Contents
Locations
Control point A
Control Point A is located just outside the Cliff's Rocks Inc. buildings.
- Cliffs: The Cliffs are an elevated piece of ground located right outside the Blu's spawn. On them is a small shed with a large Ammo and a medium Health pack
- Cornerstone: Besides the Cliff are a group of boulders in which one of the Cable Cars' pole is set. They provide good cover to the attackers advancing on the said Cliffs.
- Warehouse: This is a square-like wooden building which contains many boxes and crates, hence the name "Warehouse".
- Side Building: Opposite of the Warehouse is the Side Building. It acts as a flank route to the Cliff's Rocks Inc.
- Cliff's Rocks Inc.: A fairly complex building adjacent directly to checkpoint A. It houses the Blu's second spawn, while also acting as a buffer zone between the Point A and Point B.
Control Point A
Control Point B
Control Point B can be found inside the big wooden hut just outside the triangular house. It can be entered from above or below, with above granting a small health kit.
- Valley: Leading out of the Cliff's Rocks Inc. is a muddy valley filled with many rocky boulders.
- Gated Shortcut: Blu's third spawn. Also contains a one-way gate which can only be opened from the inside.
- Triangular House: A comically triangular house can be seen standing besides the B Hut.
- Water Tower: Right across the Gated Terminal is a wooden water tower. There are also some catwalks encircling it, which can be standed on.
- B Hut: The large structure which houses the entirety of B point.
Control Point B
Control Point C
Control Point C, and its surrounding area, is completely encompassed inside the Cable Cars' terminal.
- Server room: The central room of the aforementioned terminal. It usually serves as a forward base of operations for the Blu team.
