Do you think it will be possible down the line to get a better designed overworld map for the WvW Boarderlands? If we’re going to be playing on these desert BLs until further notice, I’d like the map to at least look pleasing when I open it up to check who owns what objective. Right now it looks like someone literally just copy and pasted the new maps over the old ones. And its even more jarring when you compare it to the nicely designed Eternal Battle Grounds map.

I know its probably a lot to ask at this point following the launch and everything, but I’d like to see some sort of change to the background to at least make it seem like these boraderland maps weren’t just put right on top of old ones.

Yeah, this is a bug. We’ve actually had updated art for the map, it’s just surprisingly difficult to update the world map art on the backend.

You know, “Tyler”… if that is really your name, instead of responding to just fuzzyp, you can maybe respond to me too. -_- My question is, will there be seasonal changes to the WvW maps? =) I enjoy this new WvW, but am hoping maybe, if we are lucky, we’ll see more than just desert in the future?

Of all the threads to pop up this week, this is the one you choose to respond to?

……Please focus on how things function instead of how pretty they are, that’s why so many people are upset with the new bl.

At least they’re updating it. The Alpine BL still had several features shown in the map that no longer existed.
