Yeah I can't remember the name of that winter/night map either - it was pretty goofy because it only had 1 fuel point in the far south and 2 munitions points close together in the far north. It was interesting from a gameplay perspective because you could focus on one type of resource but I mostly just remember it becoming a bloodbath around the fuel point lol

Montagris Region was night time, and so was the sturzdorf port.

Why did they cut off all of the blizzard map?

Cold tech is still possible to play. But only in custom games.

==================

Due to player complaint and outcry.
- Blizzard removed. Losing model due to blizzard was wrong, something that would have reduce model to half-life would have make more sense gameplay wise
- Mud maps removed.
- Heavy Rain removed.
- Night removed.

Anything different from cOH1 was the enemy.

There you have it.

Welcome to COH2 T'is is a great website when looking for help.

- Blizzard removed. Losing model due to blizzard was so wrong, something that would have modify unit stat such as accuracy or recieved accuracy would have make more sense gameplay wise + reducing vision.
- Mud maps removed. Seeing the poor pathing design, Mud isn't the true issue here, but when you have some in front of your base and you need every time to micro your troops to get out of it is dumb. It also gives advantage to defensive faction, youhou free mud to cover my flank and also having some units naturally immune to it and other faction that can't even have an upgrade to get immune was dumb.
- Heavy Rain removed.
- Night removed.

Wasn't Kholodny winter a night map or do I confuse that with blizzard I saw on that map during beta? hmm

The name of the night map that was in 1v1 and 2v2 automatch was Bystraya Voda by Qvazar.

Edit: If I remember correctly, the visuals of the map were well liked by most players, including the night setting. The controversial part was mostly the sector layout (with one FP only) and the size.

Also MonolithicBacon's Schillberg Outskirts, removed in the last patch from the 2v2 pool had a night setting.
