Obviously the community wants change cause no one likes playing on the same map for 3 years. 
(We had a 4month break of Rockford fair enough)
We need something fresh and new, or at some point people are gonna get bored and leave it's inevitable.

It's is not necessary that the police have to find everything. They do not find every single bit of contra in real life as well. Especially in a city it should be quite easy to hide stuff.

  Regarding the lack of hubs that some have pointed out, I believe that there are multiple hubs where people can meet, which is nice if you want to do shady stuff while not being in the spotlight.

The City Hall plaza and the Southside Park on the Eastside

The Suburbia Center on the Northside

Additionally, this map brings back nostalgic memories of playing GTA IV and reminds me of simpler times, when life was easier and when free time was endless. Just thought I'd add that.

Edit: I also realized that finally, we could do proper Hitman roleplay with rooftops and windows you can shoot out from. No more having to hide at the end of the street. Criminal Roleplayers rejoice!

Last time you were this passionate about a map, we nearly crumbled because of it... pls dont jinx

• Detailed interiors with many props already there for those who just want a plug-and-play experience
  
• A detailed, immersive urban enviroment
  
• Interactive enviroment
  
• New opportunities for urban roleplay
  
• No dead-end roads
  
• Opportunities for more "manhunt" against criminals and less shootouts and dead-ends
  

• No open spaces to build custom dupes (big issue)
  
• Too many prebuilt props which takes away options to customize areas to your liking
  
• A lack of greenery or an outdoors area, basically ending "Green RPs" and clans such as Marsh's United States Forest Service
  
• A lack of one single main spot to hang out (which even NYC has IRL, such as Broadway, Times Square, Central Park)
  
• Map could endorse contrabasing if not countered by a new system
  

1. Map rotation, which might take time from our developers to implement, taking time away from current projects
   
2. Map customizing, which would require someone with know-how and skills for map making and first and foremost, written permission from the map owner (I'd like to point out that Divey from FL has already tried contacting him)
