Complaints on Modern Warfare 2 Multiplayer Maps
Modern Warfare 2
The scope of the Modern Warfare 2 maps in multiplayer are quite huge in most cases. This generally would be seen as a blessing, compared to the cluttered maps of Call of Duty 4, but many are complaining that these large maps leave too much room for camping.
The maps are very open ended this time around while playing over Xbox Live. You will find that there are up to five different ways to get to the same location while playing multiplayer. This is generally a good idea, but for some maps, it is just nothing short of troublesome. People, even though there are many ways to get to the same point, the camping in this game has seemingly gotten worse. People will now use riot shields for protection to protect their spot, along with the blast shield for explosion defense. There are even teams that will specifically camp a spot that has a watch point over multiple spots, which completely shuts off a portion of the map that you have access to.
In Call of Duty 4, camping was primarily a wide spread problem because the maps were so closed off and concealed. You would literally be able to be completely spawn killed for a whole match if you were going up against a clan using the M16 gun. Not only that, but there was often impenetrable cover that you would be able to find laying around in one place or another. To say the least, this brought a strong desire for larger maps in the players of CoD4. The idea was simply that larger maps would pretty much lead to you to be able to run around the campers simply put.
This idea does hold ground, and camping is not as worse as it once was, but it definitely is still there. I do not think you can completely remove camping from a first person shooter such as Call of Duty ever, simply due to its nature. Being the realistic game that it is, it is not as fast paced as some science fictional shooters may be. For those of you transitioning from Call of Duty 4 to Modern Warfare 2, it is most likely that you will notice a distinct difference in how you will have to play the game, at least at first. The maps are so large that instead of the constant close to medium distanced encounters that you used to have are generally no more, you will find that you will often be fighting from long distance this time around.
The camping is avoidable to a certain degree. Since the fighting takes place in such a long range, you would need to pretty much flank hard in order to avoid the camping and get the kill. It helps if you are cold blooded when trying to flank the enemy, helps even more if you have the ninja perk, because you will be completely silent and virtually invisible.You can see the usefulness of this sort of class in the multiplayer strategies and tips for modern warfare 2.
But comparing both Modern Warfare 2 and Call of Duty 4, Modern Warfare 2 is clearly the better game in terms of camp prevention. The maps are so open ended that not only can you easily flank the campers, but you will often find that it is often difficult to camp as easily as before. There were many complaints for the Modern Warfare 2 maps being too open ended and large. You may find that it is often hard to run into enemies at times, since the map is so large and the two enemies are moving in the same direction. The Modern Warfare 2 multiplayer maps are clearly a better choice than the previous games, not much to complain about.

it wood be better if on single player you could choose your own wepons to go on the mission with.
Ok i have a few things that i need to bring up. The first is the spawning in multiplayer. I can’t tell you how many times I have killed a guy and he spawns right next to me and kills me. Or it spawns him behind me so he can kill me! It pisses me off! Another thing is how cheap the kills are. There is no way people get the kills they do. Its just bogis how people can kill by shooting blindfire across a map and get kills. Also, you need to fix the elavators that are in EVERY MAP! Its terrible how you let this game be made with an elevator or glitch in every multiplayer map. YOU SUCK INFINITY WARD!!!!
