A New Airfield

[p]Hello everyone, [/p][p][/p][p]Airfield has come a long way since some of you got your first hands-on experience with it during our public playtest last August. Your feedback has been incredibly useful, and we appreciate you taking the time to participate.[/p][p]Since then, we’ve iterated heavily and want to share how the map has evolved. [/p][p][/p][h3]Why the changes?[/h3][p][/p][p]The original Airfield had a problematic layout, with disjointed objective locations that failed to maintain a healthy pace in gameplay. The plane objective, for example, was placed too close to spawn points – skewing balance and favouring the team defending. [/p][p] [/p][carousel][/carousel][p]The hangar occupied a redundant space, only offering a strong elevated position that exposed too many spawn-to-objective paths. And we’re sure you remember that rooftop on the adjacent building, encouraging spawn camping that was hard to counter in a meaningful way. [/p][p][/p][carousel][/carousel][p][/p][p]Some areas also felt like we were prioritising visuals over gameplay, and we simply didn’t believe that the old Airfield matched the visual identity we’re striving for with Wraith Ops. [/p][p][/p][p][/p][h3]A New Airfield[/h3][p][/p][p]We’ve completely revamped Airfield by organising and reworking areas around objectives. The updated map introduces new lines of combat; dividing sections between areas, and provides players with more options to navigate the map and approach gunfights.[/p][p][/p][carousel][/carousel][p][/p][p]These changes should eliminate the frequency of ‘dumb death’ moments you experienced in the original Airfield. [/p][p] [/p][carousel][/carousel][p] [/p][p]We’re excited to get the new Airfield and our whole collection of maps in your hands in the next playtest.  [/p][p]This game started as a passion project and at its heart, remains true to its core.
