It also features a new design for Saxton Hale as well as some new voice lines.

Outburst was contributed to the Steam Workshop.

Locations

  • Spawn: The BLU team has no Spawn rooms or Resupply Cabinets. They spawn between the "Cliffside Shed" and "Small Tree Stump".
  • Control Point: The main control point, located in between "Tree Catwalks" and "Big Tree".
  • Cliffside Shed: A half burnt-down shed containing a large healtpack located near the edge of a cliff.
  • Tree Stump: Found in front of the Cliffside Shed, has a medium ammo pack on top of it.
  • River of Lava: It flows from the main control point till "Cliffside Shed", where it falls down a cliff beyond the playable area.
  • Tree Catwalks: Near the main control point are two small trees with a wooden platform and an interconnecting catwalk built on them.
  • Mining Shack: Located behind the control point is a dilapidated shack with only its porch remaining.
    • Mining Shack Balcony: Hanging from the side of "Mining Shack" is a wooden terrace, which can be used to reach the "Big Tree Perch".
  • Ale House: A wild-west style building found to the rear of the "Big Tree".
  • Big Oak: The largest and most central location of the map, it is a massive tree with a large and multi-floored interior.
    • Perch: Attached to the side of "Big Oak" are two flimsy platforms, which overview the point.
  • Healing Pools: Two tiny puddles containing a healing mixture can be found on the map. They heal at a rate of 12 health per second and can only be used by the Mercenaries.
    • First Healing Pool: The Healing Pool closest to BLU's initial spawn is located near the "River of Lava", separating it from the Point are the two "Tree Catwalks".
    • Second Healing Pool: Found to the rear of "Big Tree", next to the "Ale House".

Portal orbs

The map features glowing orbs suspended in mid-air which act as teleportation devices. They can be found in 7 different locations, although only one or two orbs are active at any given time. Upon touching an orb, it disappears and the player is instantaneously brought to a new location, which is specific for each orb. After approximately 3 seconds, a new orb appears randomly in one of the 7 given locations. The orbs allow the Mercenaries to quickly escape Saxton if he gets too close.
