1) Coagulation will ultimately not resemble the concept art except in general atmosphere. Those arches you see? Not present. Another omission from the map is the water. I was specifically told there'd be no water on the map at all, despite concept art. Does this mean the cave pond has changed, or was that just overlooked, I don't know, but it's quite clear that puddle in the middle of Coagulation will not be making a return. Please, contain your indifference. | 1) Coagulation will ultimately not resemble the concept art except in general atmosphere. Those arches you see? Not present.

2) I specifically asked about the choices regarding what maps are being remastered. So far, Coagulation and Ascension have been announced, and others will be announced at Comic-Con, and another in Germany, possible Speil!. I was specifically told that the maps were chosen to have a variety of sizes, but are mostly those which were super popular. Purely speculating here, but with a large map like Coagulation and a medium map like Ascension, I think we can expect to see Lockout (medium), Zanzibar (large), Midship (small), and Ivory Tower (small) remastered, due to Frank O'Conner's comments on NeoGaf, and | 2) I specifically asked about the choices regarding what maps are being remastered.

3) When asked about the fan-favourite Tower of Power, I was told that all the settings to recreate that game type are found in the game. No confirmation as to whether or not it will be made into an official game type or matchmaking playlist. Let's cross our fingers, because that would be the best playlist ever, am I right? | 3) When asked about the fan-favourite Tower of Power, I was told that all the settings to recreate that game type are found in the game.
