STOP SAYING THIS!
even they themselves say it in their own dev blog that they have taken another map and remade it.
Jesus Christ.
not only river but also:
*bridge locations,
*general town layout with some streets moved,
*several houses are in the EXACT same position,
*the big picture layout (where there is flat areas and where there are forests and where there are *town/roads.

Bridge locations don’t matter when you can cross anywhere.
Town layout is entirely different.
Topography is entirely different.
I played the map, so I know this already.
Of course you’ll likely prove that the map is different.
do you really want me to spend an hour in photoshop combining the maps and marking all the places where they are EXACTLY the same?
du you even know what the word “entirely” means?
because if i just point out ONE house that is the same then you are no longer correct.

the fact you would waste an hour just to prove your right in an internet argument is insane. just ignore it you’ve already made your point
Here you go:
This is what i found within 5 minutes. There is A LOT more (and i do mean A LOT) but i cant be bothered because this should be enough to make you admit you are wrong.
Green=roads
Yellow=buildings
Red=Bridge
River is self-explanatory
made the bottom bridge orange because the new map angles it the other way.

exactly why I said it wasn’t worth it, although I’ve played on the map and the extra buildings do make it play a little differently with the extra cover
No he’s not. Have you actually played the map?
If you had, you would not think it was based on the old one unless you knew it was supposed to be.
Which is a shame. I would have liked a more closely updated version of ye olde map.

oh i have never stated that it wouldn’t PLAY completely differently (or feel different for that matter).
i can totally see that it feels VERY different to play just by the changes made.
but that does not change the fact that it basically is a copy paste map with tweaks, some changes and additional new areas of town and buildings.
like objectively it has a vast majority in common with the old map.
BUT subjectively it will very likely play and feel very different.

maps like this are good anyway, open areas on the sides for tanks that play better at range and an urban area for tanks that play better up close
oh yes, i like it :) it will be fun to play once it hits the live server :)
i’m just refuting the fact that AlvisWisla (aka; RazerVon) claims that the maps are “entirely different”.
Addition:
This map is fit for RB and not really fit for AB with his concept.
3/4 of the maps are urban or focused CQC so is extremly biased for one way.

What also really bothers me with this map is the lack of destruction of the city, there are few destroyed buildings scrambled here and there including the mall but there are no signs of an actual conflict going on. The surroundings should be devastated by artillery and large bomb craters, burned out tanks and other armor scattered about like in Berlin, one half of the city could be destroyed while the other remains fairly intact. Sell us the idea that there is an actual war going on.
BF42 maps at launch suffered a lot of that as well, they were all too pristine and didn’t portray the almost post apocalyptic setting the game is set in but they at least acknowledged it and remade a few maps to be more gritty and grounded.

Thanks for the new extra 9 minutes of crewlock !!! the half of my team just leave after 1 death because is Retarded put B cap inside the mall like a stupid CoD. I try it but is another pathetic bad designed map.
At the least bring back the old maps…

Inside the mall, meaning its safe from CAS?
Nope, you can bomb mall because the roof is mostly open.

Why 50% of this map is red / inaccessible?
Also, I couldn’t get new crew member on cap point. Icon was fine, but button pressing did nothing.

There are some game modes that focus on the “river”, and a single cap that is in the town to the East. So big map constrained like they have been doing to the older maps.

I’m glad you agree with me that we need to have discussions about this map.
Can’t let people derail us.
