I was hard on the last map, and I didn't get a lot of pushback on that.

So I'm gonna come out early and say, from the 7 screenshots I've seen, new Viridian is looking pretty good, terrain-wise. Lots of hills to hump, lots of JJ opportunity, multi-level platforms to fight on. I'm excited to try this one out.

We shall see. So far, based on the number of times I see each of the des... I mean modified map get voted for, their chance of success is 25%. I only see Canyon more then few times a week.

I saw HPG 4 times in the past 7 days, and maybe once in the week before that. Before the change it was one of the most voted maps.

Polar, I think 3 times in total, which is less then before the change.

Caustic once. I saw it less then ten times since it was changed, and most of it in the first 24 hours after the patch.

I have nagging feeling that I played on Terra Therma more times this week then on those 3 maps combined.


Perhaps when they modify all the maps, when there is nothing else to vote for, we shall see more of them being played. Thus, I am not exactly holding my breath for the changed maps.

I would say folks would mostly prefer new maps in addition to the old ones.

I see new Canyon, Polar, and HPG all the time. All very popular now, will generally only reliably lose to Mining

New Caustic I don’t see at all. I think it most certainly needs work

Just wait a few days to see what the gameplay on the new map actually is.

I'm just glad to have different experience then you. Apart from Canyon that is the best of the lot. :)
