Emerge is a community-created Payload map. It takes place in an industrial complex in Alaska, USA.
Emerge was contributed to the Steam Workshop.
Contents
Locations
Checkpoint A
- BLU's First Spawn: BLU's initial spawn has three doors; one behind the cart, one on the bridge directly above the cart, and one on a drop in front of the cart. It also has two resupply cabinets; one near the door behind the cart and one near the drop door.
- First Yard: the initial open area of the map. A structure on its center serves as support for a simplistic wooden bridge that connects the BLU spawn and the Choke Building.
- Choke Building: a two-story building that the cart must go through. On the BLU side, it can be entered through the cart's entrance (and its adjacent door), through the bridge, and through a door on the far left. On the RED side, it can be entered through the cart's exit, through an open window on the second floor to the far left, and through a side door with some tracks leading to a dead end on the right.
- Second Floor: while the second floor in the area the cart goes through it simply a catwalk, it extends toward another building and goes on, passing by one door of BLU's second spawn and a drop, leading to the other door of BLU's second spawn and to a flank route that leads to just past point A.
- Second Yard: the second large open area of the map, where the cart must go up a ramp to reach point A. The ramp is not steep, so the cart does not roll back immediately if left unattended, and has a small health kit under it.
- Flank 1: a flank route behind the building facing the Choke Building. While the first exit takes players to just past point A, the route keeps going, eventually meeting BLU's third spawn.
- BLU's Second Spawn: A big room that becomes active if BLU manages to capture A. It has two doors, one inside and one outside the Choke Building (left and right when viewed from within the room, respectively), with a nearby resupply cabinet each.
First BLU spawn.
First yard.
Second yard.
The flank path.
Capture point A.
Second BLU spawn.
Checkpoint B
- Stairs Room: the interior of the building to the left of point A. It is the shortest route between A and B.
- Arch: a narrow passage under a building's arch that the cart must go through.
- Third Yard: the third large open area of the map.
- Tracks Building: a building sheltering part of the tracks in a short corridor.
- Observation Deck: the most elevated part of the area, it is a room with a big opening overseeing the Third Yard.
- Flank 2: going up the stairs in the Tracks Building and passing by the Observation Deck is the Flank 2, which connects with the Warehouse's interior and, eventually, to the RED spawn.
- BLU's Third Spawn: BLU's third spawn becomes active if they manage to capture B. It has two doors and two resupply cabinets.
The stairs room.
The Arch.
The third yard.
The tracks building.
The second flank.
Third BLU spawn.
Checkpoint C
- RED's Spawn: RED's only spawn has three doors, two facing one another, and one with a resupply cabinet near it.
- RED's Room: the sheltered area immediately outside of RED's spawn.
- Entry Yard: the small open space in front of point B before the cart enters the Warehouse. A door on the right leads to the Warehouse's catwalk where the Flank 2 is connected.
- Warehouse: the big and last building the cart must enter. It has one large room containing a large ammo pack and a small health kit, as well as the Cart's Corridor.
- Cart's Corridor: a long and narrow passage that the cart must go through, with a few crates providing some cover for the players entering with the cart.
- Final Yard: the final open area of the map.
- Veranda: a slightly elevated platform accessible through RED's Room with an overview of the Final Yard and a long sight line of the Cart's Corridor.
- Checkpoint C: the hole in the ground that the cart must be thrown into. Once the cart goes over the steep ramp at the end of the tracks, it hits the planks below as it falls, breaking the improvised bridge and taking the large health kit (as well as any players unlucky to be crossing at that moment) down with it.
RED spawn.
The cart corridor.
The warehouse.
Final point.
