Biomass...I like it, it provides plenty of cover so vehicles and dropships shouldn't be a big problem on the new map, granted I've only played one game on it so far but thats my first impression anyway. |

Is it a skirmish game or something different? Also, do they still have Communication and Plateau?
Cheers! |

This map is my favorite! I love Ambush games in Biomass. You really have to look ahead, behind and all around when playing here.
Multiple levels.
Multiple indoor and CQC areas.
Tons of debris and objects to LOS.
Large road accommodates HAVs and LAVs
Plenty of ambush sites for said HAVs and LAVs
Plenty of cover from dropship spam
Please CCP, make tons of maps like Biomass.

Ah, thank you CCP for bringing back old Biomass! <3 <3 <3
This is hands down the best Ambush map and personally I think it even makes a better skirmish map then Communications, very dynamic battlefield with a lot of variance for every playstyle.
Still is my favorite map, especially since there are no "killzones" anymore on the stairs of death back when they forced people to hard-lag for a critical two seconds without exception =\... Those were horribly abused zones ^^ |

That isn't a map fault, it's a CCP spawn coding error. Also, this map is larger than Communication, making those fail-spawn situations rarer. |

I got two matches in Biomass before I lost the will to play. My personal opinions.
Biomass:
It's a depot of some sort. Looks fantastic, and is pretty large considering. The problem? Everyone seems content on camping in the building or HQ if you want. Seriously that was all I experienced for the majority of both my plays. Everyone camping behind the containers (even on my team) or camping inside the building that also can provide a higher ground advantage. Allowing players to crouch at the windor and aim down below and fire. I like the look, but really this map is a personafied campers dream. Mazes of boxes, and walls with one essential building that once occupied is very hard to take back. |

It was stated on some thread that they had some severe memory issues with that large skirmish map in last build hence they haven't released it yet.
Remember those freeze issues in last build ? They were a part of those memory issues.
In any case I'm confident that crater lake skirmish will be back eventually once the devs get it working properly. |

You know that there are three entrances to the hq building (four if you count the two entrances to the same room separately), which come from three completely different directions? Did you know HQ has a rear entrance you can use to sneak up on those guys who camps at the windows? |

No, I had not had the oppurnity to explore the whole map as of yet, and honestly seeing people continue their bad habits has me not wanting to play the map. Why bother? Why should I put up with bad habits from other players who do nothing, but camp? It does not make me want to play. |

From what I can see, Plateaus is still the only Skirmish map in the current build. Communications and Biomass are Ambush only... |

These facilities aren't just plopped down in the middle of no where. I know because I build them all the time.
I harvest biomass on several planets in New Eden. I use communication relay stations and launch platforms too. I have many colonies on barren planets covered in dusty windy plateaus.
Just because it's new to you know this... some of us have flown here before. |
