Some of the container housings even have interior:

I even found a cave where a small mech (or several) can fit. You might want to check for hiding trolls or consider it for ambushes:

Nice work, map designers!

Its really good. Some areas could use some work on the texture stretching and lod popping, but overall I really like it. The scaling is great too and really gives us a sense of being in a mech.

The fog at dawn is one thing I found that I dont like though.

I think for the next map they should let their designers go really crazy with the lighting, make something really alien (not brown or yellow please ^^).

And they need to make a Union class dropship that is old and destoyed. It could be used as a terrain object because of how massive they are.

These are some pretty screenshots, but the first screenshot actually makes no sense, as the reflection of the sun breaks the laws of physics. There is no evidence of the mountain when you look at the water. Reflections in MWO in general make no sense, because they're not actually reflections. For example, the water in Viridian Bog and the frozen lakes in Grim Portico are actually "reflecting" a texture that is in no way affected by the actual surroundings.

Still, the new Forest Colony looks good. I especially like all the abandoned colony stuff :)

I enjoy all the hiding places near the forest.

Yes it's really good. I had a hard time orienting myself at first, since I couldn't find anything familiar, until I found one sides spawn that was still a bit similar to the old map, with the crane and the over turned boat.
PGI has come a long way in terms of developing different battlefields... Now If only that same creativity was used in the CW maps!!

A bit hard to see, but it has some crates, an armchair and a table inside.


These have always been there, you just had to look. :]

It's looking really nice! I only explored a small area of it so far.
