"I think most people are referring to the freedom of being able to play as they desire on all the default maps in all the default game modes such as Conquest, Rush & Breakthrough."
Okay, sure. But that's a different discussion, sort of. This is what they said:
"So when we will have the ability to do this again? Even if they won’t allow us to earn XP, at least allow us to play in the sandbox a bit after a day of hard work!"
If they want more refined portal options that make it easier to make a custom server that behaves like a regular server, say that's what you want. If you say that what you want is something that already exists, it's hard to figure out what should be changed.
I have rules json files based on ViperAndyStudio's work and conquest map spatial json files and map tscn files. Want something to work off of? Just ask.
