New Team Fortress 2 Community Maps Revealed
by Nick Breckon, Feb 18, 2009 2:27pm PSTValve has pulled the lid off the community maps shipping with the Team Fortress 2 Scout update.
Created by Joshua 'JoshuaC' Shiflet, Arena_Watchtower is an Arena map "that plays unlike any of Valve's Arena maps, with a heavy focus on vertical space and long, open sight lines," according to Valve's description.
Left, CP_Junction. Right, Arena_Watchtower.
The second map, CP_Junction by Sean 'Heyo' Cutino, is described as a Gravel Pit-style map full of "tight spaces and short sight lines."
The maps will go live next Tuesday, along with the Scout unlockables and other updates.

I've never played Watchtower, but Junction is a league map that is not meant for vanilla pub play. It's also fallen out of favor with the competitives probably because teams rely on spam not skill to win the map. There is no breathing room to dodge explosives on that map. Odd choice on Valve's part.

I wouldn't compare it to gravel pit, that's for sure.
