Supertest News: A New Frontline Map

vuque: Hello Commanders, A new map for the Frontline mode with a current designation of “wg_epic_suburbia” is about to enter closed testing. The rules are familiar: there are six zones (bases) to defend or capture, and there are five large guns (the main targets) for the attackers to destroy.   The new map’s setting is winter in the suburbs of a post-WWII Central European city. Here you can battle it out in open patches with complex terrain, small towns, ruins of old castles, a power station, a quarry, vast military bunkers, and among lots of other stuff. The first line of defense is chiefly made up of city blocks with some open passages and approaches. Expect close-to-mid-range fighting here. The second defensive line is less urban, featuring large terrain folds at the flanks that favor bold and swift moves to take the best tactical positions. The power station in the middle is a true redoubt, being one of the most densely built-up parts of the map. The last line (the zone with primary targets) has a mixed landscape with varied terrain shapes. There are military bunkers here, so large you can enter them to outmaneuver your adversaries or to fight them inside. The map is currently in the works, and its looks aren’t final—but rest assured it’s a truly novel map for the Frontline mode you came to like so much  It’s too early to speak of the release date for the map as the testing is just starting.   Pictures
