I guess that's cool.  But I feel like it would be more for the people who are designers.... not artists(me).  But I'll be sure to check it out.

Dont worry they will be plenty of tutorials made by Relic and the Community.

True.

With so many maps and many bugfixes and new features. I wonder what more can anyone ask.

I believe this is the only GFWL game that had the largest update.

Do you check their site/forums daily? You dont even have the game. Please tell me you do not have that much free time on your hands to report to us on a game you dont even own. Find a hobby sir!

BUT lets say 

 

player A downloads map 1 and creates custom game \

 

player B doesnt have map 1 can he join  game \ and autodownload (like in WC3) map 1

 

also this question applies to player made skins/sounds/effects with custom games 

 

does GFWL allow this?

 

if it does = win

 

if it doesnt = fail

Theres no LIVE title that auto-downloads custom maps. The dev in that post points why they arent doing it.

Thats to bad tho :(

But at least there trying to find a better solution:

"We are looking for a better long term 'community map sharing' solution but it won't be available with the release of There is Only War. Initially you will have to share maps manually."
