Asymmetric Maps

[:1]I'm sick of symmetry, and all I know of that isn't is the Dune map and the few ones based on real locations such as Australia and the world.
It cannot be true that out of all maps ever made for this game there's only like 4 that have spine enough to be asymmetric, can it?
Prove me wrong if you can. Much appreciated!|||I am excited that there will be a new person making awesome asymmetrical maps for everyone to enjoy. Looking forward to your good work, BmB, it's sorely needed, as you can see.|||I don't think he was saying he was going to make any... just that he's looking for them.|||I think he's trying to be cheeky, like if asymmetric was a curse word or something.|||Balance of Play
To ensure that a map can be played fairly in team games the map needs to be balanced.
Mapmakers would normally aim for symmetry because asymmetry would favor some start positions in a random spawn game. Symmetry is the easy way to obtain balance.
There are two types of map asymmetry:
Resources - markers
Landform - height map

Using a combination of these 2 elements a map can be asymmetrical and still be balanced.
Or it can be made deliberately unbalanced to felicitate 2 x 3, or 2 x 4 matches where two good players go against 4 noobies.
What type of asymmetry are you looking for in a game? Or are you complaining about maps that are copy/invert/paste exact opposing landforms?
I can think of quite a few maps that have asymmetrical landform:
3 on 2.v0001
Mass is almighty v5.v0001
Point of reach v3.v0001
Thehive.v0001
Thornbay.v0001 – my map – released
Stealth Ports.v0001 – my map - released
Highground – my map - not released
Libya - my map - not released
There are not as many maps with asymmetrical resources:
3 on 2.v0001
Mass is almighty v5.v0001
Libya - my map - not released – this is the only map I have made that has unequal resources.
roj|||I'm in want of maps that pose unique tactical and strategic challenges and benefits to each player.
For example, a map actually in the game, Haven Reef, despite being geometrically symmetrical, the central island and the outlying islands are different gameplaywise. So in a 3 or 4 player FFA or a 2v2 depending on how you set up the spawns, the map is effectively assymetrical. It's not much but it's a start.
|||BmB|||Nearly all my maps are asymmetrical in some way with quirky landforms, although the overall map will still be balanced playwise. One of my latest maps ‘Libya’ had deliberately unbalanced resources and people didn’t like it. So I modified it to be more balanced.
These maps are surely asymmetrical:
Thornbay
ELEnin
Libya
Highground
All are now released.

Close to the smallest map, holds 8 players.

Largest map 8 player version also has a 4 player version available in the pack.

I believe you will find a map that is challenging among them.
