The Pirates, Vikings and Knights team have released some information about changes to Island and Frostbite in 2.3.
...You can read the full story with full technicolour screenshots here.
Greeting all,
We've got a quick post for you guys today. Two of our more popular maps are undergoing a few changes in 2.3. These maps are quite opposite each other, one being set in the snowy mountains, the other on a tropical island. Both exhibiting wonderful themes and ambiance to compliment their styles.
First on the list for today is pvk_island. pvk_island is a booty map created by Gaz and has always been the most popular map, in both the HL1 version and today.
Because of its popularity and general completeness, not much had to be done to change the map, just a few tweaks here and there.
For starters, a new exit has been added to the Pirate's base, allowing the Vikings team an additional choice in escaping with chests. In the following screenshot you can see some rocks and planks have been added, scaling up to the Hubb Jubb Clubb entrance, that used to be useful only as a way in to the base...
