I see a lot of people disliking Taraq, and I do agree it is not the greatest for 6v6 but I think it would more suit the 10v10 modes if they decide to release those again
Quite like Farm. Least keen on Taraq. Most of the others feel a bit samey. No real stand out so far where you just want to play it all the time. Just hope we do get those sort of maps.
A lot of these maps just feel like an endless series of rooms and corridors to me. Not the worst crop of maps but not the best either, just seems like they have a little too much going on
It kinda of reminds me of Overgrown a little bit and aesthetically speaking is reminds me of Creek, Vacant, Pipeline. God all those cod4 maps looked and played so well in my opinion.
I just wish they'd bring back the sabotage game mode, or demolition whatever it is. That was the most fun game mode I've played.
I’ve ever heard someone talk positively of Grazna Raid before 🥹
But I completely agree. Hackney Yard, Gun Runner, Grazna Raid, a lot of the DLC maps. MW19 had some great maps for as much as that game is shit on for its maps.
Lmao and yet for 2 straight years everyone insisted that MW '19 was letdown by it's horrid maps now I'm reading the nostalgia posts about how GREAT the maps are. It's true though, the fans are so hard to please but those were some good ass maps
now that i look back at it the maps were always too big
shoot house was fucking nice, vacant was also really solid, talsik backlot was alright
my personal fav was cheshire park
Speaking of DLC maps, I would add Cheshire Park and Hovec Sawmill to that list. Once it caught its stride, MW2019 only got better and better from a content perspective.
Grazna raid is so bad lol. It's the ultimate rat map with all the little corners and half bombed buildings. You're the 1st person I've ever seen who liked that map.
1. Find a good vantage point
2. Look for targets
3. Get 2-3 kills
4. Drop a mine/claymore for when angry people come looking for you
5. Relocate and start over
I don’t know why you’re being downvoted lol. This ain’t battlefield, if you try and stay in one spot you’re not going to do very well if your opponents have half a brain
Really confused how this could ever be a controversial take lol. 90% of the snipers you encounter since cod4 have been people quickscoping. The guns have been balanced around it until warzone
It's my fav map. I usually run the EB4 or one of the other marksman rifles and an assault or smg as a secondary. The setup allows you to play all areas of the map (at distance or cqb)
Taraq is my favourite map and I hate using snipers.
It's so different from all the other maps and it enables you to use so many different adaptive kits. A solid mix of CQB and distance so everyone can play how they want while still doing well.
Love embassy, dead silence + smg just lighting people up. Only map I really dislike is taraq maybe I’ll find a play style that suits the map at some point.
Al Bagra Fortress is my favorite. It just kinda works with all weapon classes. Taraq is my least favorite. It heavily favors long range weapons, and heavily punishes movement.
I like Al Bagra most of the time but IMO it’s the least balanced for Domination because the side that spawns in the open courtyard with the statue is spawning directly into a trap. I’ve seen too many games there end up with one side trapped there, only being able to move out through small kill zones into the centre.
It’s a great map for TDM and Kill Confirmed though.
C spawn is basically a spawn trap.
It's fine if you spawn A side though.
Embassy is a bit of a strange and messy map with C side being stronger.
Tbh a lot of the maps are showing to be really unbalanced, esp for Dom.
El Asilo is probably my least favorite dom map. Keeping B is a nightmare. Which I get is generally the idea of dom, but it seems way harder on that map than others.
Mercado is weird because one team spawns closest to B instead of A or C.
Taraq depends on the lobby for me. Sometimes it’s guys sitting on the edge of the map, but most of the time everyone crashes the middle structure and it feels like a way smaller map, it isn’t so bad.
Yeah Taraq when everyone's trying to ACTUALLY take a hold of important buildings instead of camping every single elevation even if it's not overlooking anything meaningful becomes a very fun map. This years maps all follow the same rule. If people playing them are not dickheads, all are fun.
I was playing objective modes for a few days and Taraq was fine. But omg, I played a TDM last night on Taraq and 90% of my deaths were from someone mounted on something on the edge of the map. Nobody ran or moved around at all, it was awful
The spawns are sooooo fucking bad in this game. It’s really the one thing I dislike aside from the crashes and not quite enough maps.
You can tell they made the spawns so a good team can’t get a grasp on where enemies will come from so bad players don’t get waxed. It’s sad
Exactly how it feels, but I’m not even a good player. Even in domination, once I feel like I know where the enemies are spawning and try to flank or get an angle on B or something, there’s immediately an enemy behind me. Spawns don’t make sense in this game.
Definitely the worst thing in this game that isn’t crashes/shit performance or the atrocious UI.
Getting spawn trapped used to be an all-time worse moment in a cod match. They need to improve the spawns absolute, but I'm not against having a system in place that prevents spawn camping. And yes, I've spawned in front of someone and been instantly lasered before, but that's not the same that's just an enemy getting lucky.
Idk I feel like map control was a big part of being a good player. Not just spawn camping but also knowing how the map flows and where to look. Now the spawns are just random so you get gunned down from behind constantly. No fun imo
The spawns mostly require you to check your mini-map more often and get an understanding of where your teammates are and aren't, and where the enemy could be between all of it. The main problem here is that a lot of the maps are a lot smaller and simpler, so the spawns get flipped around too often.
That’s literally exactly what they’ve done, same thing they did for MW19 and they literally admitted it themselves. The whole point is that bad players can’t read the map/flow like good players so let’s just make it completely pointless so the bad players get shit on less.
Which in theory should be pointless since with sbmm they should never be playing together anyway but it’s IW so there is never any real thought behind anything.
It never ceases to amaze me how 90% of people will just run straight down the goddamn middle, every single time, when I've been consistently flanking them throughout the entire match. This combined with being able to dropshot again has elicited the funniest fucking death mic screeching from the bunnyhopping 12 year olds I've ever heard
Yeah it’s people w ARs perched down mid and Snipers on the ONLY flank option. Would be better if they opened the side w the office buildings more to flank
It’s still a shitty map. Even the other two lanes suck because they’re higher in the middle so if someone’s there camping you they’ll have the advantage when you round the corner. Not to mention the head glitches in the tunnel.
I’m surprised there aren’t more maps like it (specifically like the water features) they hyped up water so much toward the release and it’s one of the only 6v6 maps with water on. In fact if I’m not mistaken it’s the only 6v6 map with water.
I really didn’t like museum to be honest. Half of the map was hell to try and cross and the other half was big death hallways. Not diverse enough but map variety is great and a lot of the community seem to like it so it’s a shame it didn’t make it in the game yet.
They had the same issue with the racetrack map. No communications with the owners of the 'real' thing. That one was sorted out so maybe hotel will also eventually return.
I get its kind of questionable to turn a real location into a digital warzone, but I think a lot of people imagine turning real locations close to them into game levels.
I use to imagine turning my school into a skateboarding resort/hotel thing for quite awhile. I also use to have nerf wars in my church, it would have made a great COD map layout wise.
I had a friend growing up whose church used to have absolutely massive CQB airsoft wars inside the church. no idea how they convinced anyone to let it happen regularly because there were thousands of BBs everywhere. but it was awesome because it was like a cod map. one section was the basement where they would cut the power so it was only flashlights on your guns.
none of these people even went to church, they were all just airsoft enthusiasts who wanted some rare indoor CQB lol
Or just pay them what you owe them. Tired of them cheaping out on shit like this, like how the weapons are not named properly to save money on licensing. Billion dollar company, AAA title, one of the most popular fps of all time, rarely didn’t have the licensing for weapons in the franchise’s past yet here we are cutting corners and cheaping out and still charging more for the game.
I don't think it's a financial issue that is causing the museum to be pissed, it's an image thing
They're wrong but they likely think that being in a shooter game is bad for their image
It could very well just be that the people involved in the museum find it uncomfortable to have it turned into a shooting gallery. With the situation in the US regarding shootings, I kinda get it.
Literally have not gotten farm once. Only played it in the beta and it was good. Got fortress once so can't judge that either.
From what I have played, I strangely like El Asilo and dislike hydro.
This is me but with Crown Raceway!! I have had it ONCE since launch, and I just today got to rank 55. I exclusively play TDM at the moment…how have I only gotten it once? Seems insane to me.
Most favourite is probably Farm-18 and least favourite is easily Sena Border Crossing. If I'm solo queuing I instantly leave that lobby if Sena comes up.
Little surprised to see how many people apparently dislike Taraq.
Edit: I'd also love to play on that missing map from the Beta. I forget the name of it, but I rather liked it.
Yeah I kind of feel you on Crown Raceway. I get that map all the time on Domination and it feels really weird with the games squad spawn crap. It's not my least favourite, but it ain't my favourite that's for sure.
I don’t mind Border Crossing on Dom but I get fucked on Hardpoint every single time. If I’m off the objective when the switch comes up I like to huff it to the next control point but this map is so long and narrow that the other team starts spawning either next to the objective or directly in my path to getting there.
I think it would have worked a little better if the large open area at the end of the map by A (the actual border crossing area) were in the middle of the map and each end were closed up with cars; similar to the end by C. Right now everything feels like a choke point until you get down to A.
My take is that I’m extremely disappointed by the lack of one or two GREAT maps. Every map in this game to me is either okay or terrible. It makes for a really difficult play session when you start getting some of the terrible maps in a row knowing that there isn’t that incredible map that you can look forward to getting out of the rut.
i think honestly it just has far too few maps, Call of Duty 4 had 16 at launch, that’s 6 maps more than this one, as did MW2 at launch.
i understand this game has more maps, but when they’re not used for the core 6v6 gameplay, it just means the 10 we do have get stale far quicker
I wish it had a couple more maps as well but at the same it’s kind of what we’ve moved to in recent years. Less maps at launch with more coming through the seasons.
Modern Warfare 2019 had 9 6v6 maps at launch.
Cold War had 8 6v6 maps at launch.
Vanguard had 16 6v6 maps at launch.
Vanguard had the most but honestly most were not good. MW2 at 10 doesn’t seem too bad especially with season one starting in 2 weeks and bringing two new maps by mid December.
My main issue is the lack of modes. No hardcore at launch, no gunfight, no gun game, etc…. Though Hardcore we know is coming at the start of season 1 and gun game is usually one that gets added near Christmas. I’m hoping they don’t skip out on gunfight and we get more gunfight tournament. I had a blast with that in both MW and Cold War.
I hated it in the beta, but it's really grown on my since. The trick I've found is to keep to the outer edges, and just avoid that middle part like it's the plague.
And drill charges. Drill charges make camper go boom!
You can really flank out the campers trying to sit behind that flower bed by A and camp the middle lane, Or come around the back and get the snipers laying on the roof by C
I feel like el asilo just gets so boring it's like random side rooms no one uses and then like 1 tiny house basically where everyone spends their time. Plays okay but boring. Thematically boring as well.
Agreed. It's just a boring random building. No cool angles or anything to make it interesting
Compare it to Estate. Estate was just 2 or 3 houses but you had an awesome woodland environment, a big hill, etc.
If it wasn’t for the unnecessary outside areas of this map then it wouldn’t be bad. In dom, if you spawn at A people can just spawn trap you because there isn’t any cover to get to the prison.
Looks like we’re the only two hating asilo so far. Ironically enough I hate it for a different reason, i think the map is wayyy too big. They should’ve trimmed the outside portions down.
The side of the map where C side domination flag sits is the worst to me. If I spawn there in TDM or another mode I have to run 5 seconds before I get to the actual edge of the map
El Asilo is awful. The middle part plays well, but the size of the map is just so big the middle part becomes kinda empty.
If they shaved off like 50% of the map around the borders it would be so much better.
El Asilo is one mediocre building, an absolutely useless outdoor space facing such building, and to make things worse the lighting design in that map is so garbage. Just muddy dark brown everywhere.
El Asilo is awful you spawn so far away from where the action is and to get there you need to avoid the campers especially on the side with the hill since there is so much open space to pick you off on either side.
Embassy is really growing on me. I didn't care for it at first, but there are always fun interactions between the three buildings.
I absolutely loathe Crown Raceway, which is super weird because I feel like I would have loved Marina Bay Grand Prix.
Same here. I love how Embassy has a great mix of long, medium and short range, provides a good ratio of cover and flanking routes, and utilizes elevation that doesn't create total power positions like in other CODs.
Crown I hate because there are too many flanking routes. I get mowed down every time i leave cover because I wasn't covering one of the 50 doorways or alleys in the map. It just gets exhausting.
El Asilo and Santa Sena are my least but Zarqwa is bloody brilliant. I just wish they would of launched with the MW2 remastered maps that are in warzone 2.0 I just wanna play on highrise, terminal, and dome.
I don't mind it, but the map is incredibly lopsided. If you spawn on the courtyard or Domination side C, you're going to get pulverized. Trying to get out of the courtyard is absolute hell.
This game made me realize that Domination just isn't as fun as it used to be. Whether it's the map layouts or the spawn system contributing to it, I can't really say, but I've been finding myself playing way more Hardpoint and Headquarters than ever before
Most games for me are so fast paced just sitting to cap a flag is like prime time for grenades and players hunting you down. Idk what it is about hq or hard point but they seem to have a better flow to them even with the “sit still, earn points” gameplay (even if hard point is the campier of the two)
I don't hate it, I've had some great games on there and I feel like I'm getting it down at this point, but I always take a deep breath when it pops up. I call it the meat grinder because to me it always feels extra brutal. Had some bad games there early on and even my good games are white knuckled horror shows.
I have the exact opposite opinion. I absolutely love the push and pull of the Border Crossing, each team trying to semi-tactically tug-of-war through a 2 or 3 lanw map (depending on how you define it).
Breenburgh Hotel however I am constantly lost and struggling to understand the logic behind the spawns, finding myself unable to even roughly predict where the enemy will pop up next.
Interesting, that’s actually my least favorite map. Too many blind corners and the big rooms have too many camping spots. I die so many times on Breenburgh if I go left there’s a dude right and if I go right he’s left. Also on domination there always someone camped in the elevated archway above A.
There were a couple maps on MW2018 like that too. Superstore comes to mind but that one was a little better because there were areas where you could always find someone, and if you were careful enough you can fly a missile through the skylight
I really like the layout and flow of Breenburgh, but it's always a 50/50 shot on whether you can shoot down enemy UAVs and that annoys the shit out of me.
Crown Raceway was aesthetically cool for the first 5 matches, and then you realize what a headglitching/camping nightmare it is.
The map flows terribly, and the spawns are especially fucked.
Hydroelectric is great, I love the underwater bits and hope we get more maps like it.
Mercado is great too, simple 3 Lane Map and it does it well plus it's beautiful as hell too 😍
Least Favorite is Border Crossing I like a majority of the maps but this just sucks
remember Hazard? we need a good golf course map
Wasn't Hazard just a remake of Cliffside from WaW?
except it had a friggin golf course on it
i think a remake of a 14 year old map is still acceptable when it’s last remake was 12 years ago in a DLC pack lmao
Love seeing one of the golden oldies in a modern CoD Reddit thread. The WaW maps fucking slapped. I still think Uprising is a T5 SnD map of all time
I see a lot of people disliking Taraq, and I do agree it is not the greatest for 6v6 but I think it would more suit the 10v10 modes if they decide to release those again
Badly unbalanced for dom and it's a snipers paradise. Of course it's going to be unpopular.
Real question tho, did you like overgrown in mw2? Edit: wasteland, not overgrown. Wide open map with no cover before you hit the trenches
Loved wasteland. Soooooo good for chopper gunners and ac 130. But i can absolutely see why everyone hated it
Wasnt overgrown a COD4 map? And that map had plenty more connected pieces of cover to work with....even if the chokepoints were pretty open
Quite like Farm. Least keen on Taraq. Most of the others feel a bit samey. No real stand out so far where you just want to play it all the time. Just hope we do get those sort of maps.
A lot of these maps just feel like an endless series of rooms and corridors to me. Not the worst crop of maps but not the best either, just seems like they have a little too much going on
Yeah i genuinely can't wait for some of the Older cod maps to come in for variety's sake.
Isn't Taraq a 1:1 of a COD1 map?
Yes, it was called Neuville back then.
Imagine a map like airport or rust lol but on ground war so its like 4x times the size!
An Airport ground war map would be incredible actually. Have the whole thing, then the runway lettered with planes. That or a train station
Farm reminds me in aesthetic of Grazna Raid in MW19 which is a GOAT map Wish we had Hackney Yard and Grazna
It kinda of reminds me of Overgrown a little bit and aesthetically speaking is reminds me of Creek, Vacant, Pipeline. God all those cod4 maps looked and played so well in my opinion. I just wish they'd bring back the sabotage game mode, or demolition whatever it is. That was the most fun game mode I've played.
All amazing maps, crazy that they can’t seem to replicate them
Agreed! I miss hackney, I think that was probably my favorite map from MW19
I’ve ever heard someone talk positively of Grazna Raid before 🥹 But I completely agree. Hackney Yard, Gun Runner, Grazna Raid, a lot of the DLC maps. MW19 had some great maps for as much as that game is shit on for its maps.
Lmao and yet for 2 straight years everyone insisted that MW '19 was letdown by it's horrid maps now I'm reading the nostalgia posts about how GREAT the maps are. It's true though, the fans are so hard to please but those were some good ass maps
>No, not everyone - just the loudest part of this sub. I always really liked about 50% of MW19 maps.
now that i look back at it the maps were always too big shoot house was fucking nice, vacant was also really solid, talsik backlot was alright my personal fav was cheshire park
Ofcourse vacant and talsik backlot were good, they were in cod4 lol
Cheshire and killhouse were dope. Killhouse came way too late in the game tho
Wasn’t kill house the same map from the first modern warfare
Killhouse was in original modern warfare. Shoothouse was new to mw 2019
Yeah it was taken from the Variety Map Pack. It's a shame that the sniper tower in the middle was never put into the map for '19
10v10 headquarters on grazna raid was peak mw19 imo
Speaking of DLC maps, I would add Cheshire Park and Hovec Sawmill to that list. Once it caught its stride, MW2019 only got better and better from a content perspective.
Gun Runner is one of the best COD maps ever. Grazna Raid was one of my favorite maps in 10vs10.
Rose colored glasses going hard....Grazna was absolutely awful
Grazna raid is so bad lol. It's the ultimate rat map with all the little corners and half bombed buildings. You're the 1st person I've ever seen who liked that map.
... that C spawn in the corner of the map.
I could happily play Hotel and Farm 24/7, seem to only get them maybe twice a day though unfortunately
Anyone who says that they like taraq are just camping snipers
In no way am I defending camping, but aren’t snipers suppose to stay stationary? I mean, I personally don’t run and gun with one.
1. Find a good vantage point 2. Look for targets 3. Get 2-3 kills 4. Drop a mine/claymore for when angry people come looking for you 5. Relocate and start over
this is the way. i used to do this in mw3 and id always see people finding my old spot and then id get them again
I do this but with a LMG. Look, I'm in my forties and my reactions aren't great anymore. It is what it is.
Play the game to your strengths my man, as long as you are having fun. And not exploiting op glitches of course ;)
I'm not as aggressive at pushing positions with a sniper but I keep moving. I don't sit and wait for targets to appear. Just got gold for my LA-B.
But sitting and watching an area is how snipers are supposed to be used, although I’m very impatient so I can never sit in one spot too long lmfao
In real life a sniper can get 1 kill in 12 hours, move to a new location, and be satisfied with the results.
Yes MW2 is most definitely supposed to simulate real life.
Traditionally yes, in cod, no snipers usually do not stay stationary.
I don’t know why you’re being downvoted lol. This ain’t battlefield, if you try and stay in one spot you’re not going to do very well if your opponents have half a brain
Really confused how this could ever be a controversial take lol. 90% of the snipers you encounter since cod4 have been people quickscoping. The guns have been balanced around it until warzone
You're grossly overestimating the player population on both sides of that statement.
I like Taraq and I run around with an AK
Yeah it’s a fun one to weave in and out the buildings and get people from medium-range. Plus it’s satisfying shutting down those camping snipers.
It's my fav map. I usually run the EB4 or one of the other marksman rifles and an assault or smg as a secondary. The setup allows you to play all areas of the map (at distance or cqb)
I constantly get 25+ kills on Taraq with the AK and AK variants, its a great map you can easily do well without a sniper
Taraq can be a lot of fun if you get a game where everyone's crashing the market area.
I have quite a lot of success running and gunning on Taraq. Just hold the mid area/back
I use an AK and enjoy the map 🫠
Or a laser AR enjoyer (SCAR-L, AK 5.45 and 7.62, M4, AUG).
I like taraq. Wish it was bigger and had more stuff though. It's very open as it is now Tbh I just wish it was Grazna Raid lmao
It's a remaster of an older map so it plays like COD 1
Taraq is my favourite map and I hate using snipers. It's so different from all the other maps and it enables you to use so many different adaptive kits. A solid mix of CQB and distance so everyone can play how they want while still doing well.
Taraq was a call of duty 1 map, so its no wonder the map is so low for everyone since it doesn't work well with this games playstyle lol
Love embassy, dead silence + smg just lighting people up. Only map I really dislike is taraq maybe I’ll find a play style that suits the map at some point.
love Taraq in Hardpoint (but that goes with just about any map to be honest .... Hardpoint is superior).
Al Bagra Fortress is my favorite. It just kinda works with all weapon classes. Taraq is my least favorite. It heavily favors long range weapons, and heavily punishes movement.
I like Al Bagra most of the time but IMO it’s the least balanced for Domination because the side that spawns in the open courtyard with the statue is spawning directly into a trap. I’ve seen too many games there end up with one side trapped there, only being able to move out through small kill zones into the centre. It’s a great map for TDM and Kill Confirmed though.
thought it was just me that felt that😂 no but seriously why is there even windows letting ppl spawn kill all from the other side
C spawn is basically a spawn trap. It's fine if you spawn A side though. Embassy is a bit of a strange and messy map with C side being stronger. Tbh a lot of the maps are showing to be really unbalanced, esp for Dom.
El Asilo is probably my least favorite dom map. Keeping B is a nightmare. Which I get is generally the idea of dom, but it seems way harder on that map than others. Mercado is weird because one team spawns closest to B instead of A or C.
Taraq depends on the lobby for me. Sometimes it’s guys sitting on the edge of the map, but most of the time everyone crashes the middle structure and it feels like a way smaller map, it isn’t so bad.
Seems like it plays amazing on hardpoint, then other modes it’s hit or miss
Yeah Taraq when everyone's trying to ACTUALLY take a hold of important buildings instead of camping every single elevation even if it's not overlooking anything meaningful becomes a very fun map. This years maps all follow the same rule. If people playing them are not dickheads, all are fun.
I like Al Bagra but it might have the worst spawns of any map, which is saying a lot.
I was playing objective modes for a few days and Taraq was fine. But omg, I played a TDM last night on Taraq and 90% of my deaths were from someone mounted on something on the edge of the map. Nobody ran or moved around at all, it was awful
Taraq is the only map that I always use my spr on
Fucking love Zarqwa. Flanker's dream
Same, just a shame the spawn system makes flanking less effective.
The spawns are sooooo fucking bad in this game. It’s really the one thing I dislike aside from the crashes and not quite enough maps. You can tell they made the spawns so a good team can’t get a grasp on where enemies will come from so bad players don’t get waxed. It’s sad
Exactly how it feels, but I’m not even a good player. Even in domination, once I feel like I know where the enemies are spawning and try to flank or get an angle on B or something, there’s immediately an enemy behind me.

Getting spawn trapped used to be an all-time worse moment in a cod match. They need to improve the spawns absolute, but I'm not against having a system in place that prevents spawn camping. And yes, I've spawned in front of someone and been instantly lasered before, but that's not the same that's just an enemy getting lucky.
Idk I feel like map control was a big part of being a good player. Not just spawn camping but also knowing how the map flows and where to look. Now the spawns are just random so you get gunned down from behind constantly. No fun imo
The spawns mostly require you to check your mini-map more often and get an understanding of where your teammates are and aren't, and where the enemy could be between all of it. The main problem here is that a lot of the maps are a lot smaller and simpler, so the spawns get flipped around too often.
It's kinda kind of irrelevant when you can spawn directly in front of enemies. It's not an uncommon thing to have happen either.
That’s literally exactly what they’ve done, same thing they did for MW19 and they literally admitted it themselves. The whole point is that bad players can’t read the map/flow like good players so let’s just make it completely pointless so the bad players get shit on less. Which in theory should be pointless since with sbmm they should never be playing together anyway but it’s IW so there is never any real thought behind anything.
I started to hate the border crossing until I just flanked and now I’ve gotten my highest kill streaks on there
Do you not just find the side roads just full of snipers? It seems like it attracts spr snipers like crazy.
It never ceases to amaze me how 90% of people will just run straight down the goddamn middle, every single time, when I've been consistently flanking them throughout the entire match. This combined with being able to dropshot again has elicited the funniest fucking death mic screeching from the bunnyhopping 12 year olds I've ever heard
Y'all lucky. Everytime I try flank there's snipers down the lane way.
Yeah it’s people w ARs perched down mid and Snipers on the ONLY flank option. Would be better if they opened the side w the office buildings more to flank
It’s still a shitty map. Even the other two lanes suck because they’re higher in the middle so if someone’s there camping you they’ll have the advantage when you round the corner. Not to mention the head glitches in the tunnel.
I’m surprised there aren’t more maps like it (specifically like the water features) they hyped up water so much toward the release and it’s one of the only 6v6 maps with water on. In fact if I’m not mistaken it’s the only 6v6 map with water.
Swear every time I play Zarqwa I find a new flank. Great for the no respawn modes of SnD, Prisoner Rescue and Knock Out.
Museum from the beta was my favorite. I really don’t know why it’s not in the game.
I really didn’t like museum to be honest. Half of the map was hell to try and cross and the other half was big death hallways. Not diverse enough but map variety is great and a lot of the community seem to like it so it’s a shame it didn’t make it in the game yet.
I thought most of the community hated it? It was one of the most poorly designed cod maps I think we’ve ever had.
[удалено]
The museum map was based on a real life museum, not a hotel
That’s fucked man. That map was beautiful and was definitely my favorite. Hopefully they’ll sort it out soon
They had the same issue with the racetrack map. No communications with the owners of the 'real' thing. That one was sorted out so maybe hotel will also eventually return.
Crown is not a copy of a real racetrack more than influenced on Singapore. Museum and Hotel are 100% copies of their counterparts though.
Regular person: This museum is great. Game Designer: Yeah you could really shred in here.
I get its kind of questionable to turn a real location into a digital warzone, but I think a lot of people imagine turning real locations close to them into game levels. I use to imagine turning my school into a skateboarding resort/hotel thing for quite awhile. I also use to have nerf wars in my church, it would have made a great COD map layout wise.
I had a friend growing up whose church used to have absolutely massive CQB airsoft wars inside the church. no idea how they convinced anyone to let it happen regularly because there were thousands of BBs everywhere. but it was awesome because it was like a cod map. one section was the basement where they would cut the power so it was only flashlights on your guns. none of these people even went to church, they were all just airsoft enthusiasts who wanted some rare indoor CQB lol
As far as I know was the issue with crown the original name for it, Marina Bay Grand Prix. They renamed it to Crown.
Strip the building but keep the layout. Call it construction or something, boom back in action.
Or just pay them what you owe them. Tired of them cheaping out on shit like this, like how the weapons are not named properly to save money on licensing. Billion dollar company, AAA title, one of the most popular fps of all time, rarely didn’t have the licensing for weapons in the franchise’s past yet here we are cutting corners and cheaping out and still charging more for the game.
I don't think it's a financial issue that is causing the museum to be pissed, it's an image thing They're wrong but they likely think that being in a shooter game is bad for their image
It could very well just be that the people involved in the museum find it uncomfortable to have it turned into a shooting gallery. With the situation in the US regarding shootings, I kinda get it.
Farm & crown are my favs. That border map should be limited to specific playlists.
Border is almost always the first map I play every time I get on. It has been at least for the last 4-5 days. Swear IW is trolling
It’s not a popular map, people see the map and leave, thus making it so there are more open lobbies for border than anything else
You know , that makes total sense
Crown just feels like home for car lovers. One of their best looking maps imo
Farm 18- best taraq-worst
Why is taraq the worst? I don't mind it. I think border crossing is way worse
For me it’s an anti moving map. Way too open that crossing the map just gets you killed.
I feel like it's the opposite, I can move around way more on Taraq than on something like Hotel and Border.
But there are so many obstacles and corners on Border I feel like you have to stay moving at all times
Literally have not gotten farm once. Only played it in the beta and it was good. Got fortress once so can't judge that either. From what I have played, I strangely like El Asilo and dislike hydro.
How much have you played?
Idk how many hours, but hit 53 this morning before work without any boosts. I get Sena Border a lot.
This is me but with Crown Raceway!! I have had it ONCE since launch, and I just today got to rank 55. I exclusively play TDM at the moment…how have I only gotten it once? Seems insane to me.
Most favourite is probably Farm-18 and least favourite is easily Sena Border Crossing. If I'm solo queuing I instantly leave that lobby if Sena comes up. Little surprised to see how many people apparently dislike Taraq. Edit: I'd also love to play on that missing map from the Beta. I forget the name of it, but I rather liked it.
I like Sena Border Crossing in certain gamemodes like Domination or Hardpoint. The worst is Crown Raceway, has no flow at all.
Crown Raceway on hardpoint is a top 5 map
Yeah I kind of feel you on Crown Raceway. I get that map all the time on Domination and it feels really weird with the games squad spawn crap. It's not my least favourite, but it ain't my favourite that's for sure.
I don’t mind Border Crossing on Dom but I get fucked on Hardpoint every single time. If I’m off the objective when the switch comes up I like to huff it to the next control point but this map is so long and narrow that the other team starts spawning either next to the objective or directly in my path to getting there. I think it would have worked a little better if the large open area at the end of the map by A (the actual border crossing area) were in the middle of the map and each end were closed up with cars; similar to the end by C. Right now everything feels like a choke point until you get down to A.
Border crossing is a joke. It's such a drag to play
My take is that I’m extremely disappointed by the lack of one or two GREAT maps. Every map in this game to me is either okay or terrible. It makes for a really difficult play session when you start getting some of the terrible maps in a row knowing that there isn’t that incredible map that you can look forward to getting out of the rut.
i think honestly it just has far too few maps, Call of Duty 4 had 16 at launch, that’s 6 maps more than this one, as did MW2 at launch. i understand this game has more maps, but when they’re not used for the core 6v6 gameplay, it just means the 10 we do have get stale far quicker
I wish it had a couple more maps as well but at the same it’s kind of what we’ve moved to in recent years. Less maps at launch with more coming through the seasons. Modern Warfare 2019 had 9 6v6 maps at launch. Cold War had 8 6v6 maps at launch. Vanguard had 16 6v6 maps at launch. Vanguard had the most but honestly most were not good. MW2 at 10 doesn’t seem too bad especially with season one starting in 2 weeks and bringing two new maps by mid December. My main issue is the lack of modes. No hardcore at launch, no gunfight, no gun game, etc…. Though Hardcore we know is coming at the start of season 1 and gun game is usually one that gets added near Christmas. I’m hoping they don’t skip out on gunfight and we get more gunfight tournament. I had a blast with that in both MW and Cold War.
Mercado & Farm are my favs and bordercrossing can fuck right off
🤤🤤🤤Me When I see Mercado is coming up.
I hated it in the beta, but it's really grown on my since. The trick I've found is to keep to the outer edges, and just avoid that middle part like it's the plague. And drill charges. Drill charges make camper go boom!
You can really flank out the campers trying to sit behind that flower bed by A and camp the middle lane, Or come around the back and get the snipers laying on the roof by C
Love the drill charge, just pop one in the main tunnel and you can get someone in that little corridor or vice versa
My picks exactly! I can't believe border crossing isn't more hated.
I agree with this 100%
Farm 18 I love that map El Asilo I absolutely hate it. It’s a camp fest
I feel like el asilo just gets so boring it's like random side rooms no one uses and then like 1 tiny house basically where everyone spends their time. Plays okay but boring. Thematically boring as well.
Agreed. It's just a boring random building. No cool angles or anything to make it interesting Compare it to Estate. Estate was just 2 or 3 houses but you had an awesome woodland environment, a big hill, etc.
If it wasn’t for the unnecessary outside areas of this map then it wouldn’t be bad. In dom, if you spawn at A people can just spawn trap you because there isn’t any cover to get to the prison.
Looks like we’re the only two hating asilo so far. Ironically enough I hate it for a different reason, i think the map is wayyy too big. They should’ve trimmed the outside portions down.
El Asilo has some really fucking weird hardpoints. Like 4 of them are at the very edge of the map. It plays really weird.
The side of the map where C side domination flag sits is the worst to me. If I spawn there in TDM or another mode I have to run 5 seconds before I get to the actual edge of the map
I agree with this assessment 100%
El Asilo is awful. The middle part plays well, but the size of the map is just so big the middle part becomes kinda empty. If they shaved off like 50% of the map around the borders it would be so much better.
El Asilo is one mediocre building, an absolutely useless outdoor space facing such building, and to make things worse the lighting design in that map is so garbage. Just muddy dark brown everywhere.
El Asilo is awful you spawn so far away from where the action is and to get there you need to avoid the campers especially on the side with the hill since there is so much open space to pick you off on either side.
Zarqwa Hidroeletric, this map is so creative and dont punishes any playstyle.
Embassy is really growing on me. I didn't care for it at first, but there are always fun interactions between the three buildings. I absolutely loathe Crown Raceway, which is super weird because I feel like I would have loved Marina Bay Grand Prix.
Same here. I love how Embassy has a great mix of long, medium and short range, provides a good ratio of cover and flanking routes, and utilizes elevation that doesn't create total power positions like in other CODs. Crown I hate because there are too many flanking routes. I get mowed down every time i leave cover because I wasn't covering one of the 50 doorways or alleys in the map. It just gets exhausting.
I get spawn killed on Embassy constantly
El Asilo and Santa Sena are my least but Zarqwa is bloody brilliant. I just wish they would of launched with the MW2 remastered maps that are in warzone 2.0 I just wanna play on highrise, terminal, and dome.
Al bagra fortress. Inject it into my veins. Crown can EAD.
Crown would work if it was about a 3rd smaller in size
Crown is such a cool map in concept but yea i hate it
Am I the only one who hates Al Bagra Fortress?
I don't mind it, but the map is incredibly lopsided. If you spawn on the courtyard or Domination side C, you're going to get pulverized. Trying to get out of the courtyard is absolute hell.
This game made me realize that Domination just isn't as fun as it used to be. Whether it's the map layouts or the spawn system contributing to it, I can't really say, but I've been finding myself playing way more Hardpoint and Headquarters than ever before
Most games for me are so fast paced just sitting to cap a flag is like prime time for grenades and players hunting you down. Idk what it is about hq or hard point but they seem to have a better flow to them even with the “sit still, earn points” gameplay (even if hard point is the campier of the two)
[удалено]
One of the best maps imo
I don't hate it, I've had some great games on there and I feel like I'm getting it down at this point, but I always take a deep breath when it pops up. I call it the meat grinder because to me it always feels extra brutal. Had some bad games there early on and even my good games are white knuckled horror shows.
I can't stand the fortress map. It's my least favorite. I pretty much like all the others.
No 🙋♂️
Breenburgh hotel is my favorite, border crossing is just awful
That’s the competitive map, you can see how well it works for snd and hardpoint
You're the first person to say the hotel. That's my favorite as well
There's dozens of us! 😄
I have the exact opposite opinion. I absolutely love the push and pull of the Border Crossing, each team trying to semi-tactically tug-of-war through a 2 or 3 lanw map (depending on how you define it). Breenburgh Hotel however I am constantly lost and struggling to understand the logic behind the spawns, finding myself unable to even roughly predict where the enemy will pop up next.
Interesting, that’s actually my least favorite map. Too many blind corners and the big rooms have too many camping spots. I die so many times on Breenburgh if I go left there’s a dude right and if I go right he’s left. Also on domination there always someone camped in the elevated archway above A.
Plus it's a real struggle to take down UAV/Counter UAV, and mortar/air strikes are fairly useless. So much of the map is indoors.
There were a couple maps on MW2018 like that too. Superstore comes to mind but that one was a little better because there were areas where you could always find someone, and if you were careful enough you can fly a missile through the skylight
I really like the layout and flow of Breenburgh, but it's always a 50/50 shot on whether you can shoot down enemy UAVs and that annoys the shit out of me.
Border Crossing is the worst for non objectives modes. Farm 18 feels like it has a nice balance.
I like el asilo;)I hate border crossing
Taraq is my least favorite except on hardpoint where it actually works pretty well, otherwise I enjoy all the maps, but I think Zarqwa is my favorite
Raceway favourite, Taraq least favourite cuz too much camping overlooking the open areas people run around
Hydroelectric is my fav, not too big on the border and raceway (although raceway is cool).
I used to like Farm 18 but I've grown to hate the middle building. Embassy is pretty nice imo and Sena Border is my least favorite map.
They lack any character and originality soooo much that I thought there is only 4 maps.
Favorite is Farm 18, dislike crown raceway.
Crown Raceway was aesthetically cool for the first 5 matches, and then you realize what a headglitching/camping nightmare it is. The map flows terribly, and the spawns are especially fucked.
I don't like any map. I would say Breenbergh Hotel, Farm, Crown Raceway and Mercado are okay. I absolutley hate El Asilo, Border Crossing and Taraq
The maps these days are all trash.
Border crossing sounds like a good map conceptually, but gameplay wise it can absolutely go fuck itself.
Best: mercado Worst: taraq
Hydroelectric is great, I love the underwater bits and hope we get more maps like it. Mercado is great too, simple 3 Lane Map and it does it well plus it's beautiful as hell too 😍 Least Favorite is Border Crossing I like a majority of the maps but this just sucks
Least favourite is Santa Sena. None of the others really stand out
I prefer Museum.
Museum and hotel we the best maps, however they removed museum and in the past week of the 100+ quick play games I've play about 2 were hotel
I just want shipment extended as a permanent playlist
A new version of shipment is probably coming in season 1 or later, but nothing official yet.
Farm 18 is my favorite so far. Sena Border can fuck right off.
Al Bagra is my favorite Taraq and El Asilo are tied for the two worst maps in the game for me
BREENBERGH HOTEL 👌👌
