    So I was playing and the screen between 2 battles got different as always, since it's never shown the minimum infamy required for each map. I took a screenshot cause I found it weird and then I compared it to Battle Bay Wiki. (EDIT) Then I compared with the normal "wait" screen. Here are the results:

    [EDITED]

    Screen.png

    NewMap.png

    I'm not sure at all about the location of each map. And now i'm not sure about new maps. There's a thing about the 2 flags: one is green, so any player, even at 0 infamy could play there (?); the other one requires only 40 infamy to be opened. Why would the make new maps with such low infamy requirements. Or maybe they're just adjusting the infamy requirements of each of this 2 maps?


    There's a fact: in Battle Bay Wiki there are 9 maps, only one map (i'm pretty sure) is not in Battle Bay Wiki: Wayward Pains. In the screenshot I took there are 12 flags. The starting maps are not 2, but 3: First Flood, Cold Riddance , Brawl Park, if they we're all flags, they should be 13.

    Other fact: it is really weird that the infamy requirement for each map were shown even when my Infamy allows me to enter any map.

    There's something fishy here :eek: I really hope these are 2 new maps and not just a glitch.

    I'm guessing that First Flood, Cold Riddance and Brawl Park are not shown due to not being in rotation. Definitely looks like we could be getting a new map.

    Yeah they're not shown, and they'd be additional 3 flags so definitely new map

    Yes, you're right. I'm almost 100% sure.

    This same thing occurred in my game as well about two weeks ago, but I didn't pay attention to the flags. It just showed up once and never again. It was noticeable because the minimum infamy was shown. But I didn't screenshot it. I just went about my battles and didn't think anything more of it.

    I don't think you can play at cold riddance even at low level, I think that's a custom only map. I could be wrong.

    We are not getting anything new I think. Only buff/ nerf/ sales that’s my guess

    Battle Bay Wiki has a page on Wayward Pains, it's just not linked on the main page.

    Thats because each and every update so far has been underwhelming. Many of us have lost faith and if you have no expectations then you can't be disappointed

    This is what we know:
    1. The devs are hoping to release in the very near future.
    2. This update will be massive, and the devs are hyped
    3. There will be things that have never been done on BB happening.
    4. More than one of the following items will be implemented.
    -New event/gamemode
    -New skins,
    -Weapons
    -New maps
    -More captain levels
    -Legendary perks
    DISCLAIMER
    It is unlikely that all of these will be implemented, but at least 2 will be for sure.

    Again, plenty of what is listed has the high possibility of disappointment.. new skins and a few more captain levels for instance. If this is the 2, never before seen additions.... Well... Underwhelming.

    What? Underwhelming? That would be game changing! New crew member to train, new talents to gain, new skins to unlock, new metas to find, etc.

    Adding a new map pin requires a client update (unless we already hid the map in the build earlier, like we did with Wayward Pains and releasing it on Halloween), so no, not a "leak".
