I did try in one game squid jumping on the crates to get up there but you barely reach. Unless there's a way to get up there, Chargers should have a nice time camping at base.
Which level did you like more in the demo?

I loved Saltspray Rig! It had so many alternate paths you could take and LOTS of vertical strips that you could use to climb on top of things. My favorite was when Rollers would come at me in the middle section, and I'd just escape up and over a wall and shoot at them

Two things
1. Inking the area around the spawn circle is not that usful it doesn't give much... It's pretty much a waste of time while you could hurry up and go help your team in the big areas
2. Players get respawned all the time, Because of the fact the paths are so thin when they swim to the big areas they'll just ink their way and that's it one respawn and all of your hard work went for nothing, you better just go help your team
BUT
this area though
Inking this in the other team's side will be usful because players usually do not stop to ink there if they're in a hurry (and players are always in a hurry in this stage)

Probably the warehouse for me. Getting from place to place was relatively easy to do, which was great as a roller.

Walleye Warehouse is about as linear as Urchin Underpass to me. Saltspray rig had opposing sniper roosts/walls in the middle that also offered a means of getting away from people trying to sneak up behind you. I personally loved the layout of Saltspray rig.
I don't agree with this. Here's a video where the guy covers the base and gets 56PTwo things

According to the Point thread this translates to 3.00% at the end of the game (56p/18.65404p = roughly 3.00) which is by no means a waste of time.
Also there are 3 other teammates getting to the center. I can see adjusting the strategy so you ink the base when you respawn if securing turf is that big a priority though.
And I don't understand the second point. The enemy can't effectively ink your base in Rig.

Walleye Warehouse is seriously INTENSE! You either gotta push or BE pushed. I love the pressure of that place.

yeah, with all liner maps, it is and will be a tug of war for sure. they will be more fun when games can be organized and it's not just a clusterf&^k like in turf war :p

Oh I see I see
Yeah you're right, I never looked at that area I was sure it's tiny
The second point is about him saying that it's impossible to reach the enemy's base so I explained why it's not effective anyway and what is effectivce sometimes
Maybe my formulation was messy so you didn't understand... Sorry, not English native here, I'm still learning
Don't worry, I was just a bit confused.
But yes, in Walleye Warehouse the spawn area is much smaller. If we were comparing spawns I would say that one is much less worth it (although I would ink it anyway...)

I definitely enjoyed Saltspray Rig better than Walleye Warehouse because it's easier to spread the salt matches feel more unpredictable. Fights broke out all over the map while in the warehouse it was mostly restricted to the center. Every weapon can do well on Saltspray; rollers for covering the most territory, chargers can take the high ground and lock down areas, and splattershot type weapons are good all-around.

I have to go with Saltspray Rig on this one due to how vertical the map can be, using the crate stack and crane platform in the back area for example. Plus I also felt there was more to learn on that map than Walleye Warehouse, not that i dislike the warehouse.

Saltspray Rig definitely felt superior in my opinion for Turf Wars in comparison to Walleye Warehouse.

Saltspray Rig was just such an amazingly designed map with a lot of interesting elements to control. You've got the narrow walkways in the middle, the square at the bottom, the elevator, and best part is the large area at the top. Trying to control that section got really intense.
Walleye Warehouse just didn't really grab me the same way. It feels very cramped, and it's lacking in flanks.

I preferred the warehouse in all honesty. it was cozier and more compact and made fights feel more tense and controllable than the rig to me. it also put an immense focus on pressure, and I love putting on pressure, as it means I almost always have something to do. I felt like I had to just kind of go through the motions sometimes in the rig, there wasn't always the tense need to pressure feeling. I always had plenty of space, and that made me feel sluggish and a tad less excited.
