I honestly think the map is shit. Its small, enclosed and it easily gets cluttered with abandoned vehicles and you get dragged into gunfights when they occur whether you like it or not. I generally despise the entire Evocity idea of making tunnels to connect different parts of the city. One way to UM, one way to industrial, one way to city and one way to the rest of the map. It doesn't allow much room for alternate routes or proper police pursuits. Sure it boosts the FPS, but is it worth it? Not in my opinion.
The entire Corleone/Suburbs/Lake area is empty and bare, it's incredibly tacky and not very thought through. So much wasted space that could have gone towards buildings or just pretty much anything. The bar is absolutely useless, the third house doesn't even exist on the actual map and the lake is boring. Such a long drive for a tiny put-n-take lake with no room for any constructions.
Like Santaliz said, the stores around the Main Street are either cluttered with counters, shelves or are just made for ants. The Metro Cafe is absolutely and utterly useless, why would you make hardcoded tables for an RP map.
Now, I haven't played on Pines but I have played on every Evocity map ever made as well as a ton of Rockford variations, Paralake variations and even an unreleased version of TrueNorth. (Same creator as Rockford) and there are a ton of options out there that would offer a much more enjoyable roleplay experience as well as immersion.
V2D is one of the oldest Evocity versions and it just feels like Downtown with a Plus package upgrade.
I would do anything for a map change, ton of servers have figured out ways of optimising their game mode for larger and more enjoyable maps, Fearless should too. I ain't no developer so these last few lines may be full of shit.
That's my two cents.
TL;DR V2D is shit.
