MAP DETAILS

PUMPING STATION
Location: HAMIM, UNITED ARAB EMIRATES

Pumping Station takes place in the warehouse and storage yard of an oil field. It is a smaller map with a simple layout, with a lot of cover and many paths. It is good for medium-ranged gameplay. Watch out for opponents throwing grenades from one yard to the next!

WINTERBASE
Location: MURMANSK REGION, RUSSIA

Winter Base is an outdoor map which has a mountain canyon as its central feature. Survival in this map depends on stealth and patience. It is a sniper?s paradise. If you are a small group of players looking for a different experience, this is it.


HARBOR
Location: UDDEVALLA, SWEDEN

Harbor Warehouse is a large open space filled with a maze of cargo containers. Teamwork and timing are the keys to success in this map. Expect a lot of close quarter encounters and keep your eye on all the hiding spots scattered through the map.

PRISON
Location: SAN FRANCISCO, CA, USA

This is a port of the original R63 map Prison, only smaller. The map now consists of the cellblock, the yard, and the northern and west buildings; the infirmary underneath has been closed off to create tighter gameplay. Prison is now a medium-sized map with multiple routes, aimed more towards a Military base-style gameplay. This map should provide multiple routes and something for everyone. Bow that the bottom is closed, running around the map not finding anyone will never be an issue.
