Which MW3 Map Should Return?

Hi All, been playing Terminal for a month on Xbox and PS3 just recently got it, and it's been kind of cool to play on a MW2 map, but it got me thinking...if IW was to bring back a MW3 map to their next game, which one would you choose?
I am not fond of MW3 maps, although I like how they have different sections for different playstyles. But just think they're boring, cluttered, and too many random exploding things like those red barrells.
So, let me know which map you'd bring back, how you're liking Terminal, and how you feel about MW3 maps in general.
Thanks!
Terminal is the cheapest map ever full of quick scoping and everyone hid everywhere lol
I'd say resistance, lockdown, dome, arkaden, bootleg, carbon, hard hat, village interchange and mission are the best
Of mw3 maps
Top 3 is dome, mission then village/interchange
I'd probably bring village back because high ks work good here
Are you kidding me dude? How is a map full of quickscoping? How does a map cater to quickscoping?
It doesn't.
There is no more quickscoping on Terminal then any map...if anything, there's more traditional sniping because of the long lines of sight.
agreed, there's a lot of traditional sniping on that map. No more quickscoping than any other map in my experience playing on it.
BTW Esy, not sure if you watched the vid, but I picked up an ACR and got 2 kills bc I ran out of ammo on my MK46, and I thought of you lol. I immediately put it down when I got new ammo and found another gun.
Didn't watch the video, might later. And whatever dude...I got my first MOAB using 70% ACR...it just proves my point, and I really don't care. As long as your video isn't spamming the ACR and claiming you're the best player ever because you got a MOAB with it it really doesn't matter
yeah man I agree though with some of your thoughts on it, I don't like to post ACR gameplays on my channel, maybe occasionally but no more than any other gun. The majority of MOABS seem to be with it.
I got my 1st like 7 MOABs with MP7 then like the next 10 with the ACR. Only later did I branch out and glad I did.
I agree on your below post with Mission or Hardhat. I'd probably prefer Hardhat, but both good maps.
If I were to bring back any MW3 maps, I suppose it would be Interchange. It's one of the only somewhat large maps. I'd like to think the spawns would be fixed if they bring it back.
Terminal isn't as good as it was in MW2. The spawns are awful, and it seems overly campy. It looks great. Very nicely re-done, but in terms of how it plays... no too good.
In general, I hate MW3 maps. Too small, too cluttered, and too random (that's parcially spawns as well).
Wow. To whoever said Dome, Dome sucks. I think Bakaara would be good because it is somewhat open and closed. Good for a lot of various styles of play. Snipers, Shotguns, Subs, ARs, LMGs...Seatown or Lockdown would be good maps too, one's semi-big, and the other is semi-small. Dome is just too small. P.S. Terminal should not have been brought back, IMO; would have rather had Estate, personally.
would have been fun to play rust on mw3. to answer the original question, they shouldn't bring any back. give us new maps. half of the fun is learning the maps inside and out. you want to recycle a map? work with rockstar and let us play mw4 in neighborhoods in san andreas. that would be fun.
I, too, tend to agree that they shouldn't bring any maps back in future titles. But this is all just for the sake of argument...
awesome idea, most interesting thing ive read today
Overwatch, really fun fast paced map that suits TDM, KC and DOM and works with most play styles, apart from camping as there isn't all that much scope for it and flanking is easy.
Forget MW3 maps.. why not bring back what a lot of the community feel are great maps?
Like shipment, Terminal, Rust, Afgan, Blok, etc.
Hell, bring back Possion and Elder Dam from COD:3.
I'd rather see future devs put thought and innovation into their games and give us new maps.... and never bring back the old. Old maps are good in their context... being the time period they were new and the game they were designed for.... but not as fun in their reincarnations.
I buy a new game... I want new maps.
NiceDrew I totally agree. It was kinda cool to play on Terminal, but given the choice I would much rather have had a new map.
They tell us it's free, but there is no such thing as a free lunch! It took resources that could have been used elsewhere, of course not as much resources as a new map, but still took them time and resources to put in MW3.
Surgeon: Forgot about Overwatch! If I had to pick 1, that might be it! It's a great Domination map, love the placement of the B flag.
Lockdown would be a good map. Arkaden always reminded me of Terminal for some reason. But any map they bring back won't last for long because right now Terminal is probably one of the worst maps to have in Mw3.
Majority of the people playing it have never played it before and before in Mw2 if the other team had the A flag they would be dead, now you're dead just trying to get to them.
Easily Hardhat or Mission. They're both good small maps. Village would probably be the best big map but I don't think it's anything special.
I hear Village from a few people. I like it, but it can be a bit campy/large in 6v6, people like to sit back in the cave. Fun Domination map. I like smaller maps coming back, as long as they're good.
I definitely think it's hard to make a large map that a lot of people like. In my opinion, large maps are much more catered to objective modes, especially like Dom and Demo. Case in point being downturn...great map as far as design goes, but it's marred by bad play in deathmatch games because no one knows where to go...great for things like Dom especially, and okay for something with focused objectives like TD or Demo.
there are definitely some maps that are only good for certain modes. I agree with you on Downturn, I think it is just fine for Domination, but TERRIBLE for TDM or FFA. Oasis works amazing on Dom too, not as good (but still decent) for other modes.
People love the small maps, understandably for the pace, but I like having large maps mixed in, like that snow map from MW2 with the trains (don't remember the name)
Derail? I've only played it a handful of times but it seems like an okay map. Estate seems like a really cool idea for a map but for some reason it isn't too fun to play.
Estate was a creepers paradise.
i love small chaotic maps so id go for dome
most people love those small maps, but compared to something like Nuketown, Dome is not good. Nuketown so much better. I like Hardhat better than Dome
Same--Hardhat over Dome any day...
Dont want to see old maps, played before on previous games, terminal is nothing short of a campfest like someone mentioned , every terminal game i get put on, every player seems to head for the rooftop, small maps for me personally are far better, less time for glitch scopers to get to comfy and small enough to keep corner huggers from hiding all the time,
The rooftop is a power position. Why wouldn't you go for it? Do you expect people to run up there, kill two people then hop off? Not go up there at all?
The only camping is corner camping. If you're sitting in the glass by the elevator, at the back of the plane around the corner, or behind the checkin desk, then that's a problem. I admit there are more spots for that type of corner camping than the MW3 maps. But "top red" is not a true camping spot.
Dome, Mission, Hardhat..I would be p!ssed if they brought back Downturn, they should just get rid of that map once and for all..but then again i can care less cause i have boycotted Call of Duty cause they never gave a sh!t about fixing the hit markers
Actually i find none of them memorable. Not even in the same leauge as any of the COD4-MW2 maps. So hopefully none. but if i HAD to pick 1..Then it would be interchange most likely.
Why are people saying Bakarra and Interchange? Those maps baffle me due to the massive size which equals more campers and the layouts are just bad... Bakarra=constant hardscoping due to long lines of sight down the street and mid map and interchange is a checkers board with debris everywhere... Id bring back Hardhat or Arkaden - both very balanced.
There's no such thing as hardscoping
lol if you use a sniper as it should, you won't get that many kills with it in Bakaara. I could get tons more kills with a sniper, "hardscoping", if they brought back Backlot or Countdown. Or even Overgrown and Pipeline for that matter. It means I could level up my snipers without taking an age when using them in TDM, KC and Domination (the latter two I only play in Barebones so far).
I'd rather they not bring back any maps but I'll take a brought back map if it's free. For the sake of the argument I'll vote Village as I can do quite well with a range of weapons.
i don't think they should have brought back terminal and I don't want to see past maps in future games. I love mw3. I know most don't. I like Hardhat, Mission, Dome, Seatown, Bakaara, and especially Village, but when I want to play them I will play MW3. In MW4 (or whatever they call it), I will want to play something new.
Half of the problem with the community is that people are constantly saying that this one isn't as good as the old one. IT NEVER IS. Nostalgia makes the old become a classic. Each game is different and should be.
That being said, I am looking forward to the new Nuketown map. ![]()

I was a huge fan of the COD4 maps they brought back to MW2. I think those maps made MW2 in the last few months before black ops. I still dont get why we got terminal for MW3. It was not that popular of a map back when MW2 was the top game. I thought a map like sub base or favela would have been a better choice.
But like i have said earlier. There are no stand out maps in MW3. I had picked interchange because it is the one map that flows well imo for most game modes. Thinking about it a little more and like someone else mentione hardhat. That is also a good choice. But nothing else from this game would i like to see again.
Throwing a new nuketown map in black ops is stupid. It was a good map for its game. But because it was the smallest map, is what made it popular. I think Blops 2 should have had a new small map designed for the new game instead of recycling one when the game is launched.
Nuketown was a great map though, not just bc it was small. Dome is the smallest map in MW3 and it's popular I guess for that reason, it gets picked a lot, but I doubt people would be excited about Dome coming back in IW's next game.
I TOTALLY agree on Favela and Sub Base being better than Terminal. I especially think Favela would have been a good fit for MW3.
Favela in MW3 would be just as bad as Seatown for corner camping.
Lol what if they put terminal (from MW3) into BO2.
None of them are worthy of a reboot.
Hey PS3ers! I really want to get you guy's opinion on how Terminal plays in MW3, and your opinion on MW3 maps!
BTW, I do own a PS3 and like to play MW3 on there sometimes, thinking of moving over for BLOPS 2, only issue is I need to get used to the controller, I mean I'm used to it, but not for COD
How about none. Why do people want to play old maps again? They ran their course let them die in peace. Bring on new maps, with the same old killing, can't wait.
I would personally love to see a Call Of Duty Online Only game come out consisting of every map from every CoD so far. The ability to go from one game on Arkaden (MW3) to Nuketown (Black Ops) to Rust and so on and so on would be amazing.
You'd of course be able to play the newest modes (Infected/Kill Confirmed/Drop Zone) on some of the oldest maps and the mixtures of era's would also be interesting.
The weapon choices and killstreak choices as well as emblem choices etc etc would be endless and mouth-watering.
Shame it'll never happen ey!
