Trainyard vs Market, the resemblance is uncanny

(SkrubLord) #1

Something I’ve noticed lately (and probably should have noticed long ago) is that the last part of Trainyard and attackers spawn in Market it pretty much the same place. Is this aknowledged before or am I the first to notice? (I hope I’m not). Was this intentional? Although on http://dirtybomb.nexon.net/game/maps/ where you can see the location the maps are based of (or placed at) in London, Market is nr.7 and highlighted in the pic, and Trainyard is the one far to the upper left (see the pic below). You can see that both places have a brigde to the left, in Market it’s blocked. Both have some kind of yellow cables going up the stairs and to the upper part. Both have two boats to the right, and some kind of canal on the far right, also blocked in Market. The buildings on the sides at the upper part where the container stands in Trainyard are also extremely similiar to the ones on Market. Thoughts?

Pretty sure it’s supposed to be like this isn’t it? I thought the maps on Dirty Bomb were all based off real life locations, so they’re bound to connect at some point or another.

Yeah thats what I thought too, but I’m starting to wonder since they apperantly are located so far away from eachother.

Also looking at those pics the skyscrapers seem to disappear in market, unless it’s a different timeline?

Back in the first tests for execution Market was literally Trainyard last.

Did everyone notice this? Sorry, I just thought it was kinda obvious. Its different but still looks very very similar.

Kinda makes me hope that they will be re-using other parts of other maps as a way of boosting game content. Possibly for new game modes or something? I dunno.

Its been written in the forums quite a lot already and it isnt too hard to figure it out if you pay some attention. However, as i know it was designed this way, same as Dome+Dockyard will/are supposed to be?!

I know i noticed the same

Yea it was noticed ever since Market came out during test days. It was originally named Canal just because it started in Trainyard’s canal. In fact the storage containers where you deliver the drug samples in Trainyard used to be at Attacker’s spawn area.

I should flag you for abuse for making me look at that awful face, Selloct.

Way back, when Trainyard was called Canal, (and Dirty Bomb was called Extraction, before Nexon got involved,) Market was actually the last objective on that map, with a truck in the middle that had to be C4’ed. (I see LifeupOmega beat me to it :slight_smile: )
