The ingenious Malice combines the best traits of an arena-style map and a Datacore-style mini-complex--but with an emphasis on extremo satchel combat. Plus, a refreshing lack of tau, gluon and jump pack
keeps inveterate binders and other sundry whores honest.
Our personal favorite area in Malice is the brilliantly designed lower level. The highlight: A central room with a glass roof, satchels at all four corners, and an ascending ramp leading out of the room
at one end. Unlikely satchel and RPG duels occur with alarming regularity on the ramp, with sliding satchies often followed by cries of "WTF!" and "OMG!"
With the map’s emphasis on effective placement of explosives, the sufficiently clever player can wreak havoc here. Even better: MP5-grenade junkies have to work for their fix, for once--the map’s main
cache of MP5 grenades lies in an utter deathbox of an upstairs room that makes whoring ‘nades an iffy proposition. Brush up on your satchel and RPG skills and put on your nasty face: In any case, it’ll
probably get blown off within seconds in Malice.
