    After seeing the world map that you're aiming for, I realized you have quite a few maps to make or yet to be revealed. Can you tell us how many maps will be at launch?

    Another day one said it will be 122 unique maps at launch. Nowdays Nathan claims "no no no, there will be much less maps and even maps with the different mutators counts as a "unique" map, as I understood. So how many visually unique outposts we will see is a great mystery for now. Oh well...

  3. Well, considering we have 4 maps now.... uhh... like 8 maybe?
    8 big-ish maps?

    From the SotC:

    "To address this issue in the meantime, we divide the continent into ~120 locations or “points of interest”. Each point of interest is unique, built directly on the continent and taking into account the terrain underneath. This result in many instances: potential PvP matches hosting dozens (between 10-100) of players each but active only when a battle is in progress. That way, each server still delivers a persistent war across real territory shared by all players of a same region."

    This is not true anymore....I asked in the stream a couple of weeks ago if 120 unique locations were still planned and they said something along the lines of "no, maybe 120 different variations of the same maps" (different weather/day and night etc)

    btw i can't imagine having orcs and eldars at lunch, that they would not make at least a few maps that will look orkish and space-elvish...

    at least a few...

    please...

    The world is Imperial so all of the constructions etc will be of that theme. I think they plan to have stuff added to each map for the people who own it (the defenders). So for Chaos there would be skulls etc everywhere, for SM there would be Imperial banners etc
  9. Yeah i know, that was my point, I am talking rather about orkish flavor for example, rather than about orkish buildings of sort. You calmed me down
