Why can't you upload your own map to verified game modes?

I tried making my own map to help with the 200m headshot challenge. I put the spawn points 200m apart with some cover for sniping and restricted the weapons to snipers. Also removed spotting so people can't steal kills so easily. No bots just players sniping each other. And no vehicles or explosives etc.

Then I couldn't upload it to a verified game mode and now there is no xp or challenge/assignment progress...

What is the idea in making a map that has no progress. It is not some bot farm but an actual map. The game doesn't have good sniper maps like previous battlefields did. I just want a map for sniping, thats all. Why even add the hard sniper challenge if the game isn't good for long range sniping? Only a couple of spots for long range sniping exist in all of the multiplayer maps.

Also it would be great to be able to change the terrain and buildings. I would love to make a forest/farmland map with lots of cover. Not just city warfare or open deserts/fields like the  existing maps have.

    Agreed. Taking away all progression (other than player rank XP... and who cares about that?) makes spending a ton of time making something a complete waste of time.  We were baited and switched. People spent a bunch of time making something cool that they though people would enjoy, but now no one will even play it because what they need most is to unlock things.  It completely kills portal.

    Even worse, there are a bunch of potential verified modes missing. So, if you want to make a deathmatch server, it is custom (don't have any other option) and even if you have no botting or farming mechanics, it gets no progression and no one plays it. But, on the other hand, a "verified" breakthrough map with bots without guns gets full unlock progression.  It's just dumb. Just put all the vanilla defaults that all the official servers use as an option for verified servers in portal (not ONLY rush, conquest, and breakthrough). Don't MAKE people "use" custom scripts even if they are empty.  Instead, moderate the farming based on if servers are ACTUALLY using custom scripts and if servers are ACTUALLY making bot farms by making bots dumb, unable to do stuff, or unarmed.

    EA is throwing the baby out with the bathwater, and then completely ignoring the problem that still remains.  How does that saying go?
