Warhawk update v1.2 is said to be coming in December. Here’s what’s said to be in the new update:
Operation Omega Dawn gets its name from the single new map that it brings to the table: The Omega Factory. The Eucadians and the Chermovans are fighting over a high-tech rig called the Omega Factory which houses some very sweet goodies. Your duty is to pick your side and secure the area.
Set in a night battle which makes the area even more treacherous, players will find themselves trying to outgun and outfox the opposite team in order to gain control of the map’s crown jewel: the KT-424 Combat Dropship. Like the name suggests, one pilot, six soldiers and a ground vehicle can fit all at once in this baby. Use it wisely to gain an edge over the opposition.
And if you think that the Combat Dropship is a sitting duck with only transport purposes in store, you might have to learn the hard way that it hosts a MBEC-3 Heavy Support Cannon. The MBEC-3 packs some serious sting, so beware of it. Here’s a more info from the press release:
* Omega Factory battlefield includes 5 new map layouts featuring advanced building complexes and huge industrial towers.
* The 5 large layouts from the original battlefields have been modified to include the KT-424 Combat Dropship.
* All this in one single download from PlayStation Network this December
We’ll give you an update when this PlayStation Network DLC has an exact date of release announced. Until then, keep it here with us.

Exciting huh?!
Unfortunatly, the patch won’t be out until mid December time. Well, at least that gives them time to test and add new features!
I bet you’re all wondering what those new layouts are! They’re not exactly ‘new’, you’ll notice that. Basically they’re smaller versions of the current layouts.
Here’s what Dylan Jobe said about them:
We have found that while a lot of players like playing the really large games, there was a pretty big segment that was playing smaller games. With that trend, we wanted to rig some new layouts that are more geared for smaller games; 4 to 8 players. The new layouts are:
- Eucadia: High City
- Island Outpost: Standoff
- The Badlands: South City
- Destroyed Capitol: Garden Showdown
- Archipelago: Close Corridors
And withthat said, here are a few sneak peaks of the 5 levels:
Dylan also mentioned something about a “Booster pack” bought over the new Warhawk store coming up… I wonder what this could be?
“And of course I can’t end this post without mentioning the Booster Pack. So there, I said it…”Booster Pack” “
I’m looking forward to it.
