We bet that you sometimes think about big city lights when driving around the hills of Oasis Palms or taking cover behind the ancient walls of Fort Despair and Naval Frontier. Update 6.2 makes those big city dreams come true. Meet a brand new map called New Bay! It's available in rating and regular battles and in Supremacy and Encounter Battle modes for vehicles of Tier VII and higher.
The map layout in Supremacy mode | The map layout in Encounter battles
Here, massive concrete skyscrapers rise above the clouds while brick buildings from the previous century tell the long tale of their lives. The cable bridge, the map's unique feature, overlooks the city's port, ready to play a part in tankers' memorable battle moments.
[1] Bridge
Let's examine the zones. The bridge across the river is the most unique part of the metropolis. Time after time, quick light tanks will climb on top. Some tank destroyers might take a risk and support their allies' advance since there's a great view of the routes from the spawning point to the center of the map. It's quite convenient to shave off HP from those who dared to capture the base in Encounter Battles, and numerous cross-overs let you quickly change directions. In Supremacy mode, base A is hidden under the bridge. Surrounded by buildings and containers, it won't be easy to reduce capture points.
[3] Park and [2] construction site
You can take a break when you are in the park or the construction area. It's quite convenient to hide under old majestic oaks or in the lowlands of the construction site. Concealed by the dense urban area, you can advance in Supremacy mode by capturing bases B and C.
[4] Chinatown and [5] Downtown
Spawn and go along the wide main roads to reach the district with distinctive eastern elements or its neighbor, Downtown. It's a suitable place for regrouping before retaking the port or pushing the attack. There are a couple great sniper positions suitable for supporting any strike near the Chinese gates. While you're waiting for the enemy to appear in your sights, treat yourself to a donut at a local café!
[6] Cargo terminal and [7] Port Warehouse
Despite the cold wind coming off the river, it's always hot here. Light tanks will try to hit the rears of vehicles at the spawning point of spot every enemy, moving or not. Heavy tanks hidden behind containers and warehouse buildings can easily defend key bases.
[8, 10] Uptown and [9, 11] Central Train Station
Team spawn points are placed at the edges of the map. From there, heavy tanks will roll towards the center, but they should act quickly if they don't want to take some shells to their sides. Faster vehicles will rush towards the bridge. Tanks destroyers can take their time, creep a little forward, and punish careless spotters.
Let's take a ride in a big city somewhere on the east coast of America! You'll experience the two-level gameplay, streets with famous buildings, and a new version of hide-and-seek.
