New Maps Introduced to the Global Map

spiderwolf27's Photo spiderwolf27 13 Jun 2012

I love province :) It's like playing chess with tanks. Province has more to do with tactics then just a simple rush which you now see on all the old maps. Perhaps that's why everybody is against it. Sure, it can be one campfest till someone's patience runs out, but hey, next time when I'm joining on province, please go camping and I will become victorious with my team :)

Too bad the netherlands got Redshire. Siegfried Line was pretty ok, but fishermen's bay would have been better ( it's got a dike, a fishersvillage and some windmills ;) Perhaps even Malinovka could do, but Redshire is a bit odd...

I sincerely hope that the next announcement will be that there is a tier restriction as well. So some maps you can only battle in max Tier 8/6, would be logical seeing te tankfreezes of those tiers and lower...

With kind regards,

Spiderwolf

If a worm hits an obstacle in its way it will crush into it another 9 times until it changes the direction.

Lets see how WG does with province ....

Redshire for the Netherlands and Fjords for Belgium. You could just as well have used Mountain Pass. :Smile-angry:

This is not about TC's and random battles... If a clan owns territory with the map Province and they get attacked, it means they may defend their territory on the map Province. If you have 15 decent players, nuff said.

I already wrote extensively on it in topic about 3 weeks brake so just a summary:

1. some map make no sense from a "feeling the place" point of view.
While I can understand Netherlands as redshire (still siegfried line was better), I cannot imagine why Swamp is to be put in:
Posted Image Ireland
Posted Image Northern England

Schleswig-Holstein and Lower saxony also don't feel like to swampy.

2. Gameplay issues.
Putting Province anywhere in a CW map is a bit annoying because you cannot learn the map playing random battles - and driving around in tier 1 tanks doesn't count, since those tanks move with different speed, have good camo and poor view range, are much smaller and so on and so on.
So it requires testing it extensively on training battles, changing CW from fun to work.

And that should disqualify Province even if it was a good map. And it definitely is not.

But..... using it 10 times on the clan wars map? In the rpovinces that are either landing zones or on the front line (because they are close to multiple landing zones)? That's insane!
There will be 5 cliffs, 4 Karelias, 4 Siegfried lines, 5 Redshires, 4 Erlenbergs and 10 Provinces?

Also, the only reason to put Province map was to add Italian character to some map - like abbey was supposed to be greek monastery, province to be italian village in appenines.  So finally Italy and Spain wouldn't have the same setr of map.Instead of that w got Province mixed everywhere....

I'm happy only with reducing number of westfields (even if "our" westfields are still westfields :( ), but siegfried line, himmelsdorf, abbey, erlenberg are better maps then their replacements.



But hey - what do we expect?
Guys who make decisions have no idea about CW, since they are forbidden to play in it.
At the same time they really think their ideas are the best and anything they see as an idea or demand from commmunity is an evil thing for them.
Cause they are here to rule, not to listen.
We've seen it enough times already.

I feel so sorry for the clans having to fight through Province map...
Also some of those places getting swamp should perhaps get the american map instead?

Jutland is mentioned as being changed to Fishermans Bay, which make sense imo.

However it is still shown as Cliff on Global Map.

But hey they only had 3 weeks to "properly" implement it, as they mention.

Why u change the map like Prohorovka???
U put one flag over the rails...3 ways to enter it...like always all your maps...SAD!!!

The map was quite fine,now we have to camp the whole map and the other team that have 2 cap the flag is always loosing
That wot system decides let us win and lose for 50% is another crappy gameplay of WOT

sorry,but this game is far away from good online games
Game ends sucks also :
its always 15-1 or close by that or the kills are even 5-5 going to =>> 11-12 =>etc
