    the latest livestream isn't on kabam's youtube or twitch channels. does anyone know when the new map is coming?

    Seem like they kept the old nodes but shuffle all the mini boss nodes from section 1 and 2 to dedicated island then boss island. So you would clear section 1 and 2, then mini boss island and then boss island.

    This defense tactic is new

    Only thing I don’t like is that they put both hazard shift minis on the same island. Whoever did path 9 would normally handle both, but now won’t be able to.

    Thanks for posting this. My Alliance thought something was bugged when all the defenders were removed. Would've been nice to announce it in game.

    This map is actually terrible, for the most part the same nodes but an abysmal layout

    yeah- like why are all the hazard shifts clumped together?

    Kabam. Sincerely im gonna need to run someones fade. This war change, has been the most disgustingly, eye soreingly, low down fourth rate dogwater groot level change i have ever seen in my 5 years of playing this game. This should have been released yesterday because it is truly tragic how sorry this map is. The person responsible must pay for this, and i, Dovah-Kin, volunteer myself to enter the death battle between the two of us. I will use the might and wisdom of the supreme lord Godnak to restore balance to the contest once more, and in doing so, restore balance to all the battlerealms.
    All jokes aside, this change sucks, please revert it thank you.

    Yeah I retired after years of leader/officer status a few seasons ago, I still help out but glad I’m not dealing with whatever this is. As one of my friends said it looks like a toddler put it together

    From my understanding, they don’t want anyone waiting for boss killers to clear the mini boss nodes so they move onto section 2. Kabam moved all of it to an island before boss island. This way, non boss killers can clear their path and be done with war.

    Yeah I'm in charge of path assignments in one of the BGs in my alliance and I'm already annoyed honestly, this looks like it's going to be a nightmare.

    Worst part is that those double hazard nodes are separated now, which means we need 3 people with debuff counters rather than relying on path 9 player to clear all of those. As a war planner it’s going to cause me a massive headache.

    I don't hate it. Slow moving members no longer get gatekept behind the minibosses between sections. They can clear all their fights up to the new boss peninsula (TM), and then the designated boss killers can get to work.

    Agreed Dovah, it looks so bad
  • Red_Lightning02Red_Lightning02 Member Posts: 128 ★
    It looks terrible and confusing.
    What was wrong with the previous one? Nobody complained about it so why the change?

    There was literally a thread today from someone wondering when they were going to change it

    In fairness, if this is the thread you're thinking about, it was more about when the new map would be live as opposed to complaining about the old map.

    And people started hating on it right away, which is weird because I'm pretty sure the response in the live stream was generally positive when it was shown.
