According to the post linked above, this map schematic in game resources is designated “95_Lost_City”. A direct quote of the person, who leaked it: “Absolutely symmetrical map” – it was apparently tested for 7/42 battles, everything was fine – and for 15vs15 as well.
I hope boring symmetrical maps will stay in craps like League of Legends.
They always try to make pretty symmetrical maps in WoT. So why not make a totally symmetrical?
Cause it’s boring. Asymetrical map means more interesting encounters.
I also think we should have several spawn point possibilities for each map.
Yeah, but, for WG, non-symetrical maps means more hard work into balancing the bases…which they don’t really want…and they failed almost everytime they tried.
League of Legends map is symmetrical?
Bitch get out of noobmode.
It is, the only differences are baron and dragon…
since they usually fail balancing maps symmetrical maps are better…
For a moment there I thought I was looking at a Total Annihilation (the game) map
PACMAN map!

Lol
stronk shoop
This is some kind of testmap?
Tournament map
Unreal.
Pick one 1/2/3?
Is it balanced? : Yes
Does it look good? : Hell fucking No!
I’m playing World of Tanks , not a Warcraft/Starcraft Map!
The other map at lease fell like a real city or historical battlefield , Then what kind of town layout is that?
I think it’s only a prototype(only terrain and obstacles, no textures)
This map reminds me of Stromguarde from War3… cannot be unseen:

Yeah, all we need is more mirrored kiddie maps…. Like Hidden Village wasnt totally shit enough.
Mirror map is bad idea. You only narrow down what you can do.
It’s better stay stay with mixing spawn points. For teams.
The base and start zone look like old Komarin
I logged in to say this map looks like crap, visually.
Not sure if bait.
Lol
Finally a tournament map, we needed at least one, statistic from such map would be very useful for balancing vehicles/whole nations
Snipers vs brawlers – what you balance here?
Woras, you really think brawlers always have upper hand over snipers in any kind of terrain ?
There’s still no info on the size of this map.
Map is totally unbalanced. North Spawn is completely overpowered. The map designer should be flogged to death before a statue of Lenin and his corpse fed to the goats.
Totally bait
How dare you sir!
ps. If goats are not available then a clowder of feral cats can be used in lieu. However great care must be taken that they do not climb upon the statue of the Greatest Leader and urinate on his face. Any cat that does so should be detained and executed by a 10-man firing squad as soon as possible. Indiscipline will not be tolerated.
Poor pussykatz….
But what about the birds?
Nevermind the *angry* ones?
Sadly this map does not look well balanced for arty/lights.
Well it is ONLY balanced for meds/heavies with an obvious advantage for heavies.
I haven’t heard TD’s complaining about Ruinberg and this map has more open space, why you think only meds and heavies will be good ?

Just a hunch.
Fine for CWs and TCs but for randoms i prefer less symmetrical but without OP advantages like on Murovanka A2 position.
Uhm.. is this map really coming or just a joke?
Looks good for the 7/42.
GJ WG! :)
It might be balanced but I dont think I like it…
Because it they don’t balance it you guys will whine and cry about how one side is “statistically” better. Take it out of rotation, call GG and drown your selves.
I think any new city maps are cool, in fact any new map, is a nice time to me.
So thank you.
Cant wait for Kharkov or Konigsberg. Just don’t let the WOWP guys touch it.
This map makes me think of a basic Unreal Tournament CTF map…fuck, that game really influenced my way of thinking.
Yuck,
Appy
This is really awesome, the game needs more balanced maps. The developers have proven time and time again that they are incapable of creating balanced asymetrical maps, well, this one is balanced so that great.
For a second I thought it’s gonna be map based on village in tv serie “Lost” and I was like omfg neeeerdz… And now I just don’t care, WG is talented enough to fuck up balance even on symetric map :)
Not to mention 1 new map per update so basicly 1 month is overwhelming for ppl who don’t spend massive amout of time in game. Most of the scrubs don’t even know well the ancient maps like Campinovka cuz they always stay in one same spot.
Finally! YES! A perfectly symmetrical map!
I’m sorry guys, but I’ve been wanting something like this for a LONG time! Remember, at least half of WoT gameplay is STRATEGY, not just shooting the other tanks.
And the most popular strategy games maps are also the most symmetrical, but that also have their own quirks and potential abuse-points… think Python on StarCraft.
Lost City…
I’m guessibg somewhat like Aztec or Thailand themed map…
“Lost Cities” are more of a Maya thing really. Helps that theirs were in actual jungle and got covered by vegetation mighty fast once abandoned.
Tanks that have bumped Camo stats gonna rule in here.
Looks like counter strike map
Such great, much want. give now.
Lost City? With a layout like that? Really?
That’s a Blizzard’s Lost Temple map for Warcraft/Starcraft. I mean, really, look at that: http://images.v-media.eu/vanioneu/ltwc3.jpg
WG should focus on creating new stuff or polishing older content, and not at “adapting” (basically stealing) other people’s ideas.
Yeah, totally looks like LT from SC/WC3…
I wonder when we get twisted meadows or echo isles :D
only I see that its look like Hitlersdwarf?
what.
To be honest i would actually like this map. At least there wont have to be balancing. If they fail at that they should be shot
HELL YEAH!
They actually remembered that some tanks are asymmetric and did rotational symmetry instead of mirror! AT 7 and M3 Lee will feel balanced on this map! WOOT!
A thousand more city maps please! :(
More bloody cities. Because the game is all about heavy tanks sidscraping.
Depressing.
