Opinions on the new Map?

For anyone who watched the stream, what did you think of the new Map?

I thought the Temple and surrounding rocks looked great but having it in Red Forrest makes it look out of place for me. I wish it would've had it's own outside area that matched the aesthetic.

    It looked really good! I was amazed by it, and while Red Forest was a bit confusing to me too, I think the rainy atmosphere fit the Plague-like theme it’s set around. The devs did a really good job on this one! 😄

    Wait it's not a indoor map that sucks

    It looks really good but I wish the temple was just a little bit bigger. Nevertheless having a temple map will be great.

    It's a half and half with me, i like it because it's new, but i don't like it for being on red forest, i was hoping for a sandy orangeish looking map.

    im pretty sure i noticed another "basement inside a basement" structure which will be pretty big for killers

    I would have rather it was it's own unique map, to be honest. There was a huge amount of potential with a temple / the killer's lore. Using the Red Forest as a base just seems a bit lazy - IMO.

    I already like it more than Ormond and even Yamaoka as far as gameplay design goes. Yeah sucks that it's on the Red Forest, but seems they want to play it a lil safer than risk issues like Ormond had

    I liked it, but as much as I love the Red Forest, it needs to be its own thing.

    I'll have to see it live before knowing for sure. I don't mind them reusing realms, because having so many realms with only one map gets really annoying. Ideally I wish they'd provide free map updates more often, but this is the next best thing.

    But I'm not sure how this particular combo makes any sense.

    Yeah dislike that it’s on red wood. It’s own original map with orangish brown setting like the other guy said, or it being an indoor temple would of been dope. I wouldn’t mind waiting to give them time to make it tbh. I know they’re strict on time.

    Red Wood theme is kind of out of place tbh.

    I think that a Swamp theme for the temple would be a lot better if we are gonna use the existent realms. I wish it had its own realm but I liked the new map anyway.

    It looks cool that generator next to the basement just screams for Bubba to wreck some survivors. I'm not a fan of reusing the red forest it feels cheap just like when the the chapel came out.

    I think the Temple looks really cool, but I hate that its on Red Forest. It just looks so weird.

    Just slap on a filter to make it look sunny and swap the red forest tree models for one like those and it's good to go :)

    At least I'll be able to hit people with hatchets. Unlike Ormond wall clusterfucks

    The map looks cool, the temple etc but yes i am disappointed it's in the red forest too, i wish it had been a totally and fully new map altogether.

    Just checked all the replies, wow Thought i was alone in thinking it looked disjointed but guess not haha but seriously though, they could've just used some plants and stuff from previous maps and retextured them to make it fit and not look strange, that wouldn't have taken long at all.

    The temple looks quite nice, but out-of-place in the middle of the forest.

  • Mister_xD
    Mister_xD Member Posts: 7,669

    i personally espected it to be area with less trees, maybe a mountain or a desert, but i think it does fit pretty well...

    just a little unexpected, but not bad.

    the temple itself looks great and i cant wait to play on it.

    It could have been perfect but instead it's just pretty good in terms of map.

    This dlc is likely my favourite yet and it's not even out yet so there's more to grasp.

    Just instead of grass they could have replaced it with sand then it would be perfect along with a slightly bigger underground/inside area.

    The temple looks great but the Red forest is just poor Recycling. Hope they will change this til Release.

    The killer is from Babylon.

    Babylon was a desert kingdom in Mesopotamia in the middle East (the Saudi-Iraqi border area).

    New map is Babylonian temple.

    Ancient Babylonian temple is in:

    Pre-disaster Chernobyl Russia.

    They should at least add some different effects in forest. Like different lighting and weather.

    I like it, it's the red forest realm but different enough to make you feel you are in another place. In the "Onion Temple" there will be epic chases.

    I like the temple structures but its lazy as hell to put it on Red Forest.

    I was hoping for a huge in-door temple map but it still looks better than the re-used asylum for the Clown chapter.

  • captainlongshlong

    Honestly. It looks like they ran out of time so just decided to copy what they had done and stick it in the middle of Red Forest.

    When the teaser came out I had envisaged a catacomb style map, which would have been awesome. Underground, tight spaces, tunnels etc. Sadly it’s just more of the same of what we already had.

    It’s a shame because the temple looks really well designed and thought out. The idea of the killer is refreshing and the backstory (described on the livestream) sounded really promising. It deserved more than a half-baked attempt of a map copied into a pre-existing one.

    The temple looks amazing. It's just too bad the outside portion of the map doesn't look like your typical Iraqi landscape.

    The temple is really awesome. The setting is confusing though. Wish they'd have given it it's own setting.

    Everything that doesnt have a corn field in it is a top tier map for me

    Wish the realm was a bit more tropical. Like keep the gloomy, rainy blue of the red forest but make it like amazon rainforest at night

    Honestly my opinion is pretty much the same as most people's the temple looks amazing.

    I just hate the fact that it's on the red Forest I don't know I was probably expecting a full indoor temple map when I first saw the name of the map from the killer trailer.

    Honestly even when comparing to the Clown's map this seems like a more blatant just slap on than anything else

    As long as it's not Coldwind Farm or Ormond, I'm alright with it.

    Besides the Red Forest theme outside the temple, the map looks really nice. However, the design does fit in with their context on how the temple is from the killers memory and placed into the entities realm rather than the actual temple. I would've loved a more desert type of map but yeah the map looks a bit out of place but I guess that's what they were going for

  • Asssthetic
    Asssthetic Member Posts: 203

    They should try to aim for a map every mid chapter but I guess that's too much to ask but hopefully in the future
