Abandoned Mall

Lore

You've led your band of misfits into a mall that was left virtually untouched by them. Amazed, shocked, and bewildered by this sheer factor alone, you believe things are too quiet. In response, you've sent your best scout, Keith, to scourer the area. The ideals of despair begins to quell in your mind the moment Keith missed roll call, now the worst outcome must take place in this endeavor; you are not alone.

Layout

Abandoned Mall is a large size mall style map consisting of five zombie spawn locations: The Public Restrooms, The Loading Area, The Main Entrance, The Frozen Storage of ShopRite, and The Elevators.

If the sigils fail to load in or classic mode is set then humans will spawn in the BestBuy.

When exiting out of BestBuy, the first three way pathways occur. Heading left will lead humans to the vent entrance of The Public Restrooms. and the Arbys. Heading right leads to The Elevators, and ShopRite.

If defending Arbys, the layout contains four large breakable glass windows that will instantly lead to the restaurant itself, a kitchen with a workable radio playing stereotypical mall music, and a cold storage with a breakable vent leading to Bar XYZ.

If heading towards ShopRite, the layout will consist of a stereotypical supermarket out look on front but contains a pharmacy with a workable Medcharger. Going to the back contains the office and The Frozen Storage.

Continuing down to the middle will lead humans into the second three way split, heading right will instantly lead humans to the main entry of The Public Restrooms, The loading Area, and the movie theater. Heading left will lead humans to The Main Entrance, Buffalo Wild Wings, and the Security Office. Continuing to go down through the middle will lead humans to their final destination, The Food Court.

If defending at Buffalo, the layout consists of a two floor restaurant with two restrooms next to each other at the corner, and a kitchen with cold storage at the back.

If defending the Security Office, the layout consists of two large breakable windows that will lead to the main room of the office, going in the chef's office will have a large unbreakable window, the Holding area has a large breakable glass window, and the closet has a shovel (Note:The Shovel is now a prop.).

If defending the Movie Theater, the layout consists of a close tight entry with one entrance leading to the Big Screen. Heading up to the seatings will lead to a breakable glass pane to the film room, going to the other side will send humans to the Film Storage room.

Tips

The map is incredibly large and spacious, making it a perfect opportunity to practice sniper rifles and targeting headshots.

All the minor stores along the way have unbreakable glass windows to them, essentially making them only one way entrances for randomly spawned sigils.

(Zombies Only): Although you're at a disadvantage at first due to the spacious layout of the map, this is the perfect opportunity to practice Propkilling. As The Public Restrooms has three paintcans capable of instant killing humans, once wave 2 begins one may play as a Wraith and set up Ambushes by settling near benches and have them ready to propkill unsuspecting humans.

The metal barrier next to the Manager's Office and mini appliance store is breakable, allowing both humans and zombies to cut through Buffalo without having to go around the long way.

Trivia

This map can only be played if zombie server servers crash and restart, or if a admin force changes to the map.

There has been constant updates for the maps as before the Shovel would of been a free tier 2 melee weapon, the water and sodas would of been actual food items; same for all the watermelon,bananas, and oranges found in ShopRite.

Before the update, Abandoned mall had a secret vault room in the Wells Fargo store that would of been able to be open once the dead security guard's card was unfrozen in wave 5 at The Food Court. Allowing the humans have access to 5 gray metal cabinets.
