What would you think about a 120-player SG1 and SG2?

As I listened to the developer Q&A yesterday, someone asked about adding more 120-player maps. Chad was enthusiastic about this idea, noting the community welcomed the 120-player server with open arms.

This meant that 120-player servers are most likely here to stay, and it needs more maps.

So, @The Arena Master and I thought “Since SG3 is the only 120-player map, why not make SG1 and SG2 120-player?” (Possibly SG4 and SG5 as well? That would be interesting.)

It won’t take long, but we wanted your thoughts & opinions on this.
Would you like to see a 120-player SG1 and SG2? (and/or SG4 & SG5?)
If so,
where would you like to see the pedestals?

EDIT:
@Denster91 is also helping build.

I would enjoy seeing them as 120 player servers.

I would just expand the corn for the pedestals.

Not SG2, but with SG 1 you can easily get screwed with your starting spot. It would be decent size though. I want a 120 Vida Cova.

I personally don't like Vida Cova. It just seems like a big maze to me. (It isn't even an SG map right now, but SG1 and SG2 are.) But you could get screwed with your starting spot on SG3 as well, though. Sometimes, you're right next to land, and sometimes you have a lot of water in front of you. You just have to get lucky.

I personally enjoy 120 player servers and they were some of the main servers I played on back when they were here originally. I think a 120 player SG1 would work pretty well if they could figure out a good was to place the podiums in a suitable position. I don't think SG2 would work out as easily. SG4 definitely wouldn't work as a 120 player map considering it is way too small and I think SG5 might be a tad too compact in some places to be a 120 player map.

That's what I don't like about 120s, you can get completely screwed.

I personally think that 120 player maps should be deved from scratch there are 3 being built at the moment as far as I know so I don't think that there should be any conversions of smaller maps into 120 player maps. Here is why each sg map wont work. SG1 the map is not balanced in anyway people would spawn on land and be able to hit a few tier 2 chests before some people even made it to land. SG2 is probably the best one to go with but honestly the map is too small for a good 120 player game. SG4 is just way too small. SG5 isn't the best of maps in the first place and it has alot of tier 2 chests around the edge of the map so some people would be able get a quick tier 2 and kill quite alot of people.
The reason 120 player games are so good is because after a hectic start the games quickly start to emphasise the survival element of the game. I'm not sure any of the SG maps other than SG3 would get that great gameplay style.

Sorry for the long post :p

Its a good idea, however I would rather have newer maps, SG1 and 2 are bit boring and plain like every other map.

It would be kind of crazy, but I think it would be pretty cool. Since there isn't really enough room for 120 pedestals on each map, I think there could be a SG5 kind of center where you jump into water. Or you could do what the Fallen Empire did and have more than one center. And another thought to go with The Fallen Empire idea: 4 identical domes with 30 players in each. Everyone of those has a DM and each winner of those get teleported to a mega-awesome-fun time DM arena. My idea is crazier than 120 matches. lol.
