Badlands is a remake of the Classic CTF Badlands from Team Fortress Classic, and was released in the February 14, 2008 Patch. Much of the map has been changed and the map type has been changed from Capture the Flag to Control Point. The map consists of a base for each team, an open second point for each team located on the top of a hill, and a center point on the bridge.

The badlands, formerly and commonly referred to as the mesa biome, are uncommon warm biomes, featuring mounds of terracotta, coming in various colors. There are three different variants of the badlands biome. Badlands biomes feature large mounds of terracotta, in layers of various colors; specifically, red, orange, yellow, white, light gray, brown, and regular terracotta may all naturally generate. These mounds rise up from a layer of red sand, and are about 10-15 blocks thick, giving way to typical stone variants below that. Cactus and dead bushes generate frequently across the landscape, similarly to deserts. Badlands biomes generate in warm regions and in areas with low erosion, which means that they usually generate in areas with plateaus and sometimes even mountain peaks. Mineshafts generate at much higher elevations in these biomes, often exposed to fresh air. Their supporting planks and fences are made of dark oak rather than oak. Additionally, gold ore generates up to elevation Y=255 (rather than the normal Y=32), and at much higher rates than the rest of the world, making badlands tunnels excellent sources of gold. While all badlands biomes are rich in unique building materials and gold ore, there are no passive mobs. Furthermore, trees, grass, and water are uncommon, so food cultivation can be difficult. Trees and grass appear only atop wooded badlands. Being a dry biome, it never rains, meaning lightning strikes are impossible. The exceptions are the rivers that cut through the badlands, where it can still rain and cast lightning. The usual darkening of the sky and hostile mob spawning that accompany thunderstorms still occurs during inclement weather.

Two of the biggest factors that allows badlands to form (as there are many areas in the world with similar sedimentary conditions that don't form badlands) is the combination of the region's rainfall patterns and the fertility of the rock/soil. Firstly, the fertility is a big issue. Sedimentary soils/stone can be a wildly diverse in its fertility, but generally, freshwater sediments laid down by rivers tend to be nutrient rich while anything related to shallow ocean formations tends to be stripped of any soluble minerals and is just the inert crystalline component of rock (like growing in crushed glass). A lot of these badlands also have the addition of clay particles, which, when blended with already nutrient poor larger material, forms a soil that is extremely difficult for plants to take root in in the first place. Plants in clay soils or infertile, nutrient-poor material tend to grow slowly, have shallow and frail roots that don't generally hold soil together well or grow fast enough to stabilise damaged ground. The other component is obviously rainfall. While low average rainfall tends to be important to badlands formation, its the pattern this rain is delivered in that is most important. If the rain falls fairly evenly though the year (like the drizzly greyness of much of the UK), then runnoff is not much of an issue and plants can take advantage of the rain. If the rain falls in cycles of drought and flood (like in Australia), the usual rainfall is too low for plants to grow and when it does fall, it falls in such a deluge that it almost all becomes runoff. If the terrain slope is such that the runoff reaches a critical flow speed, it begins to incise the terrain with erosion gullies. The rain will often wash away seeds that could help to stabilise the exposed ground and the water is gone before much has soaked into the ground and the cycle repeats. If these two factors come together, you end up with an area that is almost impossible to stabilise and will enters a positive feedback loop where its existence creates the conditions that further drive its existence, that is, until the point that it has been eroded flat and the runoff mechanism ceases.

wow, this is amazing, can’t believe they named it after badlands chugs, what a legend

What surprised me about this is how the badlands look less intimidating to me than the unbelievably flat plains beyond. I've lived my entire life surrounded by wooded hills and the Appalachian Mountains, having been outside of this biome only a handful of times, to Florida or California. So the somewhat mountainous feel of the badlands comes across as less frightening than the infinite flatness of the plains.

I first visited the Bad Lands in 1977. I had graduated from high school and drove out to Wyoming and Colorado to go rock climbing and visit some national parks like Yellowstone. We started our trip from Massachusetts. I had never even heard of the Band Lands. We sort of stumbled upon them. We spent a couple of days hiking around the park. It was a magical time I’m my life and so was the park. I have been back a few more times. It’s a beautiful place. A must visit. Thanks for such a wonderful video which explains so much. Take care

Broad regional uplift is an important addition to the reasons for the net erosion of the Badlands. The depositional plain to the east of the Rockies, mentioned in the video, was uplifted. This has the effect of eliminating deposition and rejuvenating the erosive power of streams.
