How the map works
Objective flow: the order of play, not a map.
- Both teams leave spawnFrom opposite ends
- The point unlocksBeach, Downtown or Volcano
- Hold it to 100%Stand on it without enemies
- Win two roundsEach round is a different sub-map
Key areas
- Beach
- Water on one side and forest on the other, with villas and huts for cover.
- Downtown
- Town streets around the point.
- Volcano
- The most open of the three, so fights happen at longer range.

Coming when the current layout can be verified. Until then, use the objective flow above and the in-game map.
Tactical map pending verificationThe basics
- Objective
- Both teams fight for one control point on the current sub-map. Hold it to build capture progress. The first team to win two rounds takes the match.
- Where you spawn
- Teams start at opposite ends of each sub-map and reach the point from two sides.
Beginner tips
- On Beach, use the villas and huts as cover on the way to the point.
- Volcano is open: move between cover and avoid long walks in the open.
- Check which sub-map loaded: each plays differently.
