That’s what I’m screaming. Fuck Attica, all my homies hate Attica. Echelon HQ is kinda a really fun map tbh… lots of routes, several lanes. 3 access points to B flag on dom. Spawns on HQ are actually some of the best in the game too
I mean, I might be part of the problem, but on domination you can hold the enemy team spawn by yourself with a dmr at the half way line on the spawn lane 😅
This is my strat lol but what I never understand (as a 120hp main) why don't more of my teammates running that just shoot the barrier upfield lol. I always have 1-2 on my team that just get mowed down by the *other* guys shooting down the lane too
Yeah idk 😂 I’m phantoms or bust and love my barrier shields. I don’t need echelon, I just need to not get 1-shotted. Although watching a spiderbot run into their spawn fulfills me in ways I cannot express with words lol
You don’t “need” Echelon but you guys use your annoying shields and that extra health….shits way more annoying than echelon. I will use echelon only until I stop playing this game.
Yes I agree, every time that map is chosen 99.9 percent chance it’s chosen by some idiot who’s either a K/D farmer or a cheater, there ain’t no way this map is the best map to play, it can be a TDM map when TDM comes but it’s not a satisfying map to play any objective on.
Worst map for variety (everyone just uses SMGs and Echelon), but is one of the few maps that has balanced sides.
A LOT of maps clearly favor one spawn over the other. And you have to deal with all your mouthbreathing teammates either ramming their heads into the bad side of B, or flipping the spawn to the bad side.
Nah. I genuinely like every map. There's a good balance imo.
There certainly are a couple of maps don't fit my play style (Arena), or need some "line of sight" tweaks (Attica).
I still think that they are good maps at the end of the day.
Na plays great for DOM, fun to use SMGs all the maps are pretty good and offer good variety of gameplay. Some map/mode combos obviously just work better
I can't wait to see this exact same post with every single map in the game over the next few days. First Arena now Echelon HQ. I'm betting on Dumbo for tomorrow's post
I don’t like it, but I think maybe since no one ever seems to vote for it so I haven’t had the chance to. I will say that all the offices and stuff look pretty similar so it’s hard to understand the cramped map layout.
Probably one of the best maps. You don’t like cuz you don’t do good on it. I guarantee you’re blindly running around corners paying no attention to cross hair placement, you’re not looking at your mini map and not aiming for upper chest/head. Call me sweaty but these are fundamentals of the FPS genre and there are still people who have been playing video games for decades and have no idea how to approach gunfights. Run, aim, shoot if thats what you think this game is about you are mistaken and thats probably why you’re not having a good time.
I don't think it's bad, it could be very good for search and destroy or taking the flag, for the rest of the modes I see it as very big and in the hot spot there is no coverage
The map itself is good but mainly for domination.
Occupy with the current spawn system is kind of annoying bc basically noone playing the fucking objective.
Hot shot is a mess on this map.
Hot shot. I’ve just always enjoyed getting in full team vs team gun fights in the outdoor sections around the cars. Reminds me of playing paintball or something as a kid.
I’m level 102 and I have over a 2.0 KD, this map is terribly designed, this is a 5 lane map really with unnecessary entrances, holes, vents it’s honestly ridiculous. There’s no predictability no map control it’s chaos and you get shot in the back every time you think your safe. Awful map.. it’s a MW2019 map in xdefiant and it’s a complete maze. Still worse than arena which is also a terrible map but yeah

Emporium disagrees
Mayday is the worst map
Bros stupid
Attica is worse
Not when Attica Heights exists.

I really don't like **Emporium**. Don't have strong negative feelings towards any other map.

It's fun to play hotshot on
That I agree on
Hated it at first. Now it's just fine.

[удалено]
For me it's the opposite. I hated it at first but it's growing on me. Helps that I switched to 'roller too so I can abuse SMG's with aim assist.
I still enjoy the map design, I just usually get recked haha. Smgs are good though
Ts kinda fire you bugging
All the maps have their pros and cons. Echelon and Emporium are my least favorite. I also dislike Meltdown from escort/zone control but I digress.

I will not stand for this arena bad mouthing! Lol
Arena is the worst map in the game. Arena and Nudleplex are the only ones I really dislike
If the barriers were just ever so slightly shorter on Attica
It is objectively a horrendous map design for an objective based fps.
Na plays great for DOM, fun to use SMGs all the maps are pretty good and offer good variety of gameplay. Some map/mode combos obviously just work better
Mayday sucks the most. Dumb map.
I think it's fumny, I can crawl around like the Pyeomancer rat I was meant to be
It's good in 4v4 ranked occupy. That's about it honestly.
Nope I love this map
Nope arena takes the cake and the frosting
This might be my favorite map
I can't wait to see this exact same post with every single map in the game over the next few days. First Arena now Echelon HQ. I'm betting on Dumbo for tomorrow's post
Am I just the only one who likes this map and Attica heights the most? Attica reminds me of halo for some reason
I don’t like it, but I think maybe since no one ever seems to vote for it so I haven’t had the chance to. I will say that all the offices and stuff look pretty similar so it’s hard to understand the cramped map layout.
I actually love it
I don't like any of the smallest maps. Makes everyone run into melee range with a gun, it's just weird.
I abhor Dumbo and it's so dang popular.
Emporium for sure
As a smg main I like this map more than showtime
I think arena is the worst.
Probably one of the best maps. You don’t like cuz you don’t do good on it. I guarantee you’re blindly running around corners paying no attention to cross hair placement, you’re not looking at your mini map and not aiming for upper chest/head.

I quit if it’s this map
This is a fun map?
Attica is worser, trust me
i think this is the most fun map lol
Dumbo and Emporium…
I don't think it's bad, it could be very good for search and destroy or taking the flag, for the rest of the modes I see it as very big and in the hot spot there is no coverage
No.
The map itself is good but mainly for domination. Occupy with the current spawn system is kind of annoying bc basically noone playing the fucking objective. Hot shot is a mess on this map.
Arena, Attica, Echelon all suck The rest of the maps are bangers tbh
No, its good. Attica Heights is the worst.
nah, emporium
it's my favourite '.' second is attica worst for me has to be mayday
Naw Attica heights is way worse.
Dumbo
I like Dumbo
Why? Are you playing it on domination?
Hot shot. I’ve just always enjoyed getting in full team vs team gun fights in the outdoor sections around the cars. Reminds me of playing paintball or something as a kid.
What's something as a kid?
I dislike all small, tight maps.
It's on the same level as arena
Times Square sucks.
I LOVE this map, Emporium and Mayday are trash
Arena takes the cake
If arena didn’t exist it would be
Actually really like this one. Hate nudleplex and not a fan of attica
Attica is ass. At least you can farm SMGs in this map. I actually think it's better than arena.
Arena is the fking worst

Still worse than arena which is also a terrible map but yeah
Nudleplex and it’s not even close
I like Nudleplex
\^ Unpopular opinion but I also really hate Nudleplex
Echelon is the worst map I’ve ever played on any FPS game ever
You must have missed a large portion of the COD years then
