I want players to explore some other maps that are out there rather than resorting to same map in 2v2 as in 3v3 and 4v4.
'other maps'
So your goal is to make people play other maps that are out there.
I assume you mean by that to make people play maps which dont get played much now (unless you just want them to play the other 2 most played maps more, 1 of which is your map nuenen)
Only removing 1 of the top 3 most played 2v2s wil not achieve that goal.
If thats really your goal then you need to remove all 3 of the most played 2v2s (nuenen, church and neuville).
Only THEN people will look at the lesser played maps to play on and 'explore' them.
Just removing one (4pneuville) while keeping your own map (nuenen) in doesnt make any sense.
Seems a bit bullshit reason to me tbh.
'explore'
There is nothing to 'explore'.
The current 2v2 list consist of ancient old maps that have been around for years and years.
The last time a 2v2 was added was 1 year ago in january 2019.
You added no new 2v2 map with this patch which people should 'explore'.
Noone is gonna magically 'explore' Road to Carentan (in since pretty much existence of EIR) because you removed 4pneuville.
'resorting to the same map'
No. Its only visually same.
It doesnt play the same as the 3v3. It plays out differently in 2v2. No1 really hunkers down in the city in 3v3 neuville but in 2v2 they do as its a much stronger position there.
That the map looks similar doesnt matter. All that matters when it comes to maps in EIR is if the map is good, plays well and is popular amongst the community.
3v3 list doesnt have many good options so if people cant find a good map both teams want, neuville is resorted to mostly.
However 2v2 list is different and has plenty of good alternative 2v2 maps to choose from.
If you dont want neuville then suggest a diff one ingame and I assure you people will not have any issue with it.
Outright deleting a good map (I assume we can call it a good map looking at its trackrecord) because it looks visually the same doesnt make sense at all.
'I want'
You shouldnt base your decisions on what YOU want but rather on what the playerbase wants and your goal should be to create a map list with good maps the community likes to play.
In the 10 years of its existence there has never been any widespread complaints by this playerbase about 4pneuville and that it should be removed.
In fact 4pneuville stats suggest the opposite. The playerbase likes to play it, and have over a long period of time. That by itself should be a clear cut reason not to fiddle with it.
