Hi

 

Prokhorovka is a map on the PC version which a lot of people seem to hate.  Basically you have a hill that dominates the battlefield and which really slows doen the game, and some waste of time sniping from bushes on the west side.  That's too bad because Prokhorovka should be synonymous with hectic combat, not Zzzz.

 

So what are your ideas for putting a Prokhorovka map in Blitz?

 

Mine are this:

No western edge of map.

Hill either reformed or left out so that it doesn't cause the rest of the map to bog down.

Open center and ditches are fine.  They could take the best features of the old Desert Sands.

Center of map should be full of wrecked soviet and German tanks so there is terrain to utilize.

Village is good avenue of approach for TD spotters.

 

Basically this should be the only map where both spawns can potentially shoot at each other.

Dead rails is essentially a dumbed down version of Prokhorovka if you think about it and it's easily one of the better maps in Blitz.

gtfo if all you're going to do is ride the other poster and not answer a simple question.

To clarify (for terrible posters who like to ruin threads by playing dumb and anyone who might br mislead by their stupidity)

 

I don't care if the map is similar to the computer version (which has threads and threads of complaints on the PC forum for those being deliberately obtuse and thinking they're edgy by praising an unpopular map)

I just want a Prokhorovka themed map.  The similarities are mostly in theme.  It can be somewhat similar in ways but better, like our Himmelsdorf.

Whoah, dude. This happens all the time. While you're writing a post, someone else posts almost the exact same thing. You can't see theirs until you post yours. Calm down, won't ya?

You may want to look inward.

I like the idea of dead tanks adds more realism to the map. Never played the PC version so not sure what the map looks like. Think we need some larger area maps. I actually like the new black goldville it seems larger though probably the same size. I'm glad it's not "caves" as the main destination point too.

Why can't you contribute to the thread ?  The guy is obviously a [edited]poster.  I asked an honest question.  The hell with these forums and your snark.

 

 

 

nevermind

Coz spawn camping is exactly what makes a great map

Some people like Prokhorovka but it is wildly unpopular and everyone knows it.  I think it captures all of the worst aspects of the PCgame.  Dead Rail is a good map, actually it's one of my favorites.  The point is to have a map with a theme which improves on it in every way.  After five years of map design failure we can fix it on Blitz like we did Malinovka.
