Ideas for Mapping

I don't know if it has been come up yet, but here's a poll for some mappers who don't know what to map. Mappers will get an idea what the interest are from the (mapping) community.

I would like to see:

A 'Bling-Bling' map, westcoast/eastcoast gangstah shootouts ;) (cn3 maybe..lol)
A 'Transformers' map/mod... haha (hard)
And finally something similar to the Monkeystrike mod for Halflife!

I'd like to se "other"... the ones above has been done, brilliantly, many times already.

Think up something new. A new game mode. A new environment. A new mood. Think new.

Examples: The Hood ( sumo ), Clone factory ( bobzilla )...

Other.....Like large open outdoor maps. They are really rare. Our mod HitP will feature many of these :)

I say more jungle maps. When I say more jungle maps, I mean big, open maps with lots of foliage (yes I know its hard to do), and LOTS of opportunities for sneaking. I remember when DoD was still beta, and in the next update, they added para maps. One of the maps was "para_hedgegrow", and it was basically a nighttime sneaking map, and I must say sneaking is very fun! If any of you ever play battlefield 1942 with me, you'll most likely see me sneaking a lot. 8-)

I think, nowadays if you make a Mohaa map you have to make quality stuff. In spite of its theme, there's always room for a new map, as long as it's all well executed. Make maps that are up to par with the standard maps. Or at least try to. I know, easier said than done. But for instance if you make a southern France style map that isn't as good as the original, people will just play southern France. Same goes for every theme I guess.
Personally I like the desert-theme alot, but I will still enjoy a nicely done snow/village/mountain/trench/you-name-it map.
