Map Overview | |
Probed is a community-made King of the Hill map created by [UEAK]Crash. The map was created for and won the 2014 TF2Maps.net Major Mapping Contest #11, "Mercs vs. Aliens".
Two identical paths separated from each other conjoin together at a central point. Along the paths are balconies connected via bridges providing defensive positions for Snipers and Engineers.
To win, your team must hold the lone Capture Point for three minutes like any standard King of the Hill map, while avoiding the alien UFO that periodically flies over the point to abduct unaware players.

Overview of the map.

Locations
- Barn Spawns: Outside the spawns are three pathways to choose from. All three lead to the same pathway to the control point.
- Rural Pathways: Over the dual pathways to the control points is a catwalk for height advantage.
- Grain Silo Control Point: At the control point is a second floor structure for sniper advantage. The grain silo in front of the point is open on both pathways.
- Alien UFO : Periodically a UFO will fly over the Control Point and activate it's tractor beam, sucking any players near the point into the spaceship. Speed is increased inside the craft, however all players will begin taking damage due to the alien's toxic atmosphere. On both sides of the craft are corresponding team Teleporters that will return players to their team's side of the capture point. Upon exiting the player is restored to full health and given a few seconds of Uber.
Update history
Beta 9
4-24-15
- Overhauled alien explosion damage filtering to fix exploit where players could kill teammates
- Doubled alien explosion damage
- Reduced capture time slightly
- Reduced capture zone back to original placement
- UFO now hovers for 3 seconds before starting tractor beam over point. Stil stops 8 seconds after arriving. (this gives you a chance to run away/ hide from it)
- Nerfed buff coming out of ship significantly. Uber half as short (still there to help disorientation coming out of tele), now gives you mini crits for 6 seconds.
- Changed speed boost type on board ship (no longer infinite jumps variety)
- Fixed missing pre-teleport in particles for on-map alien spawns (warning of telefrag)
- Adjusted some health/ ammo placement (experimenting a bit here)

Beta 7
3-13-15
