[MMI-A] Nufessa Players 88 posts 6,393 battles Report post #1 Posted June 29, 2019 Hi everybody, playing on islands of ice during this days I was thinking how they changed this map. For me last configuration is not that bad but a little anonymous. It has no particular characteristics and seems like many other maps in this game. So I wanted to know if you would like to reintroduce the first layout of this map as an alternative. For me it was great, I particularly liked the archipelago area with a lot of low islands in south east. Let me know your thoughts 14 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Prospect_b Players 2,655 posts 14,103 battles Report post #4 Posted June 29, 2019 The only thing I wish for is them removing the epicancer mode from this map. But yea, OP is right, older iterations were more interesting than what we have now. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
[SLAPP] lameoll Players 1,785 posts 10,392 battles Report post #5 Posted June 29, 2019 i dont mind the new map. the old one was great as well. The weird thing is that they have become 2 completely different maps. i mean you could put in the old one and the new one and have 2 maps not remotely the same. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
[MMI-A] Nufessa Players 88 posts 6,393 battles Report post #6 Posted June 29, 2019 The main feature of that map was the possibility to have close quarter combats between those islands. I still remember it was an off limits area for BBs during the old days of 20km Shima and no radar for cruisers. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
[ALONE] Smeggo Modder 2,437 posts 14,945 battles Report post #7 Posted June 29, 2019 I'd prefer the even older version of the map, without the islands in the middle. That would be a nice variety Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
[UNICS] Solo_Wing_Potato Players 317 posts 7,712 battles Report post #8 Posted June 29, 2019 Would love for the map to make a return, still fondly remember chuckling to myself while I watched BB's sailing round the 2 Islands in the north. Seriously though this was a good map. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

After that it turned into vertical island line, and now we have the current version. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Then I would vote for the second version. Some empty space is nice. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Some empty space is nice. Personally I liked that "island fiesta" alot, how every battle usually started with BBs going up in battlelines, exchanging salvos with each other. I Remember how I got my first ever die hard when zigzaging around those islands with Yamato, and a NC rammed into me Spoiler Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
[THESO] MrWastee Players 3,718 posts 30,410 battles Report post #13 Posted June 29, 2019 imo they should bring back all versions of this map! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
[R7S] lovelacebeer Players 3,415 posts 22,759 battles Report post #14 Posted June 29, 2019 I did enjoy the old iteration and I would like it to return, however I thought the reason they changed it was that most players found it too complicated with the open space.

[TORAZ] El2aZeR Beta Tester 15,576 posts 23,620 battles Report post #16 Posted June 29, 2019 Honestly all they needed to do was to make the map a bit smaller, cutting off the potato spots top left and bottom right. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
[TACHA] triumphgt6 Players 1,724 posts 20,303 battles Report post #17 Posted June 29, 2019 Agree - was a brilliant map - I liked the narrow passages and then coming into different arenas. The present one seems just like all the others now. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
