Worst Map In the Game
« on: May 16, 2013, 11:34:44 PM »
Well, about 2 hours into this map and the Knights have no usable V bases, so our GV'ers are pretty much out of the game, and almost no place to up a plane safely.  These little maps suck.

Will try to find something to do on this map but will probably log off for the night.  Keep making more of these stupid little maps HTC and I'll cancel my subscription.

Just took a look and now the Rooks and Bish aren't even fighting each other - both crushing the Knights.  It will get even more fun when we're down to just 3 bases...great gaming experience.

I agree however, it is not a very fun map. Is there a way to make the E6B map better through personal creation outside of game? or would it need to be sent to HTC for approval and then added to game? I am not talking about the maps of towns and bases.. I am only referring to the main map or "world" map. I would willingly put in my own time to create better looking and more user friendly e6b world maps if other people saw a need as well.  :salute

You could always switch countries. Oh no wait, you probably have one of those silly chess piece loyalty hang ups.

I know you're kind of new, but threats won't get you far.

Also, those are the kinds of maps I like, up a 262 (or if you don't have the perks Tempest or 152) from a base back and go kill the horde :aok

I did this regularly when I played, got 20-30+ killstreaks on the mindless hordelings more times than I can count.

Chill out, have fun, learn ways around stuff you don't like (like trying to up a 190 or something from a totally capped base)... Up from a base or two back and get alt and kill the horde.

I would, but I don't speak foreign languages, just Knight  :P  Plus, I would be labeled a spy  :O

Good advice.

Hi RedBull,

Actually, I'm kind of old and started playing video games 40 years ago when Pong came out in the bowling alleys  :lol

And not a threat, just one vote from one paying customer.  If I had hit this map during my 2 week free trial I probably wouldn't have logged back on after my first night.

But to each his own.  I've heard Trinity was fantastic.  Maybe they could replace this map with Trinity?  Just worried there might be more maps like this one to come in the future which I think is in the wrong direction.
