Update!
While there was no news about entire map yet, I really want to provide a screenshot and more information about it.
As you can see, there are plenty of changes since the first screenshot I posted months ago.
Gameplay Changes:
*The building skins were change to a more sci-fi like. The issue for the models and skins has been forever, especially when I received plenty criticisms about it. Also, this gave me a new opportunity to remove the ground texture which really add a non-WC3 flavor.
*EchoShards were scrapped, because it creates a tedious resource allocation. And to remove the lumber-resource-WC3 feel. The use of EchoShards (now are known as Crystallites) are scavenge resources along with scraps and mini-supply point, upon getting it, players will immediately get credits conversion.
*Strategy Towers are changed to Strategy Centers, they will provide nearest drop point for Crafter supplies. As for specializing, a new Firebase building will be available for it, planned 6 specializations and unique units. In addition, Firebase are capable using global powers depending on what specialization you choose. It will be 1 limited building. The new firebase-system allows players to cleverly hide them since they are valuable structures unlike the Strategy Towers that is very predictable at the very start of the game.
