    The map is actually a building that Is falling apart because of the floods, that's why u get ceilings, Lots of places to hide (rooms) and water falls. (water running down from floors above)
    (It's an old institute. Anyone else noticed "Wayward institute" written on the wall?)

    Yeah, missiles are somewhat still usable as it has lower projectile arc than mortars. But it's still more challenging to use missiles on this map when you compare it to other maps. There are a lot less openings due to high amount of walls and ceilings this map has.

    I LOVE the new map. It is super fun to play speeder and use mines/torps/cannons. HOWEVER it sucks when you have to play with somebody that is ALL mortars.
    Instead of changing the new map, The Devs should have an option on the pre-battle screen to toggle between TWO weapon loadouts for each ship after we see which MAP we are playing. If they are going to give us a map where Mortars are almost useless, I hope they will follow-up with giving us this toggle option.

    TBH, now that I'm starting to learn the map, I don't really have much of a problem using my fire bomb:


    (ex: 0:55 , 1:08 , 1:20)

    (I would never go 100% mortars though)

    I also had a pretty decent round with napalm the other day, tight corridors and mines can make it hard to escape the flames.

    Dislike new map. Very chaotic map with a lot of passes and short walls, uncomfortable to play on this map.

    Dual napalm/ napalm and firebomb defender here. Firebomb doesn't take a hit as much cuz if it hits ceilings it still goes off (same with frost launcher-unfriends didn't like me much then) but napalm is kinda difficult. Closer to the cap point is much better for napalm trapping cuz you can hide behind that wall and slot some near the left opening (left assuming you're facing the starting points). Overall though I dislike the map due to a good portion of weapons taking a blow to effectiveness. Not everyone wants to use torpedoes and cannons, though full reliance on high arc weapons was still always a bad idea.

    This map is a great start, shows the devs are starting to better and more fully understand what is good and fun about this game.
