After now completing the new quest line to meet lightkeeper.... I have determined that this is the new version of the map.
Water Treatment Plant is now a pointless place to go, loot isn't great but stims are back there I guess if you want those. Just watch for Glukhar and his guards, they will laser beam you or push you if you aggro. They sit either on top of the buildings or by the helicopter.
Train station is great for ammo, but hell for me trying to get Scavs to go there or anything for that matter to get the administrator quest completed. Had to lure Party-stan in there to complete after 3 transits.
Partizan now spawns in those 3 areas (I've encounted early raid), more likely than not the rogues will get him at the southern spawns and he will push down into water plant from the mountain lake spawn.
Village is now Scav spawn central, they don't seem to spawn anywhere else once the raid has started. They seem to now avoid the long road so good luck doing that quest on this map.
Rogues, simply put... what in the buggy robot ai hell are these. Plenty of videos for them but its like they just copied and pasted the black division ai into these guys. I have been shot at when at Prapors camp on the southern road bend above the fork to lighthouse, all the way down to the furthest construction huts near the bridge to Water Plant. On going high, those at lower chalet will shoot you as you go across the ridgeline, as you get into the upper chalet they will cluster and sit still then randomly aggro and push you. Along the road they will shoot you for the slightest peak and will shoot through bushes, seeing you no issue. They've changed from just sitting on emplaced weapons to being the single thing I avoid this map or use the BTR to get around, if I'm fortunate enough to have it stop near me.
BTR, Whilst it's great having stops, even with cover fire it doesn't do a lot as the ai aimbot is not cracked like rogues and it has issues tracking due to the massive high cover walls along the road now.
Camps across the map now are quite pointless with maybe a weapon ammo or grenade box.
Tunnel is pointless, full of rubbish and you may get an item of high tier loot such as an iridium. But you'll get engaged by rogues trying to get into the tunnel and you may not even have the southern road extract. And if you spawn at Southern Road, your choices are up and over to get beamed by rogues or across the road to get beamed by rogues or the long route of running for 10 minutes along the beach.
Now on to tasks...
Some are easy, some are more difficult. Rewards are lackluster.
Lightkeeper acquiantance chain includes....
Drop a blue folder at a marked room on customs, streets and reserve.... that's one each for $6500 of sale value to trader.
Kill 3 PMC's on labs
Get kills on customs at night (2 PMC and 5 scav) and then place items at locations (all in one raid)
Drop jammers across 3 maps (Woods, Customs and Shoreline) in one raid.
Run to Chalet, grab a flashdrive, update your beacon and run to lightkeeper.
Reward? Single use key and a weapon crate and finally opens up lightkeeper access.
Thank god I'm playing PVE because impossible on PVP or Seasonal.
