At this late date it probably doesn't matter.
But PGI's tone deafness is why this has always been a niche game.
When they said classic Terra Therma I started polishing my ring.
After a couple of matches I put my ring back in the box.
Like I said tone deafness.

All the outlying areas are the same. The goat paths are exactly as I remember them. its the central bowl that has changed, but at least there are 5-6 good sniper spots on top of various volcanoes that you can use to snipe or launch at people silly enough to stand on the top. Posted Image

As I recall it, the character of the map wasn't all tied to the choke point gaming in the caldera, but that's just me.

I gotta agree with the OP, it's not exactly classic.
Really, it just deserves a new name.

New map is better. Old map caused too many one-sided matches due to "king of hill" design. Who takes caldera first => wins. As enemy team just couldn't concentrate enough firepower to get to caldera through way too narrow entrances.

I am fine with the revamped map, but the center structure feels "unfinished" a lot of possibilities to get stuck, and as far as I have seen it its peekaboo with big pillars.

I preferred the Classic "vanilla" Version.
