FORBIDDING COAST

You have arrived at a savage warfront between land and sea. In the wake of Carl Denham's unveiling which thrust the legendary Skull Island out of the shrouds of myth, discover what horrors will await you at this doorstep to a menagerie of nightmares.


This map was created as a part of NoahJ456's movie themed June 2023 mapping contest based on Peter Jackson's King Kong as well as the tie-in PS2 game. The map features a Nacht / Bus Depot style minimalist and slightly more hardcore experience. This is my first public map release and was also created somewhat as a personal challenge for myself to see if I could actually finish a map I had started. Given my affinity for the world that Peter Jackson and the team at Weta created, I may expand this map in the future to include content that was cut from this release, as well as potentially attempting to capture different locales of Skull Island.

• Hardcore style gameplay with no perks / PaP
  
• Variety of Battlefield 1, Vanguard, & WW2 weapons with heavily edited sounds

Greetings all, I just wanted to quickly give a little update on plans for the map and a small preview of things to come. Yes I am still working on it and am still invested in it, although admittedly I didn't touch it for quite a while. One more major update is planned for this map as I do want to leave it in a good state before I focus my attention on the larger, fully fledged version. This is what you can expect in said update so as to manage expectations:

• Two, possibly three new playable areas
  
• A general overhaul of a lot of the models and textures as well as detailing and layout tweaks
  
• A number of new weapons mostly from BF1, some of which are already complete (MARS Automatic, Ribeyrolles M1918, MG08/15 all from BF1 so far)
  
• Overhaul to a couple of existing weapons
  
• Overhauled easter egg to unlock a number of things in the map, including an actual buyable ending
  
• A couple more misc EEs / things originally cut during the contest

Here's a preview of a portion of one the new areas for those who may not have seen it already:

Thank you again for the feedback and patience while I continue to work on the map, it is immensely appreciated.
