Stop whining, start exploring and adapting!
It's pathetic, how fast you guys start whining about the new map, instead of accepting the fact, that changes can be a good thing. The dev's already confirmed, to bring back King's Canyon back at so...

It is whining, but mostly its the bad loot!
@hhnbbfggty66
Yeah man, that's just your opinion, you know?
For me it is whining, and that's my opinion.
To claim that everything is bad, not even 12 hours after the update, has nothing to do with objective criticism, especially after the dev's pointed out that it was their intention to change the meta.
I agree that the loot should be improved, but that's nothing, that could not be corrected easily.
- @JjumpingJjack Don't know if the loot is a problem, I felt like there's a lot of it all over and a lot of time to grab stuff. At some point, I was wondering why hasn't the enemy lazered my hoarding legend yet.
Probably you are right and it is not such an issue. We simply just do not know for now, where the open loot is located exactly because we do not have much experiece with the new landing zones. I am sure we will talk differently about it after 50 - 100 matches.
Well the loot feels quite scarce on the new map, as if it's the same amount of loot in all that bigger area. But the main problem is that we don't know the loot spots yet, so looting is excruciatingly slow and many lootpaths end in a dead end XD (exactly the same thing happened in february in King's canyon). First step - find the purple loot areas, second step - find the guaranteed purple spawn points. After figuring that out, the game will feel a lot faster and we'll probably have enough time to collect enough shield cells and meds (so far this seems to be the major issue in most of my games). Also, I wonder if there's a different way to get a vault key than just from the flying boxes... So far, I haven't gotten it even once (3 golden boxes destroyed) and I haven't even seen the vault opened at all.
- @DoYaSeeMe I can see his point though. It can occasionally be difficult to find specific items. You might need guns and have plenty of everything else. You might need heals or shields or something.. But how much of that is the map? Perhaps it's just us not knowing where to look and loot? The old map I knew where to head for certain things.
The map is fantastic, it's way more dynamic than the old map.
If you don't like sniping? you don't have to do it. Closed range is still viable. R99, Peacekeeper are still strong, together with the new king Eva with hop up.
This map is complex and provide plenty of cover spots. It's easy to run and close the gap if CQC is something you prefer.
Btw, for those who are reluctant to change, I suggest game this game for you guys: Tetris. There is no "meta", no sudden change of playstyle. Love the game.
