So it’s really nice that TC finally got around to making some maps specifically with Horde in mind.
And often if a map could be great for Horde, the Devs will alter it so players can’t hole up as easily (think Mercy or Security). I’ve been saying it for years (since Gears 2) that just because a map is great for PvP doesn’t make it great for Horde. That being said, I’m not saying the 2 new Horde maps are bad or suck in and of themselves, it’s nice that TC is finally making dedicated maps for Horde. And that’s true, which is why TC said they’re pausing work on the tile system to focus on delivering actual new maps to the game.
This is part of the problem with the tile system that TC talked about on their PvE stream prior to the launch of OP4, it’s that they realized the maps started to feel and look all the same.
The 2 that we’ve received are bland and only considered ‘new or refreshing’ because we haven’t had them before.
