[quote]If we had to single out our favorite map from what we played, Damavand Peak would be it. Damavand is a Rush map, and what makes it interesting is how it handles the spawn points. At one point the attacker's spawn becomes a cliffside bunker with a sheer drop off. The next defending base is a couple of hundred feet down. While you could take one of the helicopters and gently set yourself down like a pretty princess, real men base jump off the bunker and pull their chute before they splatter all over the objective.[/quote]

This map is one that has yet to be revealed, but it seems to be pretty unique. It sets the attacking team on top of a mountain, base jumping down into the fighting area. We don't know all of the specifics of it, but it's definitely a cool premise no doubt.
This is a slight break of embargo by Gamesradar, as the final 5 BF3 MP maps will be revealed this Friday.

That. Sounds. Epic. Unless people camp up top and RPG/Grenade/Snipe. But I guess they have a solution to that. I'm guessing it's the part we saw back in the first(ish) trailer where they had soldier jumping off a mountain. At least that makes a bit more sense now...

[quote][b]Posted by:[/b] Xagy Yamalia anyone? And yes, this sounds awesome. Doubt there'll be a base jump in Conquest, though.[/quote] I bet there will be for the US team. That's where the Little Bird spawns. I'm sure there will be some sort of spawn protection with this. It wont just be land and then get owned.

[quote][b]Posted by:[/b] philace117 Nothing we haven't seen before. In BFBC2 you spawned jumping out of a helicopter while playing Conquest on Nelson Bay. But still badass.[/quote]It seems a bit different. Unless you were getting dominated, you still had a safe landing zone on Nelson. This map sounds like you're dropping right onto the enemy base.

And on defense, I'm going to be trap shooting with an automatic shotgun. Muhahahahahaha!

I better not get shot while base jumping god BF3 needs a spawn shield.
