New minimap icons and old models on other maps
With the SR visual update, I couldn't not think about the minimap. I see the minimap background has been changed but what about the icons on the minimap? Here are some questions:
- Are there going to be different icons for each side?
- Are there going to be different icons for every jungle camp?
- Could the icons for the turrets/inhibitors/nexuses indicate a level of damage. Seeing that the turrets are visually gradually destroyed, the icons could reflect that on the minimap.
- Will the icons be updated (and different) in other maps?
Then, I'd like to point out something else: the old models on the other maps, especially the Howling Abyss. New SR is based on the aesthetic model of the HA but HA will still have the old ugly models for the nexus and inhibitor that have never matched. If SR gets a VU, couldn't HA benefit from it and also get new models for its Nexuses and inhibitors? If so, will the Twisted Treeline also receive new turret/inhib/nexus models or a complete VU?
