Derelict is a small, symmetrical map where battle is fast and furious. The four pillars near the center of the map support a cross-shaped system of catwalks. These catwalks are accessible only by teleporter. The catwalks make excellent sniping or grenade-throwing positions, though standing still at any place on this map means inviting a swift death.

In the center, on the upper level is an [[Overshield]], on the lower level is a [[Health pack|Health Pack]]. The [[Active camouflage|Active Camouflage]] is on the upper level between two lights. The [[Sniper Rifle System 99C-S2 Anti-Matériel|Sniper Rifle]] is on the area exactly opposite the Active Camouflage before three lights.

*Players ''must'' keep a watchful eye on their HUD and radar to prevent charging into a trap, and getting attacked from behind or flanked.

*If you get stuck with a plasma grenade, head for a teleporter as fast as you can, run into the middle and grab an overshield. This way you may survive, but unfortunately, you will be stuck with 0% shields.

*Grenades (especially [[m9 High-Explosive Dual-Purpose Grenade|frag grenades]]) are very useful on this map. In such a small map, players tend to clump together in bunches that just scream for a well-placed grenade.

*Most combat takes place on the "ground" of Derelict. Jumping into a teleporter puts one on the catwalk system, which means a slight reprieve from the action. As stated above, the catwalks are good for picking enemies off from a safe distance, especially with weapons such as the pistol. Beware, though--after a few shots (or grenades), players will notice you, and a least one will probably join you on the catwalk. Start moving as soon as the enemy begins to return fire.

*Keep moving throughout the whole battle. Players who stop moving, or stop to type on Derelict die very quickly.

*Using the side tunnels and picking up the [[M7057/Defoliant Projector|Flamethrower]] at their entrances can really help in objective based games, as everyone usually runs straight down the middle.

*Grabbing the Overshield and dropping down into the raging battles below can be a quick and easy way to earn some kills, as the individual players will be concentrating on their opponents. Use your Radar to track enemies attempting to assassinate you.

*If one should walk into a teleporter and walk backwards as they spawn, then they should walk into a small alcove behind the teleporter. If used in conjunction with the Active Camo and Sniper Rifle, this makes for an excellent hiding/sniping spot. Just remember that if you see your screen turn white, run out of the teleporter, switch to a weapon better suited to close combat, and turn around.

*In the game data this map is called "Carousel" possibly because of its circular shape and the physical appearance from the top resembles a carousel as the name suggests and could have been its original name.
