Maihon Players 229 posts 7,274 battles Report post # Posted June 14, 2018 Just wanted to ask: (a) how many maps there are in this game? (b) how are they chosen (I seem to see the same maps 3 or 4 times in a day), at random or does the result of your last battle have a bearing? (c) why do some maps only seem to appear for higher tiers? (d) is there the hope of a lot more new maps at some point soon? (e) lastly, the map squares do they have a specific scale i.e. 1 square = 2 km ? Thanks Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

More or less random 18 minutes ago, Maihon said: (c) why do some maps only seem to appear for higher tiers? Maps are limited for what tier plays in them, mostly bcuz of their size Keep in mind that only the top tier ships have to fit the "requirement" (for example Ocean is t10 map, but t8 and t9 ships still play in it as long as the 10s got it) 19 minutes ago, Maihon said: (d) is there the hope of a lot more new maps at some point soon? "A lot" - probably no, not on any kind of "short" or even "medium" length timescale New maps overall? Probably, one gets released every now and then Last one released was Sleeping Giant, I think Atlantic was the one before it... Takes a while generally 21 minutes ago, Maihon said: (e) lastly, the map squares do they have a specific scale i.e. 1 square = 2 km ? It's 1/10 of the maps edges length, so anything between 2.4 and 4.8 km depending on the map Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

If you pay a little attention, you will also note that the range circles around your ship "look" much bigger on the smaller maps and vice versa. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
