It's the map that advertised MWO at expos but for some reason devs decided it shouldn't be in the game.

So um, can we have it now?

[miscreant]

Lol. No. Pgi, the no men.

[DeadlyNerd]

Well I know it's a regular colony, only with sunny weather, but that sunny weather was awesome for displaying particle effect from weapons.
Why on earth take that experience away from the playing(and paying) crowd that supports the game. Kind of feels like a scumbag move. Wait... I got a meme for that too.

Needs more fog (according to PGI)

[PureRiffs]

lol more fog? :-O

Bring back the sun so i can actually see colour again!!

I guess they are going for a dark attitude but 1 pretty map would not hurt?

I'm hoping desert won't come with a muddy sky, I want clear blue skies on other maps than the ones with snow!

[Relic1701]

It used to be quite bright back in early closed beta, but then they started adding environmental effects, and everything all became a bit overcast

There are some drops on Frozen City that are clear, and certainly some matches on Forest Colony are clearer than most on Frozen City...

yeah, I do feel the colors on ALL the maps are too muted overall, giving a dulled feel.

More fog, smoke and desaturation. Up next: Bloom.

[verybad]

I'd like for them to have some maps with morning or evening light. Not middle of the night, and not middle of the day. Some angled light.

Dynamic weather andtime would be great, but dunno if htey'll implement that.

[Grraarrgghh]

It's a shame that modern video card drivers don't have a digital vibrancy slider.

[Le Goat]

Originally it was supposed to be dynamic weather effects that they were testing on forest colony, ie. like watching the storm /fog roll in. but i guess that was too much for them and they just settled on fog/overcast/pea soup.

i personally would like more day/clear maps like the original colony map.

[DocBach]

I miss the clear weathered Forest Colony we had in closed beta.

[MoonUnitBeta]

PLEASE BRING IT BACK.

IT WAS GORGEOUS.

[CDLord HHGD]

I'll take an alt of EVERY map that represents a battleground wasteland. Like we've fought over it a hundred times (because we have and more) with Mech hulks rusting in the dozens.....

[Targetloc]

PGI, pls.


I spent a lot of money on my paint jobs.

[MadPanda]

I dislike maps that force you to use heat vision to see ****. Forest colony, frozen city and night river are top3 worst maps in the game.

[Magik0012]

I would like to see it again.

[DeadlyNerd]

I should've made this a poll...

I'm curious now. With all this positive attitude towards the map and basically a desire to have it, from the community, why are they still so stubborn on keeping it out of the game?
Can't be dynamic weather effect, or weather effects at all cause all they've done with FC was put in clouds and fog... some weather. Flat out rain would've had a better atmosphere effect.(ooh ooh, steam from rain drops falling on hot mechs, that's a shitton of particle effect but worth every fps drop)
