Hey IW,
If you are going regurgitate any maps from your previous games pick from Backlot, Bloc, Crossfire, or Bloc please......... Do you all agree? And please do NOT bring back any Treyarch mumbo jumbo!

Why would they? They aren't Treyarch. They are IW. I wouldn't worry about that.
Yeah I agree. I just had to say it cause I think that IW's games are far better than the subpar material that Treyarch puts out.
Bloc, Ambush, Shipment, and Wetwork.
bloc and wetwork are 2 of the worst maps ever made.
the only maps I'd like to see come back are Crossfire and Backlot. Backlot more than anything else. Maybe Crash for a 3rd time around too, it's just that good.

Opinions are like..... Well you get it. I really liked Bloc and Wetwork. The compliment all types of gameplay. Sniping, CQB, and mid range firefights. I would have said Crash but figured 2 games was enough. Wouldn't mind seeing Backlot or Crossfire. I liked most of the maps on COD4 except Creek, Showdown, and Countdown.
I agree, Black Ops is a dissapointment. Not a big one mind you, but just enough to become annoying. I get out gunned way to much in this game. MW2 I hold my own, but something is not right with BlkOps.
Right now I'm playing the Battlefield3 beta, and boy this game is about as much of a turn off as Metal of Honor and HomeFront! I'm so glad MW3 is coming soon.
Anybody want to buy Black Ops? Cheap!
Favela and Pipeline!!!!
If they bring back ANY maps from mw2 or cod4 I really hopee they follow Treyarchs lead of a 're-imagining' of an old favorite. I wasn't a big fan of the Cliffside remake Hazard, but I really like the idea of it.
Though who wants to buy a map that they've already purchased 2 times? Crazy people, that's who.
IW was the 1st to re-imagine maps -- they turned Carentan from cod2 into Chinatown in cod4 & Brecourt in cod2 was turned into Wasteland for MW2. Regardless, people need to stop asking for old maps because, imo, they don't necessarily play well in the new games because they weren't designed for them. Besides, I want new maps -- all of them.

One of the few times I agree with you Colonel. As much as I loved most of those COD4 maps they didn't feel right on MW2. Still wouldn't mind Shipment though. Lol.
Im not asking for them to bring back any old maps. I am just saying that if they do, which they will, i'd like them to be from the list above. + Pipeline, I loved that map, forgot about it for some reason. AND you are spot on with the Brecourt and Carentan from cod2, which were awesome maps back in the day.

Well you said it better then I would have. I just don't want any of the old maps. I played the heck out of them and now they are boring. Plus, if I am going to be paying for DLC, I want to make sure I am getting my $$ worth.

Loved all those maps! Hoping the maps are closer to CoD4 in design than MW2 or Blops.
out of the 4 you mentioned ambush would get my vote but bloc was terrible in all game modes
All I really used to play back in those days was SND, and I had some really memorable matches on Bloc. It wasn't tailored to a specific strat, you could run on offense and d, you could take it slow, whatever your style was.. But yea, I remember a lot of people not really liking it.
i really hated it myself along with wetwork
Wetwork is in a league of its own though man.. not a good league.
Would love to have Bloc and Backlot back. As well as others but you know they going to just charge us for it.
Yea they are going to charge us, thats what the Elite system monthly DLC is all about. I am just willing to bet that they DO end up bringing some originals back and hopefully they pick the good ones. I've been missing Backlot for what seems like forever..
Backlot and Pipeline are the most memorable maps in existance imo. I have many wonderful memories of SnD and Dom on those maps...
I would prefer Backlot, Bloc, and Broadcast those were the best in my opinion.
As long as they are free/cheaper than 9.99, I'll get it.
Those maps were incredible.
I am down with Bloc, Backlot, Crossfire, and Ambush. You gotta throw Pipeline and Downpour in their too. COD 4 Had some great maps.
If maps are coming back. (Which I'm sure they are)
Mw2: Highrise, rundown or terminal
Cod 4: Bloc, Backlot, Ambush or pipeline.
Bloc, Crossfire, pipeline, and Farm again
could also have some good games on showdown and countdown, but shipment SUCKED!!!!
Also, if u get HD edition you get All of the MW3 dlc for free even after your membership expires![]()
P.S. why did u use the word regurgitate!![]()
"'Also, if u get HD edition you get All of the MW3 dlc for free even after your membership expires"
Is that true?
You will get all the dlc before your free elite membership expires in one year, so yea you should get al dlc content. At XP it was mentioned that they have 20 planned items for dlc, now if they add more, who knows.
Well, cause, I do not know.....
I'd love to see either Bloc, Pipeline and Wetwork return. My three favourite maps from COD4.
I mean Downpour, not Wetwork.
I would prefer all new maps to be honest, it's funny, people moaned when 3arc did ONE completely remade and reskinned map, yet I have yet to hear anyone moan about how we paid for FOUR "copy and paste" maps in MW2, four out of ten is pathetic, and if these posts continue, it will happen again, lets not eh?
I agree with you to a point dstr001. It does suck to pay for old stuff....... though I do like to bring old maps back. Its fun to play the new game style on the old maps. If I was the man in charge, with the launch of Elite I would just release all the old infinity ward maps from the modern warfare games on top of the new ones just to show fan appreciation.
Now that I would like, unfortunately this is Activision we are talking about here, we haven't had a "freebie" map in a CoD game since WaW, and it was a sleightly tweaked map already in the game, would never happen on the level you speak of.
I would maybe go for a reduced price "classic pack" so to speak, 5 or more maps from CoD4 and Mw2, for 800 points, I would probably go for that.
I like that idea too. The only other beef I would have so to speak is to have 60 maps in the general playlist would suck. You wouldn't play all the maps you want. I think you'd have to divide the maps into separate playlists......
You should read the text in the forum man. Not asking them to bring back old maps. Just saying that when they do, which they most likely will, I would like them to be the ones listed. In other woulds I would not gripe or MOAN about it if they did.
Not moaning homie. If you look above I already answered your thread. I was actually just replying to what I thought of dstr001's post. I liked what he said. I like old content.
Yeah I got you, I was actually talking to him too. Just didn't reference it right I suppose..
Right on. And hopefully more people are as like minded as us. I chose three of your four maps. I like Ambush a lot. I just cant pick it over Pipeline or Downpour.
Yea, I am second guessing myself too, I forgot about Pipeline when I wrote this thread. Such a great map for all gametypes. Back on COD4 all I ever really played was TDM and SND though. Which is pretty much what I still play.
pipeline was that the one with the tunnels that went from one buliding to the other and something to do with trains ?
been a while since ive played cod4
Oh yeah, basement pathways most to buildings, good target locations, it had like 4-5 different levels to it. Great Map!!
****to most of the buildings****
OOPS
You do know there is an edit button?
Yeah, like I said Id be happy to bring all COD4 maps back, minus Shipment, Wet Work, and Showdown I think it was. I wasn't a huge fan of any of the small maps. I still am not a huge fan. Nuke Town gives me Aneurysms.![]()
If i had to choose from those i guess i would pick Bloc... BUT i would much rather have shipment or Vacant. CoD clan S-Kz RIP (Sniper Kingz)
