Layout
Battle Creek is a small, mostly symmetrical map with two nearly identical bases located on either side. The map is split transversely by a creek that drains into small caves on the either side, each containing spawns for Active Camouflage. Each base has a 2-way teleporter connecting red base to blue base, and vice versa. These teleporters go both ways and are on the back of both bases. Both bases have small ledges where Sniper Rifles spawn and are accessible by ladder. Without any custom weapon sets, both bases contain an Assault Rifle, both kinds of grenades, a Needler and a Plasma Rifle can be found outside the base on either side. A large natural stone arch stands in the middle where the Rocket Launcher spawns.
The map also has an Overshield and a Health Pack.
Hints
- To access the roofs of either base, a player can jump onto small ledges located on one side of the base (a boulder at red base and a wedge of concrete debris at blue base. Once there, a player will have a commanding view of the map, but is exposed to enemy fire.
- It is possible to stand in some of the trees located around the map by jumping down into them from the two sniper ledges located at each base.
- If you pick up the Active Camouflage, go to the other side, crouch, and walk in. You will be in a small cave under the water. Players will barely be able to see you, so you can throw grenades and give them a nasty surprise. When it wears off, they can see you only a little bit, but they'd have to be looking straight down into the cave.
- If you are being chased, run into one of the bases entrances and lob a grenade at the walls. The enemy will lose their shields, and give you a chance to finish them off or run away.
- The Rocket Launcher, shotgun, and Needler are popular on this map. Plan accordingly.
Things to avoid
- Do not walk through a teleporter and then back up. You will not go through the teleporter you backed into, and will be telefragged in a short time.
- During a CTF Game, with teams of four or more, beware of opponents throwing grenades through the small windows at the sides of the base. They can make short work of defenders, and give their teammates an easier chance of stealing the flag.
External References
- Battle Creek is the home of the flag-crazed Zealots from the series Red Vs. Blue.
