Two-story structures jut out of the mountainside, forming a network of walkways and garages that extend out to a much taller building that towers over the lowland area.
Crisscrossing the entire map are tire tracks that point to Unearthed's focus on vehicles. Human players can find a Warthog armed with a missile launcher turret that, according to O'Connor, acts as a real force multiplier for the Spartans.
We found those words rang true time and time again as we used the emergency brake to slide through crowds of Grunts while our gunner rained fiery vengeance down on the evading Elites. The Covenant brought its own vehicles into the fray before too long, challenging us to navigate in and around the structures to dodge enemy fire and better position ourselves for an assault.
Those who like their Firefight matches fast and vehicle friendly should get excited for Unearthed, as should anyone else looking for a new battleground on which to fight the Covenant. For those who prefer to focus on competitive multiplayer, the Defiant Map Pack has two offerings in store. With only eight stations set up at the event, we were only able to play the smaller of the two, Condemned. Aside from the obvious architectural similarities, both involve a low-gravity area where players can duke it out while floating whimsically through the air.
Yet while Anchor 9's low-G area was outside the ship and presented the peril of flying off into space, Condemned's low-G area is located right at the heart of the map, a tall multistory chamber with some sort of turbine located in the center.
Players can enter this area from multiple points on two different floors, and the ramps and walkways surrounding the turbine can help you get around faster or evade an enemy's bullets.
Jetpackers beware: If you fly too vigorously, you'll zoom up into the domed ceiling area. With no place to hide and not much gravity to pull you down, it's like shooting astronaut fish in a space barrel OK, maybe some phrases weren't meant for the future. The rest of Condemned is a warren of interweaving decks, corridors, and platforms that seem like some of the most intriguing new battle spaces we've seen for Reach.
It will likely take players a while to get the lay of the land, though it's definitely worth seeking out the ship's windows. As glimpsed in the trailer below, there is a fierce battle playing out between the UNSC and Covenant ships. Even more chilling is the view of the planet's surface, which radiates with horrific fires caused by relentless Covenant bombardment.
O'Connor told us that the map earned its name by actually being condemned--so damaged in battle that it will eventually crash to the planet's surface.
