Recently, my opinions towards the size and scale of WCA have changed, I often play on the map and, for a map of its size, is quite full of interesting areas. I even discover new places around the map that I haven't played yet, after three years! My only problem is the fact that the city is one mesh, which is really inefficient! Even the slightest optimisation of the map would be welcome!
The mesh from what I recall is being divided for optimization, this was discussed in the other thread too. Not sure what the ETA is for this but the map is being worked on.
