Description[]
Desert Outskirts is one of the three desert-themed maps in the game, the other two being Western and Dead End Valley. It is a medium length map with a noticeable lack of cliffs. It is not often picked due to it being quite a hard map to play on.
Layout[]
Desert Outskirts is a map with 2 small bends to the side instead of a straight line from the entrance to exit, however in spite of this the map doesn't have many good tower spots with the only one being the U-shaped bend near the end of the map.
There is room for 2 regular cliff towers ( 1 if its a Railgunner ) on the billboard and one for all cliff towers on the small sand tower near the U-shaped bend.
Tactics[]
- If placed at the end of the U-shaped bend, a level 1 Shotgunner can cover the entire bend.
- It is best not to pick this map if you plan on using cliff towers such as the Railgunner or Sniper.
- Picking this map can lead to a victory if you know that you opponent is relying on Railgunners to deal heavy damage, as they will have very little cliff tower spots.
- Plasma Trooper, if properly positioned, will help out a lot.
Trivia[]
- This map along with Military Base used to be background maps in the lobby.
- This map was added when the game was released.
- This map is possibly the easiest map to glitch in cliff towers onto the small building.
- There is a remodel of this map, for some reason, Planet3arth has not put the remodel into the game.
