[h3][b]Patch Notes[/b][/h3] [b]NEW MAP: KODIAK[/b] [img]{STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/29416633/8ea7747a3c8ac7eeb2c413a79edd9a8ce867027d.png[/img] [list]This new playspace finds players taking part in an Invasion on an Alaska-inspired biome, with key locations like Power Stations, Shelter and Port. Overall, this map was designed with Infantry gameplay as the primary focus, while still offering combined arms combat. [i][1x1 km map][/i] [*] Coastline (South) is best suited for close quarters and mid-range fire fights. Infantry will find plenty of cover from the Port area to Town. [*] Inland (North) is where players will find success with mid to long range weapons like DMRs and Snipers, while also serving as a battleground for armored vehicles. Open fields and elevation changes will grant stronger sniper capability. [*] Between Power Plant and Town you'll notice a small bomb shelter. Utilize it to cross the area safely and avoid exposure to enemy snipers.
