One of the big features that's a part of Blizzard's hit sci-fi RTS sequel StarCraft II is the ability for people to create custom maps and share them with friends. However many of the game's players have complained that StarCraft II limited the number of custom maps for each player to just five slots. Also the total storage space for maps was placed at just 25 MB.

Blizzard has decided to make custom map making and publishing easier for StarCraft II players. On the game's official web site Blizzard has announced that it has doubled the number of custom map slots to 10. More importantly the amount of storage space for custom maps has also doubled to 50 MB. That should allow map makers the freedom to do things like import more custom art and sounds to their StarCraft II map creations.
