Looks like this isn't rolled out to everyone. I'm not seeing the 3D version (logged in & incognito).

  on my work computer, which is tunneled through san francisco, so i show as in USA, i can see the 3D map. checking maps on mobile which is on Canadian ISP, in chrome and the google maps android app, i can only see the "flat" map.

    Thanks. I thought it was a "browser thing". My desktop firefox shows flat maps only. -ss

      i can confirm that chrome, firefox and IE browsers show the new view with my location as USA only.

  I don't see the map either (and I'm in US).

    I see it in Europe. Probably affected by your browser and/or extensions.

      It works on Chrome. Did they disable it for FF?

  For rollouts like this, a small holdback experiment is typical, to assess long term trends. Or maybe your browser doesn't have hardware acceleration enabled? Or you could be in canvas mode? Try ?force=webgl on the end of the maps url in case it's the latter. Try shadertoy.com to see if webgl is available.

    Webgl works on my browser. Shaders work. Google maps is still flat. force=webgl does nothing. I'd say it's a partial roll out.

    ?force=webgl fixed it for me, thanks
