I would like to see the smaller maps brought into line with the larger maps, OR make the smaller maps 8 vs 8 again.
Less of a mess and more strategy involved with less numbers on smaller maps.

Love to see them expand the smaller maps significantly.
Won't hold my breath, though.

Expand Forest Colony (to actually having a forest) and drop Frozen City onto the middle of Alpine

Actually the idea of having a cave or two in Alpine sounds interesting
I do however think all short maps should be enlarged (River City, Caustic, Frozen City, Forest Colony).

I am in favor of both. The map size is obvious, but I also think going back to 8v8 would help reduce the ELO averaging stretch the MM is generating (my suspicion at least), e.g. averaging high/low ELO to get an average score vs a group of equally (all 12) average players.

Hell, I just wish they had at least 25 maps, and not just day/night/winter/fog versions of the current 10.

keep the small maps intact but add larger versions of them, especially for river city on assault. It needs to be expanded.

I like having the smaller original maps. They give more of a frenetic pace to the battle because the battlefield is smaller. Not all battles (historically) happened in the same size area. How about an even smaller map! Instant battle right when you drop in! Don't get me wrong - I want more maps with more variety. Just leave the maps we have now alone.

There would be no need in modifying the small maps if there were no LRM-towers on them in assault-mode. I like the variety of maps and therefore the variety of tactics.
If every map would be large we would only have more LRM-Boats and Poptarts (If this would be possible).
