I played two of my lowbies for a few hours the last couple of nights and for the life of me I could not get a warehouse mission. I took one from 4 to 10.5 and didn't get a single warehouse mish, and another from 0 to 9 and had the same experience. All I wanted was to see if the old warehouses were still there for lower level toons.

Despite the new tilesets, abandoned warehouses still look quite abandoned. They have all the grime, cobwebs and ruined shelving that the originals had. The only difference is they look better as far as graphics and have those nice windows.

I was doing warehouse missions on my level ~10 Warshade, and they were definitely the new layouts and textures.
Some of the new texture schemes have lighting and coloring very similar to the old textures. I wonder if those saying they still get the original warehouse textures are mistaking the new for the old.

They remind me of the walls at the warehouse/factory where I work. Our walls are painted an ugly grey and white (they used to be an ugly blue and white), but I could easily see that green being used on them.

Actually, the fact that the blocks are green makes them look like public washrooms you would see in a state-built public rest stop. As textures in an isolated sense, they're nice. Visually, I don't find them appropriate for purpose. |

I have a maybe stupid question. Are there new setups for the labs in Praetoria? Specifically corridors that angle down and new ceiling equipment. Also things like equipment in alcoves as well. I ask this because they may be the usual things in missions that I've not had up until now. Anyone else?

I first saw those during the new Roy Cooling arc, but I don't know if they're new maps or just ones I hadn't seen before.

I for one welcome our new warehouse overlords.
