The new Nuclear Escalation map is one of the worst maps I’ve ever had the displeasure of playing.
A small, mountainous map packed with SAMs and enemy bases in close proximity,everyone just firing Fox-3 missiles at each other. The original map was already difficult and had its own issues; shrinking its scale only made things worse.
Edit: This map only works well up to BR12.0; for any BR higher than that, the map becomes too small.
the SEAD event is a perfect example of how the map could be set up, the distances from the long range AA and the big buffer zone that allowed for planning and positioning seemed perfect
yes, I agree with you. We need bigger maps. Players should also be able to choose which map they want to play on, and we don’t always need 16 vs 16 players matches since the focus should be on ground targets anyway. Fighter planes that can’t engage ground targets should only protect allied aircraft.
I wanted the next map to be bigger. not the size of a postage stamp
shameless plug of my thread wanting the option to ban it
Just me or do the servers struggle even harder on the new NE map?
Does Gaijin want to add some WWII planes into this Map XD
The entire map just feels weird to me
If the map were limited to a maximum of BR 12.0, it would be a good map… anything above that is simply too small.
Still small under BR 12.0, even smaller than the regular map in ARB
I just played the new map and i quit after a while. you cant use the mountains to the north for cover because they are out of bounds… the game then respawned me right in front of a mountain making me crash.
pretty trash map overall
