Take Moscow for example it has a gigantic map off which several iconic locations are maps of their own, monastery, fortified district, birch groove, vysokovo village, pokrovskoe city, manor and many others all take place and are situated in the same map, very diverse right ?, although monastery and vysokovo village are basically the same play area but in different directions
Now you all know how there’s quarry south and quarry north same map but the direction of the fight is reversed, ( last cap point is the first cap point and vice versa )
Now that’s a cool way to reutilize a map in a positive way but back at Stalingrad, the whole campaign is a variation of one map reversed either to the left, right, front or the back, this is why some are dissatisfied with the maps, it’s because there is only one map, no snow maps, no underground sewers, no variety, no nothing, this is why Moscow is superior.
Calm friends, Stalingrad has just been updated, the current battles are held around the railway station and the square, and Moscow has gone through countless updates throughout the year, the map has expanded greatly, and there are many more battles for Stalingrad Classic battles such as the Specialist Building (Pavlov Building), Mamayev Gorge, the Volga River, Residential Districts, etc. have not been updated yet.
Moscow maps are based on real location, they are just incredibly obscure and have almost zero recognizable landmarks. Outside of Birch Grove, which could literally be anywhere, it is possible to find where the maps are from. In fact, some people have done it and posted it on the official discord.
moscow only has two maps, one large and one small, but both are spilt into smaller areas to give us the areas that we play on
normany only has three but yet again spilt into smaller areas
tunisia is only one big map
stalingard is new so there is only the one map for them ATM
Yeah when they just showed the new maps for Moscow and Tunisia I was like: “please let there be new Berlin and Normandy maps as well” … nope.
Tbh the main thing I get bored with is the map variety, most noticeably in Normandy, whenever I play solo, or with a like minded team mate, I instant leave a game when it is D-Day or Airfield, Ruins of Vaux while I love it makes the third place in maps I have played way to often.
Instead of a new campaign I would love to have them put more work into the existing campaigns.
I really hope that the next big update does not have a new campaign as well. My dream update would be: two new maps for each campaign and also that they fix the fucking map rotation because more often than not you get the same maps two to three times (my “high score” was D-Day seven times in a row).
I would like to see some of the campaigns just expand, like Normandy to expand to Operation Market Garden and to Bastogne. Stalingrad feels like it could have just been an extension to Moscow. Campaigns should feel unique, like Tunisia or if they release the Pacific, even then Tunisia could be a part of an overall North African Campaign. This way you don’t pigeonhole yourself or spread the community too thin.
