BO2 Meltdown

Gear up and get ready to deploy to the Balochistan Cliffs — we’re heading to Meltdown.

Meltdown is a medium sized industrial map with a mostly symmetrical layout in the classic three-lane design. The initial spawns are located to the west and the east side of the map, with each team gaining quick access to a two-story control building or straight through to the bottom or middle lane.

A ramp structure on either side of the middle lane leads up to a middle hill, with a ground floor underpass for quick access to the other side. The hill features a vertical pathway for an escape to the top or bottom lane when things get too hectic, but tight spaces in both directions encourage sudden, close-quarters engagements. Second story windows in the control buildings offer snipers a view of this hill.

The bottom lane funnels players into a cooling tower with three entryways leading into a center circle filled with posts that obscure vision and blocks gunfire . There are no sightlines from the outside map into this cooling tower section; so here, all the action is focused inside. The side routes lead to ground level, while the north entryway connects to the middle hill.

Opposite the cooling tower, the top lane waterfront weaves around a central turbine structure flanked by two small platforms. A short stairway in the middle leads down to the middle lane, with two small side rooms on the way to hill. The rooms each house a large tank that blocks your view to the opposite wall where a window overlooks the initial spawn areas.

Multiple shortcuts throughout offer various ways to quickly cut across lanes, keeping the action fluid and spontaneous throughout the match.
