    Another new PoE2 map...

    I have a map entered in the PoE mapping contest and I thought I would give you guys a chance to check it out.

    It's called "Berezne" ...(I couldn't come up with anything that sounded cool so I just named it after a real Ukrainian city.)

    I don't have enough posts to link a url so I'll try and do a work around to a DL link here....add "http" to the begining of the following string.

    ://files.filefront.com/Berezne_Final_11zip/;6355505;;/fileinfo.html

    To install just extract the zip to your poe2/levels folder.

    You can start a local game to check it out...It is also running on the "VSF PoE2 Test" server....though that server also has a 2142 instance running on it and when it gets full it can get quite laggy.

    Basic map details:

    The map is part forest, part open field, and part village. All along a river and a canal that dissects the map.

    Its basically an infantry/light vehicle/RIB map, but the 64 player version does have 1 tank per side and 1 troop carrier apc per side.
    The 32 player size has 1 heavy jeep and 1 light jeep per side, plus RIBs.
    16 player and fronlines versions are both infantry only.

    I stuck with the PoE idea with the number of takeable flags....64 player has five captureable flags and 2 uncaps...32 size has 3 captureables and 2 uncaps....16 player has 3 flags, all takeable.

    I think you guys might like it, as I really thought out the tactical gameplay aspects and there are a number of vital areas , including bridges/vehicle chokepoints that are important to controlling the map.

    Hopefully my map will make the map pack and servers will actually run it, but if nothing else, it was fun making it and getting to play it with my VSF buddies.

    If you check it out and have some feedback and or criticisms. Please feel free to share. I want to make it as good as possible.

    Very nice map! Kinda feels like Inishail in parts of it with the sounds and overall look of the map.

    Screenshots will help you promote it.

    Ill download it tomorrow as its too late now. If it apparently feels like Inishail, its probably great.

    It's a good map, largely infantry based. Snipers will love it (though I hate snipers).

    Very good map. The forests have enough variation from hills to flat, and the cover is everywhere. The ambience of the whole map with the lighting is also very well done.

    Tactically its also very good. Theres enough room that you can sneak around to a back base or hit a flag from an interesting angle, but, not so much space that its almost impossible to defend against or see any kind of frontline form.

    Strategically i see the Field being the flag nobody wants, but everyone has to have for bleed. I dont see that being a bad thing though. Snipers and good use of cover will reign over the field area for both sides. Tank battles will probably occure here more often than not. Tons of smoke will be needed for infantry to get on the flag, and then once you have it, to revive fallen teamates. But thats not the only way ya can go about it, as back flags are still very possible to attack and defend.

    If this map doesnt get into regular rotation, the POE2 devs are smoking something.
