I don’t mind it. It captures some of that Mag Mell PvP madness. Good combination of open field, hills, and structure.

No one roams, it's all "Spawn and race to the town."

Boring.

The map is the Hib tutorial Map if i remember correctly, which is maybe a bit weird in its shape.
Is it too big or too small, what is your complaint exactly?
All the complaints i heard so far are as to how buggy it is, and some already seem to have found the "abuse potential" of some parts of it.

Too big, too hilly, too many trees; its size isn't utilized since no one wants to run up or down a 70° hill with a face full of trees to risk being blindsided because all they can see is the foliage or their group member's bodies following them, so everyone just races to the town and plays Last Man Standing Battle Royale. If that's what the devs wanted, why not just shrink the map down to a 5k square and let'er rip?

EDIT:
I realize this was an attempt to assuage the complaints about CK camping, and I appreciate it (though I never ran into it enough to think it was the issue the criers made it out to be), but this map is just ... bad.

You mean the City in the Center right?
Yeah, CK camping is kinda "fixed" with this one.
New Map, new issues i guess.

If the Map is big, then it would be good for a roaming playstyle, but roaming is prolly something that comes into play during the lvl50 Range.
The possible roaming zones would indeed be cut short due to the big Hills and the Water itself.

Maybe introduce some random Hotspots that give additional short-timed RP buffs across the Map to Keep the Mass/Grps moving in the later stages?
But that also has its flaws.

Oh, well. Let's see how this event shapes up and improve upon in the next one.

I love the map, the problem is the LoS with some trees.

I like the map, it's like perma hib maze fight. Lots of nooks and crannies, elevated or secluded points. Tough fights wedging people out of their safe places.
Does not cater well to the open-field-speed-mezz-pwn-setup, but that makes it more interesting for me. If you land in a potato group you still have potential to kill stuff.
For the roamers the lake area looked good, just meet there.

I really like the map, too. Good structures to hide and seek. Using the terrain to your advantage. And if u dont like it...just run to the town for a nice brawl. If u dont like the town, circle around it. That was the same on the old map: Run to the center for instant fight or circle the map for picking smaller fights.
Good change to the event!

What i do not liek: It happens in the middle of a work-week. Cant play much in this event cause i have to work and get up early. A pity.

I disliked the map at first but after a few hours it is way better than the old one in my opinion. It's far more varied, and I have been finding tons of fights roading across the map, even far from the main town.

Yes the town is a clusterf***, but nobody is forcing you to go there. There is plenty of action surrounding the town.

Wow, great feedback. I mean really, if you have a complaint, identify issues and have solutions for your issues, otherwise you are just whining and throwing a tantrum.

The map is fun, I like the buildings aspect, a good change from the last map.

My only complaint is some of the Line of Sight issues (not gamebreaking), and I wouldn't pause things to fix it or bother with it. Ex. those damn fences hahaha I mean there is literally almost no fence there but you cannot see through it to cast! haha

It is funny watching people running in the houses and running up the tower.

Feedback here means nothing unless you are one of the chosen few.

Facts.
