Map Editor rating is wildly inaccurate
I am new to the map editing community and I am completely having fun with this. My experience with the Far Cry Series is limited to the latest edition....Far Cry 4. I am very lucky to have met through xbox one and 360 some very talented editors...Once I viewed their maps, I was completely floored with their creation vs. what is known to be "high play" 4 or 5 star maps. The game is enjoyable, your map editor is enjoyable...what's not enjoyable is being forced to play "top" maps that should not even be allowed to be uploaded. Before knowing these really good maps, I was forced to play maps with absolutely no texturing, grid terrains with a big hole full of animals waiting to be blown up by multiple guns placed around the hole. This can hardly be what you had in mind.
Allowing anyone to play and rate is hard to control. I get it. But I really hope you are reading some of these threads and are working on a solution because a person like me would have thought that not much else was possible to make other than these...rather bad maps.
I was always taught...don't come complaining to the table without something that could be helpful. There is a lot of us who play...young and older...only a few of you. Surely you can monitor the "top" maps...see that they are severely lacking and simply remove them...categorize them as "high play but simple." You can also monitor the "downgraded maps" and completely see some of these are deserving of a LOT of recognition. Maybe a Far Cry list of "recommended play" maps. I understand you won't hit them all but the system in place right now is pretty much missing them all. It is most important that the "top" rated maps actually be the maps that can be accessed by a new guy...like me.
