they don't give it credit for being a sidewinder recreation.
Read the OXM articles... they do
no they say that sidewinder fans will notice similarities but it is not a true recreation like many of the other maps, sidewinder is a horseshoe, containment is a S curve, fact is they are similar in one aspect, the fact that they both have snow and that is about it, they are not laid out the same, the bases aren't similar, there was no gulch in sidewinder, there was ice in sidewinder...basically the designers looked at sidewinder said"hey we need a large snow map" and then made containment from scratch. No true sidewinder fan considers containment to be a suitable replacement, containment is an awesome map, but it is no sidewinder.
