There's “large map” and then there's large map. What you have there is some 3500 km across. This should be compared to the maybe 800-900km we generally see in the largest of DCS maps, and even then, a huge portion of that consists of empty or low-detail voids, but the map stretches out simply because one of the corners have a bit of detail to it and the whole thing needs to be a rectangle. All other corners go unfurnished and unpopulated. Any longer distance and the decorated area needs to be more narrow, or just be a lot of empty sea for convenience's sake.

Cut that down to a 16th and you get something the game can possible handle and present in a meaningful and interesting way.

I realize it's a large map. I'm hoping for the day that DCS leaves it's tendency to being a hardware hog behind, so we can have even nicer things. Including more maps that'll run your tanks dry.

In the last bigger interview Wags stated that (as far as I remember) the 10+ year future goal is a world map anyway. Hopefully it will not be flat as the other maps^^
What they are going to do with the maps that are out now, no idea, but I hope they might be able to recylce them and use them as higher resolution patches on a satellite image world.

A bit like MSFS and its world updates.

I just discovered this thread; I really like a map of this type/style. Hope can we have one soon.
