Inpainkiller ( www.inpainkiller.de ) has published a rare PCF interview with its CEO, Adrian Chmielarz.

Adrian Chmielarz:
Yes, we are still tweaking on it (PKTV) and it is being tested by several side teams through Dreamcatcher. I would say we are 80% done. It was much harder than we anticipated, actually – easily the hardest thing we ever did for the multiplayer.

You can find the interview, here.

That’s it haha. I’ve been working on art, but I’m not going to include art in a public release until the map is done. So for now, you get the ugly version . I have no plans to change any gameplay elements on the map at this point. This is finalized gameplay unless something huge comes up, which I do not forsee. Hope you like it!

If anyone wants to post in support of the map being used on the World Tour, please email CPL|Justin at justin.blanchard@thecpl.com
