As with Lighthouse, my main goal of each wipe nowadays is to grind the new maps and find out all the good shit, and then run it online and get rich off of it. I don't bother with questing anymore until I'm forced to because of reputation, I just run the new maps for loot and fun/pvp, and Chad-Factory to level, then when I'm forced to because of reputation, I'll do some quests.
I'll list a few problems I have with the map and go into detail about it. I'm incredibly disappointed with the state of the map, I will say that out the gate.
Problem Number 1: LOOTdisclaimer: I do not have any keys, this is a complaint not regarding keys and the loot behind those keys, but instead the base map and what is loot-able in that map.
All the "good" loot, rares, electrical, military electrical etc, is really just on the
The bottom right side of the map is absolutely loaded, the abandoned factory on the left side is also loaded with hideout items, and technical spawns, but no rares as far as I could tell or find inside the Abandoned Factory.
There is a TON of jackets, filing cabinets, and loose technical spawns throughout the map, however I don't really consider that to be "good" loot, that's pretty standard for every map at this point
However, the left side where the hotels are, as far as I could tell, is completely BAREN.
Don't bother going to the
The loot is pretty bad overall, considering how long it takes to get out of the map from where you spawn. except for if you spawn right side of the map, in that case, you're chillin.
Problem Number 2: DOORS
disclaimer: I know this is part 1 of part 2 streets, I understand that they're going to extend it. point is that its poorly done even when considering that its going to be extended.
There are hundreds of doors in this map that look like they should be interactable, or at the very least, have a "breach" indication, but nope. They literally have nothing, they are just 2d models on the wall.
It is so bad that you'll enter a building, go up a set of stairs, go to the top of the stairs, see these doors that should be interactable, and they're not even "breachable." again, they're unfinished and useless doors, and you're now stuck in a dead-end because of it.
You can go in the restaurant no problem, after which you're
(
Now, what do you think is down this
Another big example of something that should be accessible is the Movie Theater. Why is it even on the map if you cannot, in any way, access it? Just close it off with fences or something
And it doesn't stop at fucking DOORS, there's even
Problem Number 3: EXTRACTIONS/SPAWNS (LEFT SIDE IS FUCKED)
So what if I told you that if you spawn
But if you spawn
If you spawn underneath the movie theater, you have ONLY ONE extract to take that's always up, and that's
OH BUT GUESS WHAT, THE CAR DOESN'T HAVE A 100% SPAWN, so you could just be fucked and have to go to Scav Checkpoint.there's an obvious advantage when it comes to spawns
SO TLDR
The loot sucks on the left side of the mapWhen you spawn left side of the map, you're fucked and have to travel across the map or take carCar isn't always up even when you spawn next to itWhen you spawn right side of the map you have an extract on the same side, and all the good lootDoors that lead no where, or Doors that aren't even doorsLocations that look loot-able but aren't
edit: By the way, this is just my subjective opinion, I am in no way claiming that the map is designed poorly as a whole, there's just things that I wish weren't released how they are
Let me know how you guys feel and maybe if you have a differencing opinion, let me know!
