I defeated!
(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); I was just wondering, I opened a Xbox Patch with FFViewer 2.65 and found a file called basemaps.arena. I opened it and found the names of the maps and under each map has "preview_mp_*mapname*". We can edit the *mapname* to something like vertigo. In the lobby, the picture is Vertigo (and possibly the name) and the map played is highrise.

Seems plausible.

this should work then since we can load up different pictures as a map like shipment lol it should work to change the map names

Step 1:
open your FF up in FFViewer

Step 2:
Open the "mp/basemaps.arena" file within FFViewer

Step 3:
wear it says "mapimage", after that it should say something like: "preview_mp_highrise"
What you are going to do is change the preview_ part to one of the other previews that you see in there, here is a list of them:

    
"preview_mp_invasion"
"preview_mp_highrise"
"preview_mp_checkpoint"
"preview_mp_nightshift"
"preview_mp_favela"
"preview_mp_quarry"
"preview_mp_brecourt"
"preview_mp_derail"
"preview_mp_subbase"
"preview_mp_underpass"
"preview_mp_estate"
"preview_mp_rundown"
"preview_mp_boneyard"
"preview_mp_terminal"
"preview_mp_rust"
"preview_mp_storm"
"preview_mp_compact"
"preview_mp_complex"
"preview_mp_crash"
"preview_mp_overgrown"
"preview_mp_abandon"
"preview_mp_fuel2"
"preview_mp_trailerpark"
"preview_mp_vacant"
"preview_mp_strike"


Now, change it and save! Now your done!

You can also change the text in the same file! Enjoi!


And the secret maps are:

mp_shipment
mp_oilrig
mp_fuel
mp_vertigo
mp_gulag

How can it be that there are REAL pics from these maps? Like shipment, why is there a pic from shipment?

Because they were obviously used for the game in some way then possibly revoked.
