Any one else mini map not working properly? Grids don't match up so I cant see my own sector (no mods used)

 

That part works fine for me,

I already picked Emil and it feels worse than the regular one.
My point is that I will rather stop playing frontlines regardless of the credits, experience and all the good stuff just so I don't ever see this map ever again.

 

It has bad layout, bad covers, way too much open spaces, you are forced to long range shooting, 350+ meters where then rng screws you so badly you want to unplug the computer.

Almost any position you pick has aiming bugs so you can't even aim, much less hit, 6th sense does not trigger.
 

My average rank on Normandy is Major, on this one Lieutenant, barely....

Seriously, almost at the point to deserting to garage as soon as I see the loading screen for it.
Luckily I am almost done with 5 levels remaining, but if I didn't have boosters, I would have already quit

Scrub my previous comment, I actually enjoyed the new map tonight and got to grips with it. Had a monster game where I did near 15k damage using mostly my Somua but was one shot off general and that was frustrating as hell!   On Kraftwerk, too.  Just need to play it, learn it, use the right vehicles and have a little luck as always. I reached prestige nine playing mostly Kraftwerk tonight and used only one booster so I have 9 left for the last tier.

Anyone else missing the FL personal reserve bonuses? I'm missing them from like one battle out of three?!

 

It can be the first game, that I win and play from beginning to end so I don't really see any reason for this. Lost probably something like 7k worth FL points this season already.

In the game, mouse over the minimap, hold left ctrl and scroll up or down to get the FULL minimap

As i mentioned in another thread. The map is great and something different compared to the others.

BUT...

The maprotation is more annoying than refreshing. I swear i have like 70-80% of all battles on the new map (before i came here to write about it, my first 3 battles for tonight was all on the new map). As i said, it is refreshing with a new map but keep it real guys. You don't have to set the rotation so high it feels like it is the ONLY map in rotation = incredibly annoying and frustrating. The problem is that the maps in rotation are too few = you can't set a rotation number that high because the new map totally dominates.

*EDIT* 4 in a row now. Started next battle 1s after the post...haha

FL experience so far - Countless ghost shots going straight trough the tanks (or at least where I see them), countless invisible hit boxes. Playing on ridges hitting the very ridge and shooting at the ground.

Thank god we have animated Offspring, that fixed everything. :teethhappy: O yeah, and it feels really great when you load gun 13 seconds then bounce off wheeled vehicle COUNTLESS TIMES.

I get the new map I would say 4 out of 5 games. Just had 3 games in a row on it, hit major in all three and am now loving this new map, think it is actually awesome, frankly and much needed!  But yeah, the rotation is pushing it on us too hard.

Then you wonder why WG never ever listens to us:ohmy:

Skooby, the new map is great but my previous comment was maybe not right. Just remembered the 5 month wait for consumables only for them to hit us with the 25% nerf and then to follow it up again with the same and that despite how much people were unhappy about it and the fuss they made. :(

Map rotation is spot on. No seriously, if you need a reason to quit it's perfect.

Am I the only one who is disappointed with AE phase 1 and thinks it was not worth the grind?

Beautifull map from the realistic and artistic point of view. (I wait for announced ray tracing)

Also these frontline boosters make me forget about the pain of first seasons grinding.

Good job here wg.

Well I managed to get General on it tonight.so maybe not that bad, just a case of learning a new map. 

(and this is from someone playing arty,  all those high buildings and cliffs are a nightmare)

Please balance the map ratio. Right now, you are either 80% on the old map or 80% on the new one. How about a 50/50%?! And 1 battle defense, 1 battle offense. That would actually be a good balance.
