Matador heißt die Karte, die das POE Team im letzten Newsupdate vorstellt.
Die im nächsten POE release enthaltene Karte ist auf einen massiven Panzerkrieg ausgelegt, beiden Seiten werden je 20 Fahrzeuge zur Verfügung stehen.
Matador ist die erste "joint map" auf der US Streitkräfte zusammen mit ihren deutschen verbündeten gegen die Ukraine kämpfen.

Today we are highlighting one of the new maps in our upcoming release, Matador. Matador is a massive armor battle that takes place in a overcast valley. Set in day 2, the US comes to reinforce their German Allies in what is our first joint map against Ukraine. Each side will get 20 pieces of armor to battle it out over this war torn map.

Matador is a map by Greasy Mullet but as with most of our maps, it is a team effort by the entire mapping department at PoE2 as well as the static modeling by Jilted, Michi.be and Illicitfilms. Greasy Mullet drew up the map concept and talked through the map design with the other mappers until the team hammered out the overall design then created the flags and detailed statics around the map. SgtWedge made the basic heightmap and textures to give the map its look and feel along with helping design the Allies main base , and Ga-Knomboe Boy took Wedges textures and then detailed them in with all of the craters, trenches, wrecks, and etc. While most of our maps go through a similar process, it is always a team effort at PoE2 and we hope this gives a little insight into our process.

We would like to highlight one of the tournaments that has decided to use POE in its current campaign. ´Fight for the Future´ POE2 tournament is a organized BF2 Tournament designed to give players a new experience of organized teamplay without the typical BF2 pubbing. FFTF is based off a military command structure with a General who leads both sides of the armies.
