Respawn Drops Details on Upcoming 'Runoff' Map
Geoff Smith, Titanfall Designer, has a new blog post about one of the three maps coming in the first Titanfall DLC, expedition. Runoff is a small map featuring canals.
“Runoff was an experiment to try and make a small map but still allow Titans enough pathing options so that they don’t feel constrained or limited. The core concept of the level is multiple layers of paths: concrete canals filled with water and trash below, and upper levels that are cleaner and more industrial. I thought the canals would be cool for Titans to fight in, with Pilots able to jump across them. I also set out to make more choke points in the level, something that is pretty hard to do in our game, at least for Pilots with their enhanced mobility,” Smith wrote.
Smith promised that runoff would be a “pretty fun level that plays very differently in each game mode. You’ll find yourself using different areas of the map depending on what you choose.”
The Expedition DLC will be released some time in May.
