Embargo is a community-created Payload map released during the Summer 2024 Update. The map is set in Cuba, featuring a Payload track through the streets and the "Rojo's Casino", which plays music all throughout that can be faintly heard from outside. The map follows a strike team from the USA's (BLU team) efforts to deliver a bomb filled with paint (to dye the money and brazilium) to the center of El Comandante's lair, the fictitious dictator of Cuba, who sends his elite squad (RED team) to stop them.
This map features its own announcers: El Comandante (RED) and Agent 96 (BLU).
Embargo was contributed to the Steam Workshop.
Contents
Features
Embargo features a Payload cart that changes form throughout the map, being brought in by a helicopter at the start, then going from the standard Payload cart to inside the back of a truck. When the first checkpoint is captured, the Payload cart can be pushed into a truck's shipping container where it must be ridden via the platform behind it, similar to Li'l Chew-Chew from Frontier. When the third checkpoint is captured by BLU, the top of the container opens up, and the Payload cart is removed via an overhead crane before being placed back onto the track.
Robots
All around the interior of "Rojo's Casino" are small red robot butlers. They are harmless and are found exclusively in the casino area, and can be attacked and destroyed. Some of the robots can be found roaming around the casino floor on a set path with health kits on their trays. These health kits can be acquired by both teams, but the robots actively pursue injured RED players to deliver kits to, whereas BLU players are ignored. When picked up, the health kits respawn on their serving tray after 10 seconds and, if a robot is damaged, they either stop moving, roll in circles, or flee the player. When destroyed, they drop a health kit on the floor if carrying one and respawn after 25 seconds. Dropped kits despawn after 15 seconds.
Additionally, some robot butlers can be found roaming around out of bounds, as well as manning the various forms of gambling around the casino. When destroyed, they do not drop anything and respawn after 25 seconds (except for the robot butlers at the gambling tables, which never respawn).
Accompanying lines from the announcer play after a robot is destroyed depending on the player's team. If a player is standing in front of a robot, it rolls around them to get past.
