For all of you out there that have been entrenched in Crysis 2 Multiplayer for a long time now, I'm sure you share the same sentiment about the built in maps. They are getting BORING.
On three of my servers I have recently downloaded, installed and tested out some new maps from different sources to try and freshen things up and play new maps. All of these maps are readily available and are easy to download and install. I will provide links for all of the maps in this message. I picked them for different reasons. I wanted some that would cater to skill building (sniper training, etc) and I wanted some maps that are designed and laid out very well for big matches.
On server The Kill Factory #02 [Ignition] is the WaR_SPiRiT Ignition map pack. A great mix of maps that offer large theatre to small confines to really test your skill.

For now I have decided on two of the maps out of this package: Skidrow and Italy. Both of these need a lot of players on them. They have a good layout and have a variety of weapons available throughout the maps at your disposal.
** UPDATE: Also just added to the PGL Map server is another map available on Crydev.net called MP_Warehouse.

http://www.crydev.net/viewtopic.php?f=309&t=70021*EDIT*: I broke these down further to have SniperAim and Training on a server by themselves.
The Kill Factory #09 [Training] is tasked just for doing training.
** UPDATE: Added to the Training serer is an interesting map called Crysis 2 Killbox V2. Perfectly suited for the training server. Like the Sniper Aim map, it's basic but is perfect for player training.

To aide in navigating this site, I highly recommend you use Google Chrome for it's ability to translate languages. I only know a few words in Russian, so this comes in very handy.
The maps you will want to download is NYC Park, Cafe, Poolday and Shipment.

They are all easy to install, in fact some have auto install packages, and they will not mess up your game. I installed all of these and tested them out with other players before deciding on which maps to use.
**EDIT: I created a web page to give a all-at-once look at my server stats using GameTracker.
