Goal
Your team must simultaneously push your bomb cart through enemy territory, in order to reach the finishing point, whilst preventing the enemy team from doing the same.
Locations
- Hightower - The eponymous hightowers are two parallel structures with a movable platform. Once the payload reaches the platform, it will begin to raise if there are any players standing on it. If the players are knocked off the platform will lower back down to where it was, and if a player from the other team stands on it the platform will halt until one side regains control of it. Once the platform reaches the top it will detonate the payload and end the round.
- The Crossing - In the beginning of the map both payloads move slowly to a crossing, where both payloads will pass by each other. This is usually the focus of combat for the first section of a round.
- The Ramp - After passing through the Crossing, the payload will wind to a ramp located directly outside the enemy team's spawn. The payload must be pushed up the ramp all in one go, much like the hills in Pipeline 3, otherwise it will begin to descend automatically.
- The Cliff-House - A small house that hangs over the ledge at the far end of the map. Useful for spies.
Trivia
- Hightower is the second official Payload Race map, the first being Pipeline which was released with the Sniper vs. Spy Update.
