I would say that DPB is better than Max'd, if only because most people have a PC(to try it on) plus it would be easier to get the dimensions down.

Knocking stuff up in the field designer of max'd is easier than fricking around in worldcraft and then compiling then distributing the map.
Maybe when someone does a PB mod for Source I might try doing some mapping on that.
But Max'd wouldnt give you exact dimensions in terms of field size...so if you want the most exact way...then you gotta put the time in.
To be honest, any form of digital mocking up of a field can't even come close to setting up the field on a training ground and walking it properly. Getting too precious over exact measurements is getting yourself into an losing battle. You just can't simulate the stances and the near infinite number of angles and perspectives generated from doing things like pushing back the edge of bunkers.
Although not ideal Max'd is a lot more accurate in terms of this simulation than the Quake/HL engine.

Arc shots, blind shots etc...require a degree of lobbing...is that really possible..apart from at teh back, to teh opposite back, on small fields?
