So, looking at all the maps... very few fall under these two categories.
For far range you really only have First Light. I would count Bastion, but the majority of the combat is focused in the center point which is completely covered. Very few players venture on the outskirts of the map where long range battles can occur.
Next, for close range we only (at least for now) have that Mercury map. Exodus Blue falls under this category, but only PS users have access to it, at the moment.
Every other map is predominantly mid-ranged focused. Perfect for the Suros "f*** my a**" Regime.
The point is, this game feels like it suffers from the Call if Duty bug where each map's gameplay feels boringly similar.
We could really use another map like Guardian (Halo 3) that is a close range map with wonderful verticality or Blood Gultch (Halo 1) that's long range and wide open.
Side note: more long range maps means actual value to the sniper rifles. Seriously, only one map for snipers?
What do you think?

I like the idea. I was thinking a bit more variety would be better as well. I miss my blood gulch style maps.
