I14 - New constructions
I think you think the MA is something it isn't. You can't 'construct maps' for starters, so you can't build layouts the way you'd like.
The level of gameworld customisation you're asking for is very desirable, but probably impractical in a game like this.

Is that possible to make missions like you can make bases? I mean somethin like, put rooms and stuff into the rooms etc... Thats the creator what I'm waiting.
If the creator is something like: select map type, select mobs and finally write some backrounds then it will nothing more than crappy disappointment.
Prunejuice is warriors drink.
Custom maps will not be available at launch. They may be added at some point in the future.
I really should do something about this signature.

It's likely to be more than that, but you will not be able to build your own map either. It's odd how not being able to design the map suddenly means that all you can do is select map, mobs and write some text.
Personally, if they handed us the base editor as a mechanism for creating mission maps, I'd laugh in their face. It will take huge amounts of effort to produce the kind of map editor you are looking for, Zachary.

Unless I'm mistaken, those are all single-player or networked P2P games, yes? The technical and logistical problems involved in doing the same kind of thing for an MMO are substantially greater.
Don't get your hopes up.

Plus, of course, you can select from literally any map currently in the game, I believe.

Also the "unique" maps that are lurking around in TFs/special Story Arcs
This needs to be in suggestions under updates for the normal zones. Bring some life to the city by making it workable. Include those buildings that should be in a city.
- The Italian Job: The Godfather Returns #1151
Beginner - Encounter a renewed age for the Mook and the Family when Emile Marcone escapes from the Zig!
- Along Came a... Bug!? #528482
Average - A new race of aliens arrives on Earth. And Vanguard has you investigate them!
- The Court of the Blood Countess: The Rise of the Blood Countess #3805
Advanced - Go back in time and witness the birth of a vampire. Follow her to key moments in her life in order to stop her! A story of intrigue, drama and horror! Blood & Violence... not recommend to solo!
With Day Jobs coming in I13 and access to Mission Creator in I14, I started thinking about certain new buildings/constructions that would make Paragon City a more varied place to live and work both in and out of costume.
If it will be possible to create layouts both internally and externally it would add a lot more depth to the existing zones. Maybe the designer could have the honour of naming the new construction type and/or it's placement, e.g. the John Smith Memorial Library or McLeod Hotels.
These new sites offer the benefits of potential new day jobs and new contacts, possibly with special story interests, and maybe in alater issue could provide the secret entrance to your supergroup base. Imagine going into the fitting room of Moss Boutique, pressing a switch and entering the base of the Paragon Fashionista supergroup.
They might also provide a way of increasing advertising revenue by companies sponsoring certain in-game businesses, so that we had Barclays Bank branches being raided or Honda Car Showrooms being vandalised.
Some suggestions I've come up with are :
Fire Station - we have other emergency services but not this at the moment, although fire fighting badges are available.
Religious Buildings - I know this may be controversial but think of the scenes in Daredevil, X2 & Batman Movies and imagine a COH/COV mass battle there.
Cinema - I know the outside already exists but designing the inside could make for another interesting venue

I hope this makes some sort of sense and would be interested for other peoples ideas.
Decent people shouldn't live here. They'd be happier someplace else.
