I love Metropolis! I have a 100% win record on that map (as Protoss). I don't have any fps drops either.

I really hope they don't take it out for too long.

OK, why not fix it? It is definitely because of those stupid rocks they added on the islands. They remove cool map, but still leave OLD OLD maps in the map pool. I guess season is over for me.

This sucks... I really like Metropolis, in addition I have not found any lag issues on that map. Hopefully Blizzard will fix it quickly so we can play on it again after it is taken out of the map pool for a while.

I hope they leave it out, metropolis is an awful map, especially after the addition of those stupid rocks.

When will it finally be removed on EU, too?

God I vetoed that map.
PvP leads to Phenix 1 or 2 Base all-in´s which are inconceivable intricate to hold.
PvT is ALWAYS 3-4 tank marine 1 medivac or raven or banshe 1 or 2 base all-in.

And PvZ is broken for Toss. I feel sad for the Zergs. I can easily do forcefield gate pushes and due to FF they lose everything.
Besides that I can also go for a air build into colossi mothership archon. Then one push, a toilet and its over.
Its so difficult for Zerg, even to perform a good 200/200 roach a move at minute 12.

Its a really bad map, I hope it will be removed so I can veto taldarim aswell.

I haven't actually encountered this problem before, which is quite surprising considering I have to run starcraft with graphics on low for my computer to cope. Oh well, I'm not exactly complaining, and I'm glad blizzard is fixing the problem for everyone else.

I hate such "island maps" so i had to veto it anyway. Would like to see the map without island then i would love it.

We have become aware that the recently added Metropolis LE GSL tournament map is causing performance issues for some players. We’ve investigated the cause of these issues, and it has been determined that significant alteration of the map will be required to address them. As a fair and high quality competitive experience is very important to us, it will be necessary to remove the map from the ladder while these issues are resolved. The map is scheduled to be removed from the ladder during next week’s maintenance period. We will be cooperating with the map creator in an effort resolve the performance issues, and we hope to see Metropolis LE return to the ladder in a future season.

For those who still wish to play games on this map, it will continue to remain available via the custom game interface.


Nooooo!!! That map was my sure way to promotion. Bad whiny nerds who have bad computers with fps problems. Bad nerds! shoooo... leave Metropolis alone.

j/k

I thought they'd only remove it for a week or so. The fact that they have to remove it for such a long time is quite bad. It will also make Blizzard think twice now about including community maps. They might have to undergo an extensive testing period now for quality insurance and enough time to add a sufficient amount of destructible debris and rocks.

Edit: highlighting with red and big instead of just b. It's just easier on the eyes. : ) I care about your reading experience.

oh thank god

I lost a game the other day, and it was due to this. I had like 50 fps but the map just died over and over again. It was a miserable experience

is 50fps really bad? i cap mine at 40 because its perfectly smooth at 40 for me o_o


If you had seen a game v-synched on a good monitor at a constant 85 FPS, I doubt you'd say that. The human eye can typically see a little flicker/irregularities up to around 72 Hz. Depends on the person, though.

Indeed those damned 2 core intel optimisations, 50 would be good on any map... My rig burys every other game, but not sc2 cheers blizzard...
Although I hit the map yesterday, no slower than any other for me... and I really like playing it.
