Back to old map

[Yebaka]

Is that possible to play on the old map with the last build? Maybe I should disable one of the modules in the launcher? I want all of the new features, races, etc. just on the old map. Don't get me wrong. New map is interesting but only as a test of a concept, beside that it's little empty. I know that old map is just big plain desert but there I had at least more cities to visit/fight. On the new one I've found only 3 big'ish cities and only ONE faction of Not-So-Holy Empire ruling over whole map. I am aware that there are hive villages but they don't even have a city and blueprints to trade. There is also a Mongrel city but path finding through those canyons almost never works. I've made that trip only once to get my hands on katana and wakizashi blueprint.

Same here, I'd love to play with the new features on the old map. I just loved the desert setting. I don't think it's possible right now, though, but don't take my word on that. Also, I've been looking for that katana blueprint for a while now, where did you find it?

North-western part of the map. There is the only city that is not from Holy Empire I've found. It's called Mongrel or something like that.
They sell weapons blueprints but still can't find any BP for armors different than those damn holy fanatics :/

Slightly impossible with out massive amounts of modding. if even then. If you want the old map. there is only one way.
Opt out of Beta.

This is just the first part of the new Map. gotta wait for the rest to be finished and added. This is just one reason why the Beta is in the experimental Branch.

File bug reports. tell the Devs where the pathing is having issues so they can try and work them out.

I get that. But why choose part of the map with only one faction for new world release? Wouldn't it be better if even with current map and amount of cities every city would be occupied by different faction? Lack of variety in allies/enemies and -can't stress it enough- equipment makes it boring after a while? Where is ALL equipment gone? I'm playing almost since release of new world and still couldn't find blueprints for any armor other than holy empire... To make things even better they don't even sell blueprints just crappy quality armors...

Back to the topic. There is Newwworld.mod module in the launcher so I taught that maybe I could just disable new map and play on the old one with features and fixes from latest release

Just posted this in another thread:

I'd imagine that optimizations is extremely important before the playable area gets bigger. Because the more area that's operating, the more you'll have going on. This means more units, more AI's, and overall more madness. More ram usage, lower fps, etc..

A smaller playable area makes it easier for people to play the game and help sort out feature functionality and stability, without the hassle of the above.. So basically, I'd imagine that once the game is stable, and optimized a bit, we'll see a new area open up. It'll likely be a process before the entire map is opened up, rather than opening it up immidiately and everyone's computers running out of memory 30 seconds in.

Step by step, gradual buildup. It'll get there though...

I agree that not having the limited access to content, and having more variation in the small area we currently have would be "more enjoyable", but at the same time, having all the factions in the same tiny area doesn't work in the grand scheme of the map. This means they'd have to just redo everything again later as new areas open up, taking up even more time, possibly encountering even more bugs they'd have to deal with after wasting time sorting out the bugs with the temporary design placement.. It's best to just build up the grand scheme block by block with the final goal in mind.
