Modern Warfare II Season 05 – Punta Mar Intel Map

Intel Mode: Dominance

Flags can change quickly on a small map like this, so stay focused on the target and work hard to stabilize and grab both flags. Flags A and C are located near the starting backs, although these points may change throughout the match if the enemy team’s backs flag is captured.

The intersection takes on added importance here as the location of the B flag, so expect intense bouts of combat coming from all sides. Try to hold down the groceries and stores on either side of them to reduce crossfire. When attacking the C flag in the build, head via Shootout to cut off the defenders’ top cover and allow them to get it with an air-to-ground line.

At level A, use the shrine to take cover from rooftops, then set up in a fire or green building to defend it. You’ve probably picked up on a theme here: grab the flag, then run to cover positions around it so you’re not an easy target sitting out in the open.

Intel Mode: Search and Destroy

Although Search and Destroy tends to slow things down, you can still expect plenty of fast-paced rounds here as teams go for an elimination win. With the defenders starting in the backcourt, the attacking team must be ready for customers to appear on the roofs, hoping to use their height advantage to get early takedowns. Consider going past the hotel to meet them there or taking the south path towards the B bomb site behind the blue truck at the intersection.

With Bomb Site A located on the second floor of Fire, it’s a good bet that attackers will often prefer Site B, which isn’t deep into the enemy’s starting point. So the defending team may want to push for B for a strong early defense. Even if the attackers anticipate this, there’s no harm in sending your best snipers to the rooftops, as long as they can fend off early counterattacks.

Intel Mode: Hardpoint

Get ready to explore every corner of the map with a total of eight hardpoints, starting in the center and then moving north to the green building in the back area. From there, head south to the first floor of the Shootout, then northeast to the bottom of the shops, then back west to the hotel lobby. Return to the intersection to reach the sixth solid point in the grocery store; Then fight for control of each of the starting points, starting with the building and ending with the first floor of the fire.

There are a large number of hardpoints to get past, but the small size of the map makes travel quick. By being able to see large portions of the map at once across surfaces, it is possible to eliminate enemies in the path before they reach the objective, as long as you can defend your position.
