I thought at one point this was something that actually was available.

This needs to be a option for private lobby please. Would be extremely helpful to get new players trained in, instead of them being totally de-moralized by the total stomping they get after waiting a hour to get into a actual faction play map.

Honestly i agree, There is a certain level of skill required for this. And Mechs are needed to be able to fight for extended periods of time. You cannot bring a high burst low ammo mech into this and expect to do well. Also there needs to be a better incentive in regards to playing it. But having a private lobby for training regarding maps for Factions would be benificial for the players and the comunity as a whole.

[Luthander]

I agree with these statements.

[Zadokka]

Map availability is a good idea.

I could swear it was as well, and through a "Siege" and/or "Invasion" option under that "Game Mode" selector's list. I guess we're both left asking what happened?

Agreed. You get my...
SUPPORT!
...on this matter! It needs to be more than mere Testing Grounds access for this stuff.

I agree with this 100%. It would be a good way to practice with friends and unit mates in order to better understand the FP maps.

I fully agree with this. Even for people who do quick drops often faction is challenging because we do not know the maps very well

Yes, I also Agree with the OP Statement this is something we really need to help advance ourselves in this game with FP Content.

I would like to Point out that PGI is doing FP events to get more people interested in FP, Would that goal not be furthered along if people could actually call up the Maps in Private lobby to explore and practice them to help make the overall experience better?

I also Agree with all the statements made her, this is something we SHOULD have access to!
