In all seriousness, I'm hyped for a new map and hope the needs of each group of descendants are considered and factored in.

Looks awesome guys, best of luck !

can we just make a moment to appreciate how ******* impossible those slopes are? it would take you hours to traverse, and it'd be pretty much impossible to build on. just like how the trees in the first teaser had literally thousands of blocks and will be impossible to get cut down. look, don't touch.

Actually, yeah. It looks pretty in theory, but it feels a bit too... untravelable...

 

The island looks lit tho...

Also, to look into this: 

 

This doesn't feels like something exactly new overall... just reminds me a lot of Sutica's island, like its an expansion or branch. Maybe you could alter a bit the terrain so we're not stuck with a single terrain.exe file or something... I mean, I know its a new map and all, I think that the Build Team is very well capable of making it good looking. Just add a block or two in the ground with some sort of //replace command then percentages. Personally, I like new things and experiences, a single block might make some good difference.

 

This is a picture without shading, so we get a better view.

 

 

This looks new, I like it. As long as there aren't too many of these clay hills, this would be a good terrain for travelling by horse. The trees give off a nice texture and feeling.

Personally, I'm not a big fan of these weird terrains and mountains when you stack snow upon snow. They're a pain to walk in and through. The trees... don't make much sense. Its on sorta a rocky terrain, and the fort has a feeling it came out of the ground, look at the rocks close to the second tree. There's ice all around the fort, but the leaves are fine, just a bit of snow in them. Personally, I think the picture feels just like another expansion for the current snow we have right now; a lot of mountains, and a pain to walk through.

 

In other words, I'd very well, personally, like to see new stuff, not just some expansions that makes Axios feel bigger... such as the snow biome picture. Btw, the map looks fine in size(as you can see in the picture of the orcs)... seems like we won't need to use fast travels

 

 

TL;DR

I want new fresh prince of bel air stuff

also try making orc ruins, orcs are cool, they deserve a map AEOEAOEAAAAAAAAAEOAAAAAA

you guys are making sure he isnt hiding diamond/iron blocks on this map right 

[Man of Respect 5471]

Actually, I'd like to add that making the north feel bland will make it better. AKA no stacked snow, only normal snow.

We did take a poll on how the community would like to transition to 6.0 and the results were overwhelming that the community didn't want a temp map and instead wanted to transition straight to the map.

We have the chance to get a brand new crafting system, which the community may or may not like and it can't be implemented this map without destroying a lot of ****. I wanted a new map, the great 6.0 map which Uruks are being cheated out of and have to share a main event line with elves because the ET screwed this map up for the elven nations. But honestly, if you're going to implement huge changes, do a temp map for 2 months. A whole new nations system is something I heard talks about. You guys did this with Thales with Nexus. Why can't you do it now.

Also Eath, this is the uruk map and elven map. The next map after will be the uruk map completely or a minor guild map. The ET and LT screwed this map up for the elves and without a temp map like Vailor, the Uruks get screwed. In case most of you didn't know.

Athera, 4.0 - Dwarven Expansion Map. East of 2.0. Outpost where Iblees was locked up.

Vailor, 4.5 - ET and LT failed on the Dwarven Event Lines - Became Dwarf and Elf map. No relation to 2.0.

Axios, 5.0 - Elven Expansion Map. South of 2.0. Some Random thing. ET and LT screwed up, next map is given to the elves.

6.0 - Urukish and Elven Expansion Map. ET and LT screwed up with last map, so it's shared between Uruks and Elves.

 

With this, **** the elves. Only uruks matter.

I have never in my life seen a bitchier, whinier, obnoxious and rude community on any server, any game or any site. Jesus lord all mighty save us all. Four pictures and people are already grabbing their pitchforks and lighting fires.

[InfamousGerman 1553]

seems alright except for the big trees

@Ang 

A builder without peer Ang has dedicated long nights and days to working and creating some of the most amazing builds on LotC to date, including our spawn - Cloud Temple. He leads up 6.0's build process as the Build Lead.

A bit of a stretch there 501.

i have found that the more time the staff team puts into thinking about a map the worse off it is.

 

hopefully they dont think too hard and release it within the year.
