Well, you can say that WG screws the maps anyway, regardless of time taken for testing, but still the test, regardless the results or how they utilize them, takes some time.

I doubt wg even tests the maps at all. Maybe a handful of rounds with their own alpha testers and if the map doesn’t bug out and fail completely it is put into the game and forgotten. Wg only cares about utter shit maps when players keep pointing out the flaws and shittyness of the map for months and months. Some of the maps are still hilariously unbalanced when you look at win ratios for the bases and wg just doesn’t give a shit.

That being said, they will be fun to play if based on historical battle locations.

Also, Sacred valley has spawns on opposite sides of map, so it’s logical that some people go the shortest way. This is not the case here.

And I agree the map is far from finished, I’m sure a WoT dev can knock up a map which looks pretty in the same number of actual work hours but he isn’t doing it in his parents basement and leaving half eaten pizza on the floor.

As it is it has many hours of balancing to go and I don’t think those spawn points will ever work, they render three quarters of the map irrelevant.

It’s a problem i always get when mapping, and if you are not certain about what you wanna do, you often have to think hard to figure out what to put everywhere.
