Noobs, they are all the same person.

Current source beach maps that I know of:

dod_omaha_v1 (released)
dod_omaha_v2 (released)
dod_charlie (a remake)
dod_dogsector (basically finished, but it had some optimization problems due to its sheer size)
dod_strand (still being finished)
dod_sword_b? (release, still in beta)

There is one more but I cant remember it, but it is similar in design to strand.

dod_pacific_b1 looks like a beach map to me. :)

dod_opo_liberer this is a beach map, but the fps on it is horrid. :)

dod_foxgreen is going to be the best beach map ever!!! GO WALDO!!!! The attention to historicall accuracy is what this map is built on.

Sounds nice.

I must admit I haven't played any beach maps for a while, not by choice, maybe the servers aren't rotating them?

All the beach maps are in the fps dungeon. Mix one large open area with a mass of water and add in 16-20 players in view at all times and the resulting pie is a mess. Beach maps have never been overly popular with the masses of players to begin with (it's a niche map) and although I've looked in the official DoD bible, I fail to find the parable that states DoD must contain a beach map.

Somewhere between "Thou shalt not exploit in thine ville of Argentan" and "Every wise mapper buildeth his house: but the newblish plucketh it down with his leaks."

But it's tradition as far back as I can remember (3.1b :rolleyes: ) ! And of course the movie DOD was based on(ish) started with such a map. level. environment. whatever.

i'm a big fan of beach maps because they force teamplay and communication. in pre-source times i have always been playing at a 24/7 charlie server and since the first screenshots of dod_dogsector appeared i'm waiting for its release.

The problem is that I'm in grad school. Also, I'm waiting for the dang update to come out. My Hammer is sort of on the fritz after that other update a few weeks back and it makes getting any work done on my map (dod_strand) terribly frustrating. I haven't forgotten though.
