The Old Wheel, and some other maps...

[Annie Goodtimez]

I remember the days when floppy playdough people waddled onto their designated color... Before the dock became such a discrace... The way the playdough people grabbed onto the carriages and swung to and fro, fro and to! Those days are now over. Our colorful carriages of joy have been desimated; now this stanky wretched crabbypatty thang has ruined our once beloved wheel map!

All joking aside, I'm legitimatly upset over the changes made to the wheel, and I know I'm not the only one who feels this way. The old design was far more to my liking. The colorful carriages were a fun part of the game; my friends and I would fight over specific colored carriages until it broke off (that or we died).

For those of you who like the new design for the wheel, I respect your opinion.

This is not my only concern. Some of the other maps have now been removed from the game. Vents, chutes, and the subway. Maybe they're just being redesigned, but I'd really like to see them back in Gang Beasts again... Please?

Going a bit off topic... when are we gonna start getting some mods?

Update: All of my questions and concerns have been attented to. I no longer need anymore information regarding the other maps, but if you still want to leave a comment or post your opinion go ahead, I'm happy to hear!

I agree :)

wheel is most likely in its final state, except for the background which will evolve as gang beasts updates. i personally love the new hamburger carts, but i do miss them being colored. maybe the interior could be colored, but not the outside. as for subway and vents, they're just getting redesigns. they'll be added back within the next few updates, along with chutes, which is also getting a redesign.

Though I disagree, I respect your opinion of the hamburger carts, and thank you for the info regarding the other maps.

Mods aren't gonna happen, likely, until the workshop is released, which'll be post 1.0 content along with Story Mode and online, oh, wait

Ok thanks for telling me.

Wheel is still being tweaked, previous version of wheel wasn't perfect. I personally like the burgers, I get your point about the colours. I'm sorry you feel that way about the current wheel map, any major change to a map can divide opinion. I think the key is getting the camera right and making it fun again, though if you're not sold on a crabbypatty it might not be your favourite map. The level has a lot of syncs, floor boards and movable objects and needs tweaking after the timestep change, it's hopefully going to be as fun to play online as old old old wheel was locally.

The Subway, Chutes and Vents maps are all been worked on for both local and online and will return to the game in a future updates.

Mod support is something we will look at in the future.

Seriously the lack of vents and subway (plus the others) feels like i should of payed 10$ instead of what I did. The lack of levels is ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥.

It's literally lacking 3 maps, one of which was never online, and they're all being reworked. If you think you should've paid $3 less, be my guest, that's not how games work when in development.

Thank you for your input. :3

Wheel went from my favorite map to my least favorite map. Half the fun me and my son would have while playing would be breaking the wheel so things would get chaotic and challenging. Now the entire map is basically "fall off and fight until the dock breaks".

Only got this game recently so not played the maps currently being re-worked

buoy and truck could use some work though, especially trucks

Because you're NOT supposed to fall off the wheel, they intentionally made the dock super-dangerous to keep people away from it and make them want to stay on the more solid ferrish wheel. The removal of the floor under the wheel was made with that in mind: now you can kill WHILE riding the cars unlike previous versions where you could only kill people at the very right or left of the wheel.
In short now the stage will punish you for staying on the floor, so IMO it' should be even MORE unstable, it should fall with a touch in my opinion, I always found people who never stayed on the wheel to contraddict the entire pourpose of the stage. Why playing the Wheel stage if you don't fight on the rides? The less stable the floor is, the better, IMO it should be even more fragile than now.

Thank you for leaving your comment. I didn't really think about how the new design improoved the gameplay for the map; I only focused on the map's previous gameplay and appearance. I still prefer the map's original design over the new one, but now I think I can better appreciate the changes made to the wheel. So once again thank you posting your comment, and for giving me a different perspective towards the tweaks added to the map. Thanks to you I guess I don't feel as critical about the new design now.
