One other thing to note is that there have been some minor, and some substantial changes to the freeplay maps, including a surprise that I'm not going to spoil

One of the biggest changes are the off map entry points for all of the units. With the addition of the 2nd fire station, these were all changed and redone to have a better spread of resources across the map. Specifically ALS Units, Extrication equipped units, SWAT/FBI and Brush units were all carefully plotted to give the best response time to necessary areas. Many of these placements have also been done with regard to future changes to the map that will come in 1.8 as well.

* Entry Point A / PD 3 - NW Corner of map
LAFD BC
LAFD USAR
LACoFD Squad
USFS Utility Truck

Unmarked Crown Vic
Rescue Truck 1
Rescue Truck 2
Heavy Rescue
Armored SWAT

This allows for an ALS unit and extrication units to respond along the north end of the map without being blocked by trains. It also gives you SWAT units for the western half of the map.

* Entry Point B
Coroner
Mass Casualty Unit
Red Cross
LAFD EMS Capt.

LAFD Brush Patrol
USFS Type III Engine
LAFD EMS

This gives you Brush units with a quick response to the forest around the hospital and up that side of the map. This becomes especially useful since additional Fire Engines now come from the East side of the map with a great delay to this area, but a quick response to the wooded home in the North East sector.

* Entry Point C
LAFD Ambulances

LAFD Engine 1 & 2
LAFD Foam Tender
LAFD Aerial Ladder Truck

This is the primary entry point for the Ambulances, Engines, Foam Tender and Ladder truck. This gives you all of the additional help you might require for the smaller FS2 in that area, including a Light Force and extra ambulances.

* Entry Point D / PD2
LAFD Hazmat
LAFD Motorboat
LAX CRASH ARFF

LASD, CHP, LAWA, and LAPP
National Guard
FBI

This entry point gives you specialized fire units needed in the port area. It also serves as the main entry point for all non-LAPD Law Enforcement units. This allows for a quick response of FBI for the hostage and other specialized situations in the East part of the map.

* Entry Point A / PD3

LAFD Ambulances

Unmarked Crown Victoria
Rescue Truck 1
Rescue Truck 2
Heavy Rescue
Armored SWAT

This entry point is for SWAT units and all LAFD Rescue Ambulances.

* Entry Point B / PD2

Coroner
Mass Casualty Unit
SAR dog

LAFD BC
LAFD USAR
LAFD Motorboat
LAFD Brush Patrol

LACoFD Squad

USFS Engine
USFS Truck

LASD, CHP, LAWA, LAPP, Nat Guard, FBI

This entry point allows for the Motorboat to reach its drop point quickly, SAR dogs to reach 2 of the missing person areas quickly, gives you extrication and ALS units in that map with the USAR and Squad, as well as Brush units for the large park and wooded areas in that part of the map. Also it serves as the entry point for all non-LAPD units.

* Entry Point C
LAFD EMS Capt.
Red Cross

LAFD Engine 1 and 2
LAFD Foam Tender
LAFD Aerial Ladder Truck
LAFD Hazmat

This is the main fire apparatus entry point with Engines, Foam Tender, Truck and HAZMAT responding from here. Also you have the EMS Captain and Red Cross for accidents and mass casualty incidents.

As you can see, this spreads out everyone as best as possible within the games limitations. Hopefully this cheat sheet will help everyone get used to the new map configuration.
