    So what was Diavik anyways

    Remember that one screen of a CombatTesting server with the map name "Diavik" in it during 1.5 beta? What was that map, a candidate for release in 1.5 but didn't make it?

      Anzio is Operation Shingle if I'm not mistaken. Who knows what happened to the others. Perhaps Daivik was Wake Island with a different name during the pre-beta period so that those browsing Game-Monitor didn't pick up on it? The Sir. guys would know but who knows if they are allowed to say.

          No, Wake was not Daivik during beta testing.

            Anzio was indeed renamed to Operation Shingle. I cannot comment much on the others, except to confirm that Diavik, was not wake.

              We're teetering close to the edge here, so I'll go ahead and remind everyone that certain material regarding this subject is still covered by CT's NDA, and posting said material on this board (whether you are a CT member or not) is against our policies and will result in an infraction.

              Danke. :)

                  If you cant manage to find out the relationship between Anzio and Operation Shingle you will never really appreciate Jason's ability to think.
                  For the record Wake was called Area51 during our testing session's with Tatical Gamer.

                    Then perhaps another Patch may come out .

                    I'd love it if another Map + Patch came out.

                      Yeah, Wake was top secret, except for anyone who had a Sir. guy or a friend of one on Xfire.

                      Wasn't it also called Awake at one point too?

                        Its important to know where the line is.

                        So you can step right over it.

                        j/k ... :p

                          I'm pretty sure I cam across a number of screenshots of Diaviak showing an environment similar to Liberation of Liepzig (bluish night time effects).

                            Ok diavik is the name for a huge diamond mine up in canada pretty much inaccessible too.

                            so there we go, possible NA expansion was in the works?

                              Operation Shingle took place in Anzio and Nettuno in 1944. :p
