Default Please stop making big maps

Maps like tbd_asteroid, would be good maps, if they weren't so big. You end up spending most of your time searching the entire map for opponents. Please make maps no bigger than tbd_lostcity. Thanks.

i agree we need some smaller maps but personally i like some of the big ones means longer games.

Point well taken, I agree searching for someone to kill is no fun. I personally disagree that tbd_asteroids is too big, but I wouldn't probably go any bigger. I think it's right on the edge of what's good.

Just for comparison, tbd_asteroids is 3700x1280. Compared to tbd_cave which is 3584x1280 it is only ~110 pixels wider. I think the perceived difference is that I suspect there are more flyable areas in tbd_asteroids than in tbd_cave.

the bases in cave are also pretty far from the screen edge.
