BTW, are we still getting the Alpha/Beta camos on the 24th, or does this mean they're being pushed back to this March patch_
Well, the patch was scheduled for the 26th and not the 24th, but yes, this means it's all been pushed back. Nothing is happening next week. At least, no content/balance patches.

Just to set expectations at a reasonable level:  This will be a blockout or "white-boxed" map, similar to what some of you may remember from the Alpha days.  The map is early in development and we want you guys to try it out and give us feedback as we progress with it.
I'm glad the non-Alpha folks get to see this barebones approach at last, as we Alphamonkeys each enjoyed the look and feel of [-REDACTED-] the first time around.  You guys should perhaps consider making this style into a 'feature map' in some way, maybe explained as being part of combat training set in a simulator.

Yeah like that h0B0, but its different.  It's not THAT map from Alpha...  Can you even post that_  I'm calling the Royal Mounted Police.

I for one was rooting for "that" map to make its reappearance in all it's whitebox glory. Oh well, I'm sure NotKjell will rejoice at his 30fps while the map is untextured/flatmodeled.

Hi guys, just to give some vague answers to some vague questions. The new map is approximately symmetrical and currently supports Missile Assault (and DM/TDM obviously). It doesn't support Siege at the moment but we want to and are prototyping some ways to support it in the new style of this map.
