With the added capture point on Snow Castle, what all y'alls opinion on adding a second capture point on on the airfield cap of Baltiisk Peninsula?
Just started watching a Youtuber's showcase of a Baltiisk Peninsula play and he said out loud to not invest too much in Hotel as it is useless. Which is 'common' knowledge and also fair. With Snow Castle getting the new capture point recently I was wondering how much the Hotel cap would be appreciated more, if there was India cap added as well on the same peninsula.
Might still be a side-shown like it is now - something to not over invest in -, but it could add that little bit of missing incentive for actually trying to cap it over the entire course of the game, aside of those first few minutes.
I think battling over 2/9 caps might make it more a serious investment to consider seriously, in contrast to the current 1/8 caps.
This would not take away from the caps already on the main peninsula with points A thru G, as having one additional cap over your opponent on the main peninsula will get you the difference between getting 1 or two thresholds for points.
i.e., it would make the battles on the main pensinula more important to whichever side controls 4 caps, instead of 5 or 6 caps at the moment. Controlling a 4th cap would then make the difference between earning +1/+2/+3 and +2/+4/+6 more prominent.
What do you guys think? It might not make the map without flaw, but I think it would at least make it a more interesting map with a wider front than it currently is.
