I get that most of the people wanted to have smaller maps in team games… but on black forest, I think this was too much… There is no space to build anything. Three players had 2 stones in the base, probably no space to spawn…
black forest was and it still is the worst aoe4 map
Not sure about 3v3 but whole 2v2 community was thrown under the bus. 2v2 maps were never a problem and now there are not enough resources on the map. The constant change to force players to start fighting in dark/feudal age because thats how they think it should be played. Why don’t they just put TCs together and villagers should start fighting in dark age.
I only played 2v2 and it seems its time to say goodbye, What a terrible change. Good luck playing game on such a dense map.
Just get rid of that stupid map already. I rather instant quit getting a loss than playing it.
I just tried one game last night, and it was 2v2 on king of the hill. I felt the smaller map was an improvement. If the resources per player aren’t adequate, that can be fixed by changing the map generation code, it doesn’t mean the maps need to be bigger. I still had 2 golds near my base, after that I went for gold on the hill, this seems reasonable to me. Maybe there’s a specific problem with black forest that they can patch quickly, though like others above, I don’t particularly like that map.
I like Black Forest though

I personally enjoy black forest lol.
Dry Arabia and High view on the other hand…
Yeah, it’s very different play style, so I get if someone dislikes that… I typically could enjoy it as well, but now it feels very tight and a completely different experience.
For me on that particular map, worse than before. Couldn’t try other 3v3 maps really yet, because someone always dropped out before the match began or literally quit when the first enemy scout (after 3 minutes) was spotted at the own base… But that’s a different topic… lows of team games
