New maps in the pipeline?

[Moosebloke]

Morning Chaps,

 

does anyone know if there are new maps in the pipeline?

 

 

[Lootboxer]

I doubt as WG does not sell maps in a prem shop it's very low priority.

They have been asked multiple times during the live streams each week.
The response given has been

Currently the devs are working on updating the current maps doing the underwater detailing for the eventual implementation of submarines.
Until that is done they are not working on new maps

So this means until the Subs release they won't make any new map.

I wish they were but I seriously doubt it they are only interested in shoving subs in to the game and they will be putting all their effort into building the underwater environment of the existing maps.

Probably one called "Pipeline" with an underwater tunnel through the middle of a large island for subs.

i always wanted new maps ... But now i hope they never make new maps!

Maps can't be monetized so they are unlikely to be a priority for WG.

Certainly sounded that way sadly

After subs release i suspect there will be a swathe of players leaving. Its not like when CV rework arrived, its going to make the game flat out boring. More ships you cant shoot at and cruisers with airstrikes from behind islands... Yeah sounds exhilerating. It will be a 5 vs 5 of surface ships that can actually see each other, throw in some british smoke cruisers and it ends up less than that.

 

WG sure know how to promote fun gameplay...

[Karasu_Browarszky]

Ocean XL would be welcome....

[SodaBubbles]

Players have been asking for new maps for ages. 

But you have the changes to the daily missions nobody asked for, the idiotic commander skills and CV reworks, a pile of copy-paste premiums....

 

I've never been involved so long with a company that despises its customers as much as WG does.

That's pretty much how I see it. All the things that make the game suck, subs will make them worse. And we dont get any new maps because a billion dollar firm cant spare a few bucks to hire a developer to give us new maps.

You're saying this as a joke, but this would actually be hilarious. Make it narrow enough that they can't turn and it can be the meme YOLO tunnel :-P

New Maps = players have more fun = players play more this game = players spend more money into other stuff.

Actually can't remember, if I really like any of the new maps

Oh they could.

 

Imagine, WG setting up a mode where you pay (gold or in game resource), to play on a new map, with an in built  XP/credit multiplier, or pay to guarantee you play on a particular map that you like and is suited to the ship you like playing. 

 

It would be another new low, but right now I put nothing past the bean counters at WG.

[Lootboxer]

WG could do early access cash/gold/resources rip off scheme, when in a first month one could only pay to play and learn the map to gain a bit of an advantage over the others when finally map would be made free to all. 

 

WG I want 10% of income generated please. Thanks.

This is a genuine concern that I share having seen the introduction of the 'wheelie' class in WoT. I'm worried there's a direct parallel between them and the subs. For me, personally, WoT collapsed following that. I still play on an irregular basis, but not anywhere near as much as I used to play before when I played WoT more or less daily even though there the game had taken wrong turns even previous to that.

WG1 : The Force is strong with him

WG2 : If he could be turned, he would be a powerful ally

WG1 : Yesss, he would be a great asset. Can it be done?

WG2 : The job offer is in the post.

I think that will be best if WoW get random maps generator. this will resolve a boring feelings of playing same maps and bring more fun and truly unique battles. Some games have it like Diablo III.

This can be a new game mod something like advanced random battles so everyone can play mod what it prefer.

Was hoping that as gone quiet on subs that giving up on them

especially with the de emphasis on hydro on newer ships coming out.

[ThePurpleSmurf]

I'm curious. If WG would rotate half of the maps in the game by 90° clockwise but leave the ship spawn position the same as it is now - how many of this glorious playerbase would actually think they are playing on a totally new map? 

 

On a serious note. When did we get the last new high tier map? 2 years ago? The crash zone alpha i believe?
