why do you need inspiration ?

Apparently the Battletech universe is similar to the Star Trek universe; all alien worlds look like earth, but with only one biome. Only here instead of different shots of California, we get different shots of Canada

I understand it'll be huge, but from this screenshot of Pretty Ugly Baby, it appears the map will be another forest colony or frozen city.

What do you think? of course I could be wrong, and I hope I am, but from the 'stuff' behind the mech it appears to be fairly bland. Obviously another 'Earth' map.

Let the flaming begin!

Look at the bright side atleast its not another River city type map.

Alpine Peaks - how could you not expect snow, and um, mountains?

[Coolant]

I bet it's like the Alpine map in Mercs...lots of hills, big, plenty of spots to snipe, yes lots of snow. Alpine in Mercs had many combat points where battles would occur rather than just the middle. You can see almost across the current maps, but there prolly will be too many hills to see very far. Lots of steath options and using cover...

The map will be awesome.

or

The map will be bad.

or

The map will be mediocre.


Of that I'm certain!

Since the picture has Pretty Baby in it, the map will be Awesome. No, really. :-)

Honestly .... you will be able to play the map in about an hour. LetÄs delay the discussion until then.


Besides, I'd love a Jungle map with crazy vegetation.
But unless we get destructible environment I am generally unhappy with the maps.

Phys-X !!!

Not at all true... most of us are smart enough not to go to the ones that are not Earth-like. Breathing ammonia doesn't appeal to most people so they only go there when they need something from there. Fighting in such areas in Mechs is very dangerous. Your mech is now your environmental suit and even if you eject before the mech is trashed you now have to survive in a hostile environment until picked up.

LOL, in an hour?...haha

[Warrior UK]

You lot are really SAD! about moaning, get a grip, get a life just get something, it's a new map!. So what it has snow what did you think to find, a Mc D's drive through. Ladbrooks are laying odds on you moaners being online to check it out, but then i have had another thought, perhaps you get moaned at so much at home that you have to take it out on the devs and what they give us, as for myself i am looking forward to it and with the desert one soon to come in March all i can say is bring it on, keep it coming...

Now have your moan about my post ya bunch of loser's

NUFF SAID!

[Xyroc]

LOL love how you take a few meter section and talk trash about something you actually havent seen ...
and I bet a lot of people saying " should have been desert first" are going to be the ones QQing about the LRMs and PPCs hitting you from across the map that will have very limited cover =D

It's a new map...take it and be happy.

[Corvus Antaka]

I don't think so

[Bryan Kerensky]

I have so much information to go on that I can ridicule a yet unreleased map!

Gasp! Am I a prophet?

Such a necessary thread. I congratulate you. Have you ran out of things to discuss?

SUBZERO8K, on 12 February 2013 - 10:57 AM, said:

Can we at least play it before judging it off of one screenshot that represents a miniscule fraction of the map?

InsaneWolf, on 12 February 2013 - 11:03 AM, said:

whats the point in judging a map by a screenshot?

OP, read these again. If you don't like the game, move on to the next one. Or perhaps, just perhaps, wait until the new map is actually released and comment it then?
