anyone else think the maps suck? thank god terminal is in here. because of their designs, i feel like i just stick to one class most of the time. and maybe switch to my other anti uav one when needed.

i learned to enjoy dome, but for the most part the maps are nothing to go crazy over. games are usually played the same, so im always using my ump class way more than others.
i despise that one in the snow, name escapes me since i've only had the game for a week.

Prior to playing MW3 online, the last FPS I played online was Doom back in the early 90s, though I DID play a little Counterstrike via LAN, so as far as being bale to comment on the maps compared to other games, my opinion might be a little flawed.
I agree that Terminal is one of the better maps, due to it's size and layout. Plenty of cover, plenty of "oh crap!" areas that you can literally run into your opponents. Perhaps my only dislike is the rear of the plane as someone can lay there and get a bunch of kills via sniper rifle and silenced machine pistol.
Dome is ok - a bunch of small areas with few hazards aside from other players. Perhaps the only flaw is the placement of B in Domination, as a single camper could hold it for awhile depending on his/her setup.
Resistance, though a good, small fast map for FFA, TDM or KC has a few things working aganist it BECAUSE of it's size. Perhaps my main personal beef with it is the fact that it's far too easy to hipfire an AA-12 or Striker and get kills. But it does have it's redeeming points as well - the street with several cars is a ticking time bomb, as all it takes is one car to blow up and the others quickly follow suit. Also, the courtyard area(where all the crates are) is ideal for quick skirmishes.
Mission tends to become a sniper campers playground in Domination, due to the placement of C, but other than that it's not too bad.
Underground is ok, though the tops of the train cars at the back end of the map let snipers have decent shots, and sometimes becomes a camper's hiding spot.

proves my point. since terminal is an original mw2 map. i realize you wouldnt know this since you said the last fps you played was doom.

The maps in this game are much better than the BLOPS2 maps for starters. Easily. Sure there are some bad maps, but the vast majority are good.
Downturn
Outpost
Fallen
~Interchange
~Dome
Are easily the worst maps, with the latter two being passable. Some of the best maps include Hardhat, Lockdown and Seatown.

hah, really not surprised that you're complaining about any complete treyarch game.
thats why mw3 suffers too. shame that whole debacle happened. we may have at least one solid CoD every other year rather than a mediocre one every year.

Actually compared to other fps games I have played these maps are pretty good! I have only played BO1/2 and MW3, so I dont have a lot to choose from. I have stopped playing BO2 and came back to this game so that says something

Seatown, Bootleg, Mission, and Hardhat are the only good maps.

Not sure what you're trying to get at here; whether you're being sarcastic, or not. But I've played BLOPS2 and I could really only enjoy Raid and 1 or two other maps in that game. Whereas I like most maps in this game, except for the ones listed.

sarcasm? ok...
i was pointing out that the cod games by treyarch have always been the worst... chill.

They're not as good as CoD4's maps, but on par with MW2's and better than BOps/BOps2's.
Add the DLC and only CoD4 had better maps

Fallen isn't bad IMO, and I wouldn't label Outpost as terrible. Dome is ok, but I only like it in Team Tactical. Interchange is pretty bad, and Downturn rivals 3arc's designs for worst map yet

interchange is pretty horrible. when i first played this i was like "surely the creators knew people would just camp in the little dark corners made by the freeway... right?"
wrong.
