I always noticed the map was designed to basically orbit around a single focal point, but it makes sense to segment the map in a way that funnels combat. It allows for a larger playspace while still directing combat. One of the big problems of larger maps in games is that combat has no flow, no point of focus, but this seems like a decent solution!

PUBG, especially on the early maps is an example of how badly you can mess up the flow of your game by simply having bad map design. One game you're having a long intense firefight, then next match it becomes a fukin running simulator for 14 minutes straight until you eventually get funnelled into the zone with other people. More often than not, you have to be the one actively seeking for a gunfight because of how spaced out everything is and how obnoxiously large the map is with mostly empty fields.

There is another reason for this and its actually a technical one - having these walls dividing the map helps immensely to limit the visibility and thus the amount of resources it costs to render. This is something rather unique to source engine games, since if you look at Valves maps for CS GO pseudo BR mode, they are built the same way, where at all times, part of the map is hidden behind some sort of terrain or a wall.

2:20 Maybe it was just everyone in my friend group, but IIRC a lot of people hated worlds edge when it came out, but that might also just have been because of the campy charge rifle, watson, gibby meta that was going on at the time. Only since like season 5 when they destroyed kc that it's really become the preferred map for me and the people in my friend group. Also kinda of frustratingly they stopped putting ziplines in elevator shafts after worlds edge, not sure if anyone's noticed, but there aren't many places like streamer or construction in the new maps. If there is a zipline in a building you have much less room and no floors to reset your zip hops on. Also if you look at the original kings canyon you can see a bit more of a design direction. To me it looks like they basically made pois mostly walled off by mountains and cliffs so that you have to deal with the teams in your area before you can push a choke point that a team might be holding because if you did you probably were going to get shot in the back. I also think that they made it so that when you were the one pushing into the choke point you were the one with height and the team holding you had a worse position. I think they did a lot of this to make rotations doable, but slower to cut down on third parties, but when they brought kc back in season 5 they completely restructured the map into the mess that it's in now. Maybe it's just nostalgia and that I think the original kc was a really good map, but yeah the current kc is a mess.

Kings canyon does have a focal point, almost everyone ends up in that valley in the center near containment, hillside, and the river outposts. There may not be a poi there, but you always end up there. Turbine while it is the center of the map, you're more likely to pass through it and sort of meet up with everyone in the "valley" near hammond labs, kind of like the kings canyon valley.

I once made a very large map and it suffered from lack of interaction since points of interest were randomly scattered. This method seems to successfully employ every space of the map as somewhere players will have to meet up eventually. It also makes people start outward and go inward, making even more use of it. The only downside is that if players stay in the edges of the map, there will generally be less interaction. That's why they put the kill circle bit this may not work in games without one.

@Darkgun163Рік тому
Honestly what makes King's Canyon so interesting is that because the map is designed more like a bunch of Arena maps dropped wildly onto the island, where the map's central rotation ends up varies based on where the ring is pulling. A ring ending near Capacitor will often drag players across the SW flatlands leading into the PoI, where an ending in Relic will push the whole game through the river houses east of Bunker.... In fact, most of the central routes involve crossing the river in the center. Heck, a notoriously important position to control first during rotation is the high ground NE of Bunker, since it gives you the ability to pick a fight with or rotate into any nearby PoIs or choke points. Though, as someone who really likes King's Canyon and the endless fight that is the 7th Party fight, The important PoIs can interact with one another a bit too easily. The distance between many of the adjacent PoIs in the SW (where this effect is most observable) is like... 15 seconds before you start using movement Legends? No privacy: your fight, is their fight, is there fight, is their-

Another factor to the pizza design is that its probably better for optimization. With all the large mountains/objects blocking sight lines, the game doesn’t have to render anything beyond that point, leading to better FPS.

Interesting information.
