It's a fun map. A lot of action in the middle with plenty of room to flank and get behind the enemy. Not to big and not to small. Just a good all around map in my opinion.
It's an ok map, and i'll play it, but i hate it when i play it, back out of the lobby to grab a drink etc, come back, next lobby is raid, back out, next lobby is raid! lol!
it seems to be getting so much play lately on every game type......like every third game we play raid 2 times, play 3 more on different maps then back to raid two times......its not a bad map, but please can we mix it up a little bit. at least were not getting hijacked nearly as much anymore
I have noticed though some nights i'll play some maps over and over again, and i wont even see some in the rotation. Then other nights it flips, i'll end up playing slums over and over one night, raid over and over the next!
That pool sucks. Lol. I hate getting shot at while i'm in it because you can't run OR go prone. Which is why I now avoid going into it at all costs.
I wish the dead bodys would just float in the water hehe
its not bad at all, all i want is more variety, ill go days at a time without seeing certain maps
everybody likes it because theres just a giant circle of headglitch spots at the outmost part of the map and theres no counter headglitch spots to fight the almost untouchable and sometimes completely hidden douchebags.
If you get in the right lobby, you can do extremely well; if you can find a way to flank your enemies you're set for the game, and a lot of weapons are good; SMGs in the middle, Shotguns in the buildings, Snipers/ARs down by the pool. The spawns are great, the positions for flags, hardpoints, domination points, etc. are well-placed, and there are no good camper/head glitch spots. I got my remington gold on it, too ![]()

Raid sucks but its the best! Interesting oxymoron,
It's a fun map. Good spots for all gun types. And please stop with the "head glitch" crap. if you can't kill these people by now, that's on you!
So glad im not the only one. I hate raid. I put it right next to aftermath. When i see 10 votes on it, i say WHY? It always gets voted for some reason, but i just leave the lobby
thats how i am with highjacked unless i JIP a winning game
Raid is one of the few maps with any size to it, and caters to AR users/snipers/LMGs over shotguns and to an extent SMGs. Even though you can still do very well with an SMG on this map and any map really. Still, its a range map, and the spawns are actually good on it, hard to flip, and each side is well developed. Yeah you can get some headglitchers in the rock garden, but if you get killed by them more than once its your fault not theirs. Of the launch maps, its one of the best made, right up there with Standoff. You might hate it, but that doesn't change the fact its a good map and will continue to garner votes.
Raid is just one of the best maps, even now with the DLC. Every gun can hold its own, whether it's an AR, SMG, sniper, shotgun, you can find a place to do well. Also the map is designed so that it has no camping spots (you'll obviously find some campers, but they're much easier to deal with or avoid)
Standoff seems to be getting far more votes for me on tdm, maybe the game mode affects peoples preference.
I think you misspelled "hijacked". It is not spelled "r-a-i-d".
I not my favorite board but not my least either- that title goes to Grind for me.

standoff is still kiing IMO. even with the DLC.
My favorite too. Has something for everybody- range players, rushers, etc.
i really like express but most are pretty average at best, even express is pretty lame compared to Oasis from MW3 or Dome or Gulch or Village or any map from MW3 for that matter lol
Raid makes for interesting CTF matches, Turbine on the other hand has got to be one of the worstmap designs of any COD title.
I like raid and standoff the best up to now, not been playing that long though, but I hate turbine, I always get my arse handed to me on a plate by snipers!!!,
Your FAL is a great anti-sniping tool. If facing snipers that like to hunker down in the shadows, throw a target finder on there (don't listen to any grief) and you will not worry about it again. I always keep a class with this setup for this very reason (or SMR).
Great for headshots too.
Raid is fun just to many snipers but its fun to flank the Campers/Headglitchers and listen to them rage ![]()
