The Screenshots We Have of Each WoWs Map

[RMS_Gigantic]

It was stated this morning by KGB that those 12 pre-alpha screenshots showed a total of two maps. I decided to take these screenshots which we now all know and love and categorize them based on what map they appear (to me) to display. I'm tentatively naming these maps based on how they were described in the Russian forum.

If you disagree with any of these classifications, let me know why. Otherwise, enjoy!

I partially disagree. Both maps look Fjord-ish.

Arctic would be like huge area of cold nothingness with occasional ice (but not big icebergs).

Other historical cold region would be near Hokkaido, although no big battle there.

You can also use ria coastline somewhere in the name, looks similar but more flat and was formed in a different way than fjords: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ria

This is what was said about the screen shots on the RU forum

Dear forum visitors!

We publish the first screenshots of gameplay World of Warships!

In the images presented in detail and traced historically accurate models of the ships to the U.S. Navy and Japanese battleships, aircraft carrier, a heavy cruiser and a destroyer - all types of warships, which will be presented in the game. You can also appreciate the beauty of the landscape of Norway, Greenland and the Pacific archipelagos in different weather conditions.

Gave the maps new tentative names based on what Crag_r posted (though I doubt they will be given these names, because Wargaming does not recreate real locations as much as they do create fictional locations with strong influences from real life regions during World War II).

 

Also, for those of you who believe that only one, or more than two, maps are being shown, here's the question I asked KGB and the answer I was given:

1) Between the 12 pre-alpha screenshots, how many different maps were we shown? (I might turn it into a game for myself to try to piece together which pictures are of which maps)

KGB, on 19 December 2012 - 04:13 PM, said:

1) Two maps.

Pacific archipelagos

Wish they'd posted screenshots of that.

Heck, I'm kind of surprised they didn't lead off with a blantant copy of Ironbottom Sound, considering the first two lines they're coming out with.

If your computer can play WoT, it can play WoWs. The developers are doing everything they can to make sure of that.
