Hey all!
We're currently working in the Battlezones. The map will consist on a much more simpler and open version of the one that has been launched a long while ago. Here it is:
As you can see in the image, the map itself possess mainly a triangular shape.
The violet dots in it represent the spawning zones, which will act as bases for each team, and as a respawn point if a team member dies.
These zones will be limited by the game to ensure they're safe zones and don't promote camping, providing both health to those who wish to go back to their base, and considerably damaging the enemies that try to invade them.
They'll also provide, when a team member revives, a short speed buff that'll allow players to get back into the action as soon as possible.
The red dots in the map show small terrain bumps. Their function is to avoid the main road that communicates bases with the central triangle, to become bottlenecks for ranged players to exploit.
In any case, although there are 3 main roads, considerably wide, you'll also find side lanes through the map's outskirts, forming a circumference, also communicated with the center. These can be used to both escape risky situations or engage in surprise ambush attacks.
Finally, the green dots will consist on 3 small equally-sized zones (although by the angle in which the photo was taken, they may not look the same), where every certain amount of time mini-bosses will spawn.
These AI-controlled bosses will provide with interesting buffs to those teams that eliminate them, as well as the tactical possibility of refraining the enemy from obtaining these advantages.
The bridges seen in the picture are purely decorative. The zones that are communicated by them are not reachable.
Lastly, you'll note that the map looks a little bit "empty". This is because we haven't added props yet, for explanation purposes.
We hope you're as excited as us to launch these game mode again, and to keep on working in other match modes so we can bring the Battlezones back to Regnum soon.
Thank you for reading, and have a nice weekend!
