Debatable.
SC2 units almost feel like they are sliding on ice and are actively repelling each other rather that pathing to avoid collisions

agree, i feels more like a trick to make units not collide, instead of just having good pathfinding

This City is actually a playable map in SupCom2 AFAIK.

I havent played SC2, does pathfinding work ok on that map?

What does that add to the game? The Infinite War was supposed to just be random brawls through the entire universe no? Additionally more structures = more bumper-tanks.

FA intro has a battle that takes place in a city.

a bit off topic but
If I look at a map like that, it looks quite uninhabitable and hazardous for human life, so until the planet can be terraformed colonists would live on these small mini-cities surrounded by a large shield, inspired from Spore:

you should try adding small mini cities like these around here and there that, would be a nice backstory for any maps like colonists
trying to have a new life on a newly discovered planet whilst 2 factions fight over it.

I have checked them out, however they only have textures no actual civilian structures, it doesn't have this city-ish feeling I'm talking about, imo these maps look pretty bad

EDIT: A good example would be any of the C&C's blue zone maps
