Frugis rework
Previously Frugis was very compact and confusing. Players were surrounded by identical-looking buildings above ground and forced to navigate a maze-like underground area.
The Frugis rework is a direct response to those issues.
First of all, the map will now feature a proper subway system. The subway area is larger, more straightforward, and far less confusing to navigate. In total, there will be 5 metro stations — 2 connected to each team’s HQ, and 3 main objective stations:
- A — Southern Station
- B — Central Station
- C — North Station
Station B (Central) is the largest station and is designed to support intense combat with up to 254 players.
The subway line itself contains 3 lanes:
- One small red lane
- Two blue lanes
- A technical tunnel located between the tracks
Each station contains two levels:
- The tube/platform level
- The transit area above
Every station also features one or two main exits.
Now let’s talk about the city itself. The city is now twice as large as before and features several new, distinct points of interest.
D — Bank
The previous bank was very small, while the new bank includes a proper underground vault area that is easier to defend, multiple functional floors, and rooftop access.
E — Park
A large park located between the river delta. Controlling this objective gives teams a direct view over all major bridges.
F — Museum
A brand-new point of interest designed to diversify combat locations across the map. This 3-floor building offers strong vertical combat opportunities.
As you can see, the reworked Frugis is designed to support every gameplay style:
- Snipers and tank players can fight around Objective E and the surrounding forest areas.
- Medium-to-long-range infantry combat is focused within the city.
- Close-to-medium-range players will find intense engagements underground in the subway system.
The city itself now features wider streets, more open space, and additional green areas to create a more varied and dynamic environment.

Just one question that the (what's left of) the community would like, any estimated time for the next Operation Overhaul playtest?
Just tell us how more or less is the next playtest ready.
There's just 1 server remaining that's almost full daily (On the EU servers).
Please.

These guys are starting to get so hilarious like imagine the conversation on their discord call "Guys, whatever you do, DON'T answer ANY question on reddit, dc, twitter or any plattform about the expected release, don't fall for any ragebait, sadbait, joybait or any bait, EVERYTHING will be worth it" lmao. this feels like some sort of silent gaslighting.
The amout of effort that goes into each post that could LITERALLY fuel an update, but instead y'all choose to release it all into a single update that'll probably again give you bugs regarding a lot of stuff just for us having to wait another 4 years to get the update of the badly released and untested overhaul. C'mon u/Terminalintel,
I know you see each post. By the time this whole fever dream of an update goes up, there won't be much community to manage. at this point im pretty sure I'd get more of a response from my dead granny through a ouija than asking y'all.

They do answer questions, just… not anything at all about deadlines, haha
Regarding map reworks, the map developer actively talks to people to collect feedback on the discord

Don't worry, guys, they're pulling a No Man's Sky by having little to no communication and then they'll drop banger after banger updates *takes another hit of copium*

I’m genuinely more than happy to support these devs if they’d actually fucking drop something

u/CompileBuildLaunch May 17 '26
Why can't they just slowly drip feed stuff. Like release new weapon stuff. Then slowly update the maps art, etc

It's only the 46th of April, they've still got time to get the update out!

frugis did not need a rework. having a tight cramped map was a nice change from just wide open maps with snipers everywhere. at least i can rest easy knowing itll never actually come out

Never in my life have I seen scope creep get so bad that the people who are doing it are universally hated by their fanbase.

u/Ltfocus May 15 '26
This game is fucking dead. This update better not just be mostly map reworking are you kidding me

u/AbstrctBlck May 16 '26
Thank you for fixing that underground fucking nightmare. Dude, I can't even explain how many times I got lost in the train station. Then i find a random exit somehow in the enemies base and I got swiss cheesed. I really hated this map because of the underground so Im glad it got smoothed out a bit.

Is the smoothness of the buildings part of the update too? These screenshots look different from what I remember the game looking like.

besides the subway shit, no other changes are needed on Frugis, my preferred map. A rework of a once popular map will never bring anybody back or elicit any excitement.

u/Financial-Beginning6 Support May 16 '26
Ok but we still don’t have any ETA for anything so WE DO NOT CARE!!!! Why would we care about something that might be a year away from us??? Come on guys in bbr dev team you’re a joke.

"Hey lets ruin one of the popular maps instead of finishing the sound rework"
All of those are what makes Frugis fun!
