From a mapping perspective it might be useful actually. Being able to see quickly how your map looks and feels in HR for example would be pretty cool.
There have been a few instances where players demanded the mapper to change mapping to satisfy passing on a certain mod. I think the most famous case was when there was drama between HR players and Monstrata over the butter fly slider in the aspire Transformation map. Luckily it had a pretty elegant solution, but I don't think that would always be the case. If there would not have been an elegant solution, HR players wouldn't have let that map go through to ranked. What to take away from this is that if enough players point out that they want to be able to do a map with a certain mod, odds are the map will have to be changed to accommodate the mod. This would mean maps are meant to suit certain mods.-Aku wrote:
But also, maps aren't meant to be made to suit a certain mod, so if editors get an easy chance to use mods in the editor, I feel like it would have minor negative concequences on mapping. (Maps that are supposed to play with a mod)
