Commanders!

We want to start the work on our next Community Map. So as our starting point, we want to hear some ideas from you!

And here's some to get you started:
Urban, Desert? Winter, Jungle? Any images of inspiration?

What Continent and Country location around the world would you like to see?

European map
America
Arctic or Tundra
Africa
Asia

What sort of prominent landmark or map feature would you like to see?

Military bases or infrastructures
Military factory or Tank assembly
More city urban maps
Rural country
Elevation heavy
Caves
Tunnels
Bridges
Dams
Rivers
Waterfalls

What sort of gameplay elements

Areas of corridor focused
Mostly open with plenty of flanks
Long range sniping opportunity
Close range brawler zones

Caves/Tunnels are nice. Please do a mixed map like Highway with both Urban/CQC and Field environments.

Anything with nighttime

I don't really know what else I would want but first thing that came to mind was a map that would be very forest heavy, nighttime, low light, and a deep starry sky

I'd like to see another jungle map maybe with an Aztec/Mayan temple theme

My wish is something like:

  • European map
  • Summer setting
  • A big river
  • 3-4 Bridges
  • Maybe half of the map is a city with bridges split by the river (the whole map should be splitted by the river as a natural obstacle)
  • Many forests and bushes outside of the city
  • Year 1944
  • Name: Rhine (in german: Rhein), or Rhine crossing
  • Playstyle: CQB and brawling in the city. Long range and hidden outside of the city.

As the first comment said, a highway like map where there’s field and a town/city would be nice. I’d Prefer closer to 50/50.
maybe separated by a river or something.

How about a villers bocage 1944 map

@last fossil Why not have a map design contest. No promises it's used but can be fun and generate ideas for everyone. Give the winner something nice.

I would like to see a map focused around the Fulda Gap as that was a predicted flash point in the Cold War.

I have no general landscape in mind, but a little research in the general location would probably give the team some ideas. It could be a summer theme with various military themed locations scattered around. and semi forested with some gentle changes in terrain. Maybe a small town in the middle with a mix of permanent and destructible buildings to break LOS from spawns?

And since this map location/theme would fit well with tiers 8+ and CW, size wise you could make a CW appropriate size and then a WW2 mode appropriate size. (or make one size but have it open enough where both modes can work on it.)

Arctic
Night
Snowing
One side of map with steep mountains and tunnels, other side of map, open, but with decent soft cover (bushes)

Really, anything but a city/summer map. The game is already has those in spades.

  • A small/medium map to focus more on tactics than speed
  • Summer, foliage for spotting potential
  • Lots of dips and depressions
  • Sort of a re-imagined Prokhorovka

Everything except a sniper map its time to focus on heavy , medium and light tanks and stop the focus on Td’s for a while.

So i would recommend a map in the autum, one with multiple playstyles that has a city part and a part will Hills and caves. 1000x1000 size so WW2 can play it and perhaps another japanese or chinese setting as those styles are very visually appealling! Let is have a brawling city area and an open area with hills so both heavy tanks and light , medium tanks can have a good time.

So no plans to bring back "old maps"? Its cheaper to start from scratch?

Instead of creating new maps, it would be faster to return the old maps:

Windstorm
Caen
Caen 1944
Ravaged Capital
South Coast
Tundra
Sacred Valley
North West

gilded heart
#

Of those they have said South Coast is never coming back.
Caen 1944 is now Sword Beach.
Northwest is the only decent one and the rest are pretty disliked in general. They are trying to fix Ardennes but the bones have issues. Kind of better to spin the wheel on a new map concept.

  • City map with rubble piles for brawling and close combat
  • European winter map
  • Windstorm was a really nice map. It had place for all classes. Something like it. City map with smaller more open part for less armored tanks on the outer parts on such style would be really cool.

I believe we already have enough open maps in game. An addition of a city map for tanks such as Maus could help popularity of such vehicles which is only good imo as it helps longevity of the matches.

#

But I do have to agree and point out that bringing old maps such as Windstorm, Thundra, Sacred Valley would be much more appreciated by the community as we are already familiar with them and they would obviously take less development time than a completely full new map.

  • Heavy winter map in Montana or somewhere in Siberia.
  • Military facilities, main feature is missile silos around the area.
  • a bit more open of a map but blocked by heavy snow build up. CW is limited due to heavier snow flurries at times. (if possible have the snow fall wane or increase at times through the match. )
    • Natually have a event where a missile pops out and says hello. if we can have an airship crash we can have a missile or few fly out.

The pacific northwest would be interesting with giant red wood trees. It would definitely have that battle of Endor feel but with tanks.

CW is the issue for any new or old map. True Vision is one of CW's greatest strengths and weaknesses. Any map will "fit/work" in WWII mode because of the vision/camo system. But a map now has to work in both systems.

How about porting a couple pc maps? Didn't the engine update make it easier to port maps from pc?
Studzianki and Glacier both come to mind and should be OK with cold war vision.

True, bet they didn't like doing it 😎

Can we drop some names for specific locations on the map to create some kind of easter eggs?

Come up with whatever maps you want, just so Wargaming starts adding more maps. Not just one map every 3-4 months.

a map every 3-4 months is pretty fast pace

Very nice, now more old maps.

It would be cool to see a Brazilian map

#

Something like Amazon Rainforest (with open areas of course, being like a Thiepval Ridge 2.0), or then a urban map inspired by historic cities like Ouro Preto (MG)

Is one polish map is Studzianki,
The Polish community wants this map back in the game.

This map was available before, but disappeared. It's also on PC.

gilded heart
#

That map was never in the console version before but wouldn't mind it coming as some of the older console maps should not come back

compact comet
#

The Studzianki map was never available in the console version.
Perhaps it's time for it to appear with the addition of the new Polish TDK line.
The priority is the return of old maps. Regarding new maps, WG should focus on Cold War. This mode lacks large maps. While creating a large map for CW, they could also create a smaller version for WW2 from a single map, and everyone would be happy.

I want more of our old maps back before they start creating new maps.

#

There's like 4 missing and they are crap in every mode and tier. Some are stated as never coming back.

I feel the need to point out maps that work in both modes require a giant hill in the middle and lots of cover, so very limited. Would rather WW2 didn't just turn into that

# odd cove Northwest, Sacred Valley, Paris, Icebound, South Coast, Windstorm, Pacific Islan...

Most of those like the merc maps, South Coast and Pacific Island are said to never be coming back because they have replaced versions. Others are not unique maps Redshire, Caen and other variants already in game. We don't need to have where Redshire, then Redshire 1944, then Redshire night come up consecutively.

So you have NW, Ravaged Capital (not Paris), Sacred Valley, Icebound, and Windstorm. "like 4" is an approximation. I had forgotten about NW and that one would be worth bringing back. The others are crap, dull, unbalanced messes where players often kill themselves or wanted to (Icebound).

Make the new map 1000x1000. That seems the best size. Not too big nor too small.

Instead of creating new maps, it would be faster to return the old maps:

Windstorm
south coast
Destroyed Paris
Stalingrad
Windstorm
Mittengard
South Coast
Sacred Valley
North West

also you could add back weather variant maps
And plz cap Port on higher tiers!

#

instead of more maps maybe less bad maps ? delete 10 Bad ones and it would be better

tacit dirge
#

I was just thinking it would be better to FIX some of the bad ones. Fix the ones that aren't playing properly.

gilded heart
#

Stalingrad as well.

compact comet
#

Of all the old maps, these four would probably make sense.

• Sacred Valley
• Windstorm
• Noth West
• Ravaged Capital

The Caen map has been reinstated as Sword Beach, and if Wg even reads these messages posted by the WoT community, I have a request. Please make the Sword Beach map a daytime version, as this map is difficult to see.
