perfect for CW, or scouting missions...

Recycling at its finest!

[BUMMBUMM]

I like how the old maps werent so laggy on my low-end hardware... >.<
plus I really liked the old forest colony and the current caustic.

[Imigo Montoya]

It would be nice too have these Maps for Lobby Matches at least...

I am so glad the old maps are gone.
I hope so much the quirks will be gone soon, too.
And for sure, if all old things get back or stay, this game will lose at least one player.
If you want to play with your small lasers and shoot from beginning, go for the tutorial and play there.
The old maps are to small!

I think it's fine the way they're doing it now - I'd just like the old Snow Forest Colony in the training room because it was the fastest/easiest lineup of all 8 targets. lol

[wanderer]

Basically, the original maps were designed for 8v8 and would work just fine for conversion to 4v4 CW maps.

Do this.

[Kalimaster]

Lets keep the old maps, the newer ones can be more fancy, with more breakable items. But the old maps are classics.

[Appuagab]

Old River City's and Forest Colony's leveldesign was awful, I'm glad they are gone. But they looked good. I'd like to see old-themed version of new maps. Like it was Forest Colony Snow and Forest Colony. Old FC was so... noir. But the new one is extremely green, almost like Viridian Bog. PGI should add something like season rotation (like they added day/night cycle on one map instead of separate night version). New FC feels summer, old one was rather autumn-like, and of course there's abandoned winter FC Snow which we all miss.

[x] Remove the old maps as they do now

I love PGIs work concerning the map beautification. The old maps were to small for real mechwarrior feeling. The new maps are much more immersive and they are looking so awesome, thanks PGI!
The size of the old maps would only be good for a solaris arena game mode.

[SnaFubar1971]

I like the idea of using the older smaller maps for smaller groups such as 4 vs 4 or 6 vs 6. Also if the Solaris Match idea is implemented to just add a Wall to the outside perimeter of the smaller old maps to use as the Arena for 1 vs 1 Lance vs Lance (4 vs 4) or Star vs Star (5 vs 5 for Clans). This would give a respectable number of maps for these modes quickly.

[SirNotlag]

I think the old maps should be available for lobby matches, they are a better size for 4 vs 4 then the new ones. However I don't think the old ones should be put back in rotation.

[Vetal]

I hate river city but most of peeople don't want to play blind night maps without tactic flashlights or proper nightvision as it had been before .

[Naduk]

old maps suck, let them die

[DailyFrankPeter]

I think now the voting is in, the maps that nobody wants will be clearly identified. Why not let players vote on which version they prefer?
