Korea (and other legacy map) was very common back then but, after the Steam review bombing, improved the map lists was implemented but, almost all legacy maps, except [Operation] Spain, have been changed to be available only for BR7.0 and below games.
Why did Gaijin make those available only for games under 7.0BR, even though in the early jet and Korean War jet games smaller maps had more variety in terms of tactics? Also, current map tables are far worse from a gameplay perspective than previous legacy maps, either at too high an altitude or too large for early jets.
Fix the map table to improve gameplay.

I miss Korea big time, not gonna lie. Nowadays, almost every map feels like high temperature flat lands since the map rotation is mostly Golan, Vietnam, Spain, and Sinai. Like what’s next? Desert Storm/Southern Watch?
Air spawn Mysterious Valley is god awful. Southeastern City was a step in the right direction, though, so credit to Gaijin

Also, they killed side attack tactics, just like “MiG Alley” on Korea maps after airfield position changed.
IMO, the recently added maps are good for Gen’3 and later jets.
Problem is early jets, including rocket aircraft gets as well and, It is much worse than it used to be such as Me 163 B-1 and Me 262 C-2b that has rocket boosters.

The last time I have seen this map in rotation is when i was spading amercan Super Sabre. (±2 years ago).
Really didn’t know it was restricted up to 7.3. This is really stupid decision.
By the way, we have damn Vietnam from 1.7+ and Megapolis from 3.7+. How is this possible???

Not long ago they put old Afghanistan on the Jet RB map table, but it is a high altitude map so NATO jets are at a disadvantage against MiGs.
