Topic (Sticky) Custom Map Upload Limits Increased
Community Manager
As part of our ongoing efforts to foster a productive and happy StarCraft II mapmaking community, we recently asked players to share their thoughts and ideas on how the custom map system might be improved. Some mapmakers noted that the current limits placed on custom map publishing felt too restrictive and, as a result, made their mapmaking experience less enjoyable.

We've taken this feedback to heart and increased custom map upload limits in two ways. Players are now provided with a total of 10 custom map slots and up to 50 mbs of total map storage space. Ultimately, we want players to be able to share more maps with the community, and we feel these changes will supply mapmakers the additional freedom they need to better flex their creative muscles.

We'll be carefully monitoring how this additional storage is used by players and, as always, will continue to seek your feedback for how we may further improve the Battle.net mapmaking and publishing experience.

"about time"

but seriously that is good to hear, gust the fact that it shows Blizzard is listening is good to know. But I hope that more changes will be made and maybe the limits raised even further, maybe even increasing the limit for users that have a lot of popular maps so those people can make more etc (I can dream).

What about forces system. The trigger that you built to identify what team a player is on doesn't work. So if a map is made to have more then 2 teams then it wont work as intended and players will not group in the game as intended.

Up to 10 Maps and 50mb storage is a great increase

although, I'll be waiting for the map size limit of 10mb increase

ah cool but blizzard it'll be nice if we had the same choice as before when we could upload as many map's as we like, that's what made star craft grate and wonderful powerful map editor and how many grate games that were made myself lone made like more then 1000 grate maps when i was little, star craft 2 is better but i still get feeling i had more fun in star craft custom games like cat and mouse and hero wars grate classic's ^_^ i'd make it myself but the editor got more confusing and lot harder to understand I'm sorry to say it but it kinda killed the editor for me hopefully i'll get it one day but perhaps make second editor for star craft 2 like the same one as star craft but with easier understanding?
