Map Overview | |
Granary is an Arena map, and is a modified version of Granary (Control Point). Granary, along with Lumberyard, Ravine, Well (Arena), and Badlands (Arena), was released with the Heavy Update as the one of the first official Arena maps for Team Fortress 2. Similar to other modified arena maps, Granary (Arena) is generally the central Control point area of its Control Point version.
The goal of your team is to eliminate the entire enemy team or capture the central capture point.
Contents
Introduction Video
Locations
The Yard
The central area from CP_Granary. The area has several shipping crates stacked around the platform in the middle, upon which the Capture point is situated.
RED/BLU Catwalks
The metal pathways along the far walls of the Yard. One catwalk corresponds to each team's spawning area, and can be accessed by a nearby set of ramps.
Strategy
- Aside from the boxes, there is very little cover on this map. Staying mobile is an imperative.
- By jumping from the catwalk you can get on top of the storage crates. This method can be useful for Spies and Pyros trying to get behind the enemy and catch them in a surprise attack from the rear.
- When fighting around the point, use the containers to gain a height advantage. As a Demoman or Soldier you can Sticky jump or Rocket jump up to them. If you're not a Rocket Jumper, (Snipers for instance are useful there) you can still get on the containers by jumping from the balcony ramps.
- The containers are not parallel to one another, so you can avoid fall damage by landing on the edge of one container, then the floor. This is helpful for Spies to avoid taking unneeded damage.
- This map is much more Engineer-friendly than a lot of other Arena maps. Making a small base with a Dispenser and Sentry Gun on your side of the map can give your team a point to fall back on in times of struggle, as well as support those who are temporarily retreating from the frontlines.
- The Sandman can be very useful here. Try to negate the height advantage of enemies in the central area by rendering them defenceless with a Sandman ball. The Flare Gun can also be used in a similar capacity.
