TF2 Heavy Map Details
Team Fortress 2 A Heavy
Update has details on Badwater Basin, a new Payload map that will be
released as part of the upcoming Heavy class update for the teamplay
shooter:Badwater Basin is a Payload map focusing on more open spaces and
less chokepoints than Gold Rush. (A) Right out of the gate is a multi-level area
where the Blu team needs to control the high ground while moving the cart
through a tunnel below. This open area has few natural choke points, allowing
Scouts, Soldiers, and Demomen to move creatively through the space, forcing the
Red team to rapidly respond to choices made by Blu. (B) As the track winds its
way into tighter spaces, vertical control becomes more important. Each
successive checkpoint requires the Blu team to take control of defensive
positions above the track, usually occupied by Red Engineers. (C) Eventually the
track winds down into a large basin which the Blu team must assault from all
sides in a final push to destroy the Red base.
Unlike Gold Rush, where the track is split into three separate stages, Badwater
Basin uses a single large stage with several checkpoints. As a result, the Blu
team is highly encouraged to push the cart hard after beating their way through
the Red defensive line.
