Best fight layouts in DB (in all versions)

(Glottis-3D) #1

For me numero uno is hack objective in old victoria/waterloo/terminal.

Why was it good?

[ul]
[li] one meatgrind main passage, two backrage routes, and a side shooting spots, and grenade possibilities.
[/li][li] had several lines of defense, allowed to push forward, retreat, etc.
[/li][li] demands very good teamplay to defend, and even better teamplay to attack. And because of all the areas involved it didnt feel small and claustrophobic. I personally had greatest time on that object[/ul]
[/li]
What could have been better?

[ul]
[li]there was a lot of passive defense abuse in the main. (Turrets, steaky bombs, mines)
[/li][li] not very good time 2 hack. Possibly a c4 charge could have been better for that.[/ul]
[/li]
What was your favorite part so far?

After the first barricade on Bridge Alt where you go under the bridge till the end of the EV route.

Why was it good?

  • Head to head fight with close re-spawns for both teams (but Attackers is closer)
  • High ground on both the left and right with many flanking routes
  • Bits of shelter allow you to avoid air-strikes

What could have been better?

  • Having the route from the original Bridge follow but remove the barricades.
  • Give defenders one more route as their right hand side is just a wall so very hard for them.

    Would like this part to be longer. Not just 10 or 15 meters.
    Mb make the whole bridge longer?
    Mb make a barricade on the bridge?
    I liked this part even in the old bridge with weird spawns

The camden 2 last missing obj …

Why was it good?

  • Maybe the only interesting Doc run
  • More routes, more possibilities like the long route over the bridge
  • Real attack / defense front
  • Backrape possibilities

What could have been better?

  • Some geometric change for the last area
  • Add some tricks jump access

The warehouse execution map

Why was it good?

Because I don’t get that claustrophobic feeling like I die instantly if I pop out due to 2-3 people pre-aiming. There are ways to flank and even move unseen to get better positioning. Defense isn’t all about aiming at a spot the opponent eventually comes out of. There was also a variety of combat areas all packed into one spot. Sniper areas on the sides while insides mostly supported close-midrange combat with multiple floors.

What could have been better?

Making that part 1 of a 2 part map. And adding 2 objectives, and perhaps 1 side objective that made getting to the second part of the map easier or something.

I like it to for the same reason

I currently like the second phase of trainyard, but definitely not as a final objective.

I like that there are some different routes that cause the defense to split up a little and rotate to cover, and the openness of it.

Making adjustments to the first stage of this map - firewall/dual objective suggestion by myself/Kroko, and having a nice third phase to compliment it and it would be a lot more fun to play.

The start of the Whitechapel EV is the best layout for a good fight right now. It’s just that similar to the good old ET (not like any map or something, but in spirit).
