First Step of Difficulty Identification: Default and Default Pro Playlists

[EraOSBeta]

So last office hours having difficulty identification for maps came up very briefly, and I wanted to suggest a first step for that, but first off,

Context

Tonight on the discord server, someone started a bug report for uhh... "Being able to secure the flag on king of the hill@happy thoughts from under it", I started to explain on how it's balanced but after some time came to the conclusion that it is actually annoying if u haven't mastered the mechanics of flying and airborne fighting, I suggested to stop playing that map and gamemode together but unfortunately that combination is in the default ffa list, there's your context

Solution

I think the default playlists should be changed to only include combinations enjoyed by casual players, while a "Default Pro" playlist could be added that includes more competitive combinations that require some level of game mastery to not be found annoying

That's all, would like to see your opinions on this, also if this gets planned, then use this issue as a place to put combinations that belong in the default pro playlist, goodnight :wave:

Happy birthday, issue #566! Silly aside, I feel the proper fix for this specific issue would be to change the flag's capture region overall to prevent capturing from an area that is not directly at the flag, the only instance where the dislocated hitbox affects gameplay is in Happy Thoughts anyways, and it does look sort of unintended and janky (plus it is really cheap gameplay-wise). I'm super on board on having multiple default playlists too to both have more starting content and show off how playlists can be conformed, and give non-pro players more game variety aside from their 5 free playlist code redeems... the ctf only / sports only playlists don't count, they absolutely suck at doing that.

I'd love to hear the input of other people about this issue / solution(s) as well!
