The Map

[Slargos]

Is it just me, or does the map look generated rather than painted?

Does this mean that it is dynamic, and there can be in-game changes, such as canals?

Is this what Johan was hinting at with his "map" comment?

One screenie isn't enough to tell.

What I do hope about the map is that it is completely re-drawn, not just modified. HOI had all kinds of strange shapes in the New World because it was bsed initially on the EU2 map (New Zealand, anyone?).

thats definatly a game that will be going onto my PC when it comes out, the map looks good and this time it actuly has some realsiam in it like thier still drawn but they are maid to looks like Satilite pictures terrain more or less, all I cna say 100% improvment on that background terrain for the map, wiht the trees and raised areas

hop we see some good Mauntine graphics also on the map not just 2d work.. be a shame if that were the case, ill be whating this games development wiht great anticipation hopfuly I can get into the Beta this time when ever that may come around, I mist the last 2..
