I honestly don’t understand why they removed it. It’s the same rubbish map as almost all the others in the game. For the same reasons this one was removed, they could remove 80% of the maps.
Oh no!
They added red out of bounds areas in the middle of some maps , slippery slope to prevent going out of bounds is pointless at this point. Indestructible dragons teeth or Czech hedgehogs, or even better mine fields could be added to the same result. Then driving up a hill in unrestricted areas wouldn’t be affected.
While we’re at it can we bring back Beethoven’s 7th symphony 2nd movement as the hangar music.
They couldn’t get rid of that map fast enough. The only viable position was taking the far outside and sniping inward. With now more modern vehicles it woudl be far, far worse.
They brought wolokolamsk back and removed white rock fortress…
We really live in the weird parallel universe huh.
I really dont understand the nostalgia love for the white r(c)ock fortres.
The map dynamics were absolutely terrible.
WW2 and early cold war vehicles didnt have the mobility to counteract the absolutely atrocious terrain.
Late cold war and modern vehicles were too fast so the map handled like MMA octagon match. SPAAs in particular were borderline unplayable because there was no position they could reach and focus on AA duty. You stay in cap and get shot from the walls, move inwards and you get express ticket to garage and on top of that have zero angles to supress enemy air beside high alt bombers, move outwards and get either warning that you are leaving the game area or get shot from enemy spawn because there was little to no cover breaking the line of sight.
Not to mention situations with vehicles like TOW wiesel that could lock down entire lanes with no counterplay from ground vehicles.
seeing how ass some of the other maps they might as well bring it back.
Winter Ardennes and it’s spawn to spawn shooting is way worse, and that’s even an “improved” version.
Bring back White Rock Fortress !!!
They didn’t have to remove it entirely. It would’ve been a fun map to use in customs.
the amount of cover would be great against helis and planes in top tier nowadays

Theres still what looks like deep mud

Hopefully there isn’t as much mud
Is this an image of the reworked new version?
Hopefully it stays so small rat tanks get stuck in there for the whole match. Best map ever
Players:
“We hate this map for (x).”
Gajin:
Removes map for half a decade, reworks it, does literally nothing about (x) “buffed”
Wait is this reworked White Rock Fortress? If it is, it has a hill!!! It has not been turned to 50m engagement CQC!!!
I think that’s just where one of the spawn points was/is.
However expanded map you saw in sim was decent for sniping because of how large it was.
Get ready for this low BR map to be exclusively 10.0+
And to be unplayable and as miserable as it was before they removed it.
