what we know so far?

-It shouldn't be MLG only, so we should get to play on this Map even on Live Servers some time soon
-No ETA Yet
-48vs48, with outfit leaderboards, probably won't be open to nonoutfits? we don't know yet
-You can spawn everything at the Warpgate, from vanguards to Galaxies, but you cannot spawn everything at the outposts.
-There are a lot of Outposts to cap and they will be connected by Lattice, less connections than on Indar
-You can place sunderers in many tricky places
-Fracture max is OP and the black camo is a must have
-No idea about the goal, if to hold the middle lanes or to push the enemy warpgate

[Q(F)M]

e-sport anyone?

non solo e-sport :)

"You're right. These battle islands are first and foremost being created to help us fill out our map and facilitate continental conquest, they will also be leveraged for competitive gameplay modes when we do those. In our initial competition foray we are looking at 48v48 but this is an 11 outpost map and will support a lot more players (probably 250ish) when played in the game proper."
