Battlefield 3 Premium eGuide Battlefields Team Deathmatch

Azadi Palace

Like Scavenger and Gun Master, Team Deathmatch takes place entirely at Azadi Palace, and the locale always leads to some truly chaotic gun battles as both teams fight for dominance. The presence of a massive two-story structure often drives most players indoors. As a result, the interior gets crowded very fast, with bullets whizzing through corridors and grenades detonating all over the place. This is particularly true on the ground floor, where constant movement is necessary if you wish to stay alive longer than a few seconds. Coordinated teams have a better chance of making a stand on the second floor, where the rooms and corridors are larger and much easier to defend. The Senate room, on the north side, is one of the most popular defensive positions. With only three access points consisting of two staircases and one doorway, a handful of teammates can lock down this room with little trouble, and ambush opponents as they wander within sight. If you prefer to avoid the chaos inside the Palace, the rubble along the structure’s perimeter offers decent cover and concealment. Consider posting up on the Palace’s east side and engaging opponents racing about the exposed second floor, near the restaurant. But don’t stay in one spot for more than a few seconds unless you want to donate your dog tags to a knife-wielding foe.
