Blizzard World's 2nd point would be a good FFA map

Do you intent to work on more original maps for FFA? I’d rather prefer another map like chateau.

Sweet.
Also, just a suggestion, but the new CTF map you created for the last chinese new years event might also be good.

I think it would be neat if Blizzard World had completely new sections for different game modes. The whole park IS bigger than what you play normally.

Who’s to say that we can’t have CTF on that big rollercoaster in the distance?

Thank you so much for answering! I’m way excited :slight_smile:

Could you consider Numbani as well? 2nd point will be a nice circular area with main passage, 2 side-ways, space for boops, a bit of high ground, both close and long range areas.

I’m actually going to disagree here. It feels small, There’s not MUCH highground besides for the Starcraft turret which can see the entire map. Those indoor areas are WAY too cramped if you ask me. Not to mention the healthpacks feel very close together on Blizzworld second point, Too much camping and not enough open verticality if you ask me.

But who am I to have an opinion :man_shrugging:

The stairs next to the turret lead to a whole upper level of the Pylon Terrace, which has walkways to the Nexus Experience building and the high ground next to the Diablo Cathedral entrance. It’s not extremely high ground, but there’s a lot of cover to hide behind which will be good for peeking fights.

Are they? I think there’s

  • one mini in the tunnel between Booty Bay and the pathway to the side of the Pylon Terrace
  • one mini in the concession building under the Terrace
  • one mini in the grass by the souvenir cart near the end of the 2nd point (this may have been moved, I don’t remember)
  • one mega in the backstage area under the flight of duskwood ride
  • one mini in the HotS arcade (iirc)
  • one mega in the nexus experience circle room
  • one mini just outside the defenders spawn for second point

I think these are pretty well spread out, but to balance it for FFA they might need to adjust the sizes or placements of a few. I don’t think the camp potential is any worse than any of the other FFA maps though.
