Broken Moon, feels good but doesn’t look good

This is more of a nitpick than a huge problem/issue with the map. Broken Moon feels alright to play in but in my opinion, the map lacks character. It isn’t as iconic as some of the maps of apex. The regular buildings looks way too similar as well. 
1. The ziprail “station” buildings all look the same.

2. That one white “space base” small buildings connected buy a tube.

3. The Donut buildings where the middle is open.

Again, the map “feels” okay to play in but not as aesthetically pleasing compared to maps like Olympus and even KC. On the other hand, you have an aesthetically pleasing map like storm point but doesn’t “feel” nice to play in.

  • @Cheese9Man I am actually getting tired of broken moon. It seems like every game becomes the same promenade fight. Roll up on a fight or 2 at promenade, start engaging, get shot in the back. But if you do not go there, you do not get any fighting. I like the other POIs and the zip rails but that POI is one that needs to go.
  • @hayhor Funny that fights in promenade happens differently than in Fragment in my games. In frag, everyone hotdrops at the start of the game but in promenade, everyone seems to be in that POI by mid game, also killing most of the lobby. I guess having a central POI is bad?

    Scared that we might get BM and SP at the same time next season. LOL.

    Broken Moon's only real selling point, aesthetically speaking, is the sky box. I think I referred to it at launch as "dramatically improbable" or something along those lines, and it still strikes me that way. Who has time to look up while they're being shot at anyway?

    I agree that every match will play out the same way... if you let it. Promenade and the three or four POIs around it are the Fragments of this map. I go through them to get somewhere else, or into them if the circle forces me there, but not for any other reason, and defintely not early-game. Now I just have to get my randoms to come around....

    @Cheese9Man What you mention is exactly what I see. People spread out more on BM on the drop but all end up at the same spot.

    @reconzero If I do not go to Promenade mid game there are no teams left by the time the circle forces people from it. Could I rotate around it and wait for the last 3 man super team to kill me when I am cold and havent fought? Yes I could. I do not see the point in that.
  • @Cheese9Man I hate this map for ranked because the moment you start a fight you'll have at least another 3 teams joining 10 seconds later, 3rd partying is a nightmare, KC is heaven compared to this.

    @Cro_Pittt Almost like having permanent and easy to access ziplines across the whole map was a bad idea... it's the opposite of Storm Point and it shows.
