Where are they? I know some had to be removed because they were 2cp but what about the rest? Numbani, Havana, Rialto, Blizzard World, why did those need to be removed, also instead of removing Iconic maps like Hanamura, and Temple of Anubis, just edit the maps, and make them push maps, or payload maps.
It would be a shame to never get to play them again. You don’t even need many new assets for the old maps just rearrange walls, and add new routes.
Also as for they old maps that have new day or night variants, why not still have the original time of map in rotation as well more options is never a bad thing.
There were vague hints of a new game type that could make use of 2CP maps a ways back. Maybe in the first OW2 Reddit “ask me anything” thing that they did. So having another game mode make use of these maps is something that they’d like to do. Whether that game mode actually made the cut and hasn’t been quietly dumped is anyone’s guess. If it has been nixxed then yeah, I’d say KEKIsBack has the right of it, and they’ll pop up as PvE maps.
