Map you like to revamp

New Atlas Park and the whole Praetoria are so beautiful. I must say thank you devs. I love them

I have strong feeling that perhaps they are making more things like that. So... what you think bright headed heroes and evil evildoers? Which map you hope the most to revamp and why? Of course "I don't want anything new" is also option for Memphis Bill

I'm thinking at Perez Park right now. I like the feeling and atmosphere of Perez Park but I think it is one of oldest looking map. So revamp could make a big difference to give more wild and feral feeling. Perhaps I'm little bit nostagic but I have warm memories about times when Perez Park was street hunt area number one. This is good opportunity to do something good for treetops also and very very mazelike park itself. Bubbling water, birds, steamy mist clouds, buzzing insects, creeping vines etc. could give very nice athmosphere. Of course Perez Park needs at least one good mission arch and option to select that instead of Hollows. Or maybe you could select that after David Wincott as option of Flux or Meg Mason.

Well Eden needs that same thing but many new players see Perez park first.

edit. Maybe its better just put zone names here than trying to make real voting system.

Ok. This are the zones what we think needs most of love. All of them I see

Perez Park
Boom Town
Steel Canyon
Dark Astoria
Talos Island
Indy Port

---

Well those votes are not too accurate because people like to revamp practically all zones just like me

The broken and destroyed buildings in the First Ward make BoomTown weep

Yes Boom Town was in my mind also. First Ward makes any other destroyed zones to look so old and Boom Town is very potential zone.

Boomtown, Steel Canyon, Dark Astoria

In that order? Yes they all needs some love. I'm taking your first option as a vote

Steel Canyon could do with a cosmetic buff for sure.

Piccadilly Circus? Times Square? I'm envisaging big LCD screens, a few 'clubs' and some high-class properties in one area with a more commercial/office feel in the centre.

Boomtown and Dark Astoria, naturally, could do with an upgrade. And I agree with Perez too. Especially now Galaxy is 'gone'. An arc or two would be nice. Not sure about what exactly. Maybe the gang wars between the Hellions and Skulls?

All of the old ones.

I don't see why we should be content to aim small.
Oh, and that's for zones.

For MAPS? Layer Cake room/Donut Cave room/OhGODnotTHISARRRRGH! room. You all know the one I mean.

My vote: Steel Canyon! I would love to see it become the bustling urban center it was meant to be.

Boomtown needs to include some of the newer encounters in it like the reconstruction project that villains sabotage around levels 15-20 as well as the rise of the 5th in Boomtown.

Perez needs more damage. I mean it's supposed to be in the hands of the gangs but there's barely any gang-related motifs or drappings anywhere. The buildings and statues still look pristine (6 years olf pristine but still).

Galaxy coulda done with an upgrade too. Those nice shiney buildings in 'Galaxy Destroyed'... nowhere to be found in the Echo of Galaxy, it's the same dated bits we've been looking at for 7 years.

I would love to see small areas of Boom Town, Faultline, Perez Park the Hollows being reclaimed, Dark Astoria needs to show some progress towards reclamation too. Perhaps in DA we could see an increased PPD presence fighting a mystical battle. Where are all the Jr NPC heroes? Seems to me they should be lending a hand with all this stuff!

Boomtown and Dark Astoria would be my choice for zones next up on the revamp table.

As for maps I'd have to say remove the layer cake cave entirely. Then destroy the code for it. Only time I'd advocate removing content.

Also, I wouldn't mind if the Council vampyre water chamber map was reworked a bit.

Boomtown When are they going to start reclaiming the area? Militia terrorist groups are training there unhindered. And how come of all the years the Council has been there nearly unopposed have no compounds been built?

Shadow Shard People have complained about the launchers and having portals would be easier than using launchers.

Independence Port Put in train stations on the ends of the map.

Talos Island After seeing sharks in First Ward. I realized that which could improve Talos Island are dolphins. Yes dolphins, with the blue clean pristine waters of Talos Island there should be dolphins, and beach dwellers (volleyball being played, Plastic discs being tossed between individuals, some lady getting her soul possessed, people lounging on towels, surfers, parasailers, windsurfing, nightly BBQs, and people with flipped wigs and helmet hair siting around a fire place while some tool plays a guitar)

People should be able to pound on protesters in Rogue Isles as they are able to in Praetoria.

While all the older zones need a brush up, I suspect that the next ones to be looked at will be Perez Park and King's Row.

Argh this stupid soft destroyed my long message

I was talking nice things about you and this game. Ah well I'm not going to do that one again.

So I'm just saying I like what you said Techbot and AzureSkyCiel.

Perhaps later today then

It was that "kick out system" in this forum. I clicked preview button and was instantly logged out and lost the whole post.

For clarification this thread is for zones. (I'm calling them as "maps" in my finnish head because there's no handy translation for the word "zone". Actually there is one but it's too long, clumsy and without real feeling. I think this game and forum are very good for my english. I'm learned many new words like omgz, rofl, sheild, gaurdian and rouge )

Very good ideas AzureSkyCiel

Talos is good suggestion for many reasons. For me Talos is like Atlas Park 2. Most of my blue side toons are hanging there in WW of Talos. First old blue side zone is Talos island when you came out of Praetoria so if you are new player its horrible contrast between new and old. It was that even for me when took my first praetorian to blue side

A few days ago I was superjumping throught Steel Canyon and was thinking like if they are revamping this zone they should remember superjupers. Personally I like to play "don't touch ground game" when travelling there and usually try to get up over the rooftops just for fun and using only superjump. So they should save enough ledges just for fun.

This is good opportunity to put some realistic details in game. There is very nice abandoned gas station in Neutropolis. So sure people in Paragon city want to buy some gas for their very old looking cars Gas stations are places with many encounters in movies. (Robocop soundtrack...)

I don't recognise ruined Galaxy city as Galaxy city at all. It's just some generic ruined area. Yes it's beautiful but it's not Galaxy...

And finally. I totally agree with you Techbot. The blue cave is my hatecave number one also

Hmm, now I'm curious if the MapPack will get an update for the new zones and badges. Anyone know?

Yes that's the word but it's not very good. Too umm... well... Not so many use that word normally. It's too clumsy. Works better in literature.

Some words and phrases works differently in different languages. When I'm speaking finnish about cox with my friends I'll use words like citymap, indoormap, outdoormap, cave etc. English and finnish are so totally different languages anyway. Almost nothing common between them but I'll try to be more accurate. (we don't even have same number of vowels. 8 in finnish) Reading is much easier and my english is based on mostly at old Rolemaster/Spacemaster rulebooks, Star Trek and Stargate TV series and chatting with you in game School is so far prehistoric thing that I can barely remember those times. Once some lost diplodocus smashed teacher. That was fun.

Well this all talk about linguistics needs good end

edit. There is about 25 words of different kind of snows in finnish but not word "please" at all and this is true

Huh. Ya learn something new every 47 minutes and 39 seconds...barring timey-wimey stuff.
