It's labeled as "pre-release content", and it wouldn't make sense to release a patch when half the studio is on the show floor. They'll probably carry a studio-branch-code dedicated server, and have them play or 0.1.966.1 whatever. My bet is early next week, or just wait until the release patch on the 12th.

However, and i obviously say this without even having played it (duh), judging by the size and pattern of the hills, i fear this map will see a simliar fate as Temple Ruins did. The rather flat hills just seem to make this another sniper heaven while the long, drawn-out pattern will most likely point out the flawed physics and weakass jetpacks even more. I don't want to be a doomsayer and i hope to god that i'm wrong.. but it's just a gutfeeling that i can't shake ;(

Flag better be on the tower. Sup with those pillars?

That turret better shoot rockets.
