When Warzone first launched with Verdansk as its only map, players continually questioned the devs as to when they\u2019d get a new map, and if Verdansk would undergo constant changes as we\u2019ve seen from other battle royales. Over time, the classic map underwent plenty of changes with new POI\u2019s cropping up every so often, but it\u2019s now been replaced by Verdansk 1984 and apparently won\u2019t be returning at any point. While Verdansk \u201984 created plenty of excitement at first, many players have since switched and made Rebirth Island their go-to map, either because of hackers or because they\u2019ve become bored with Verdansk. Well, if NICKMERCS had his way, it seems as if he\u2019d bring back the original version of Verdansk, and it\u2019s not just because he\u2019s high on nostalgia either. The FaZe Clan star was reacting to his first-ever Warzone win when he realized how much better players had it with the older map. \u201cLowkey, the old map was so much better than the s**t we play now, right. The old map was way better man,\u201d he said. \u201cI\u2019m serious. All the little things on the old map were better than the little things on the new map, is what I\u2019m saying. The old map was way better guys, way better. Nostalgia wins every day? That\u2019s not true.\u201d Timestamp of 4:00 It wasn\u2019t just revisiting the old Superstore drop or the areas around it that had Nick gushing over the old version of Verdansk as he also pointed out that he felt the classic Gulag was the best there has been. Plenty of players have asked for a throwback weekend kind of playlist where the classic Verdansk map returns, but the devs have said that the nuke event that launched Verdansk \u201984 makes that difficult.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>NICKMERCS claims Warzone\u2019s old map is \u201cway better\u201d than Verdansk \u201984 YouTube: NICKMERCS\/ActivisionStreaming star Nick \u2018NICKMERCS\u2019 Kolcheff believes Warzone\u2019s old Verdansk map is better than the new version, and it\u2019s not just because of nostalgia either.
