Some COD map thoughts

I have my likes and dislikes of the various maps, but, that aside, I've been noticing a few things about certain maps.

Sub Base: Most of the game takes place on the "A" side and the middle/middle rofftops.  The C side seems to be almost pointless except in Domination.  I think it is a flaw in the design of the map.  The shooting lanes on the back of the C side are not very good, and the roof-tops seems more exposed than they do on the other side.  I think if you could get onto the roof of the C flag building, that would make a big difference, but you can't.  Also, what's up with the tank on that map?  Even looking into the distance outside of the map, what the hell good is a tank doing there?

Wasteland: One thing I can say about this map is that it does not always play the same way.  Sometimes it's a snipe-off.  Sometimes it's ring around the rosie.  Other times it's king of the hill where the tunnel is the hill.  it has under-utilized areas too, like the church, but somehow, it doesn;tmatter as much on this map.

Karachi:  What happened to the building over A?  The first couple of weeks of the game, it was a focal point, now it's barely used.  And the building behind the bus?  This map mostly takes place in the center of it.  I have tried "holding down" some outer areas, but there is little point.  No one goes there.

Estate:  This map has gotten better over time.  it used to be about the house, the whole house and nothing but the house.  Now I have even played games where the transformers section was a hot spot.  It's a pretty good map overall.  Lots of ways around.  And, oh yeah, it has a house!  How cool!

Scrapyard:  I think this map had some real thought put into it.  it is both symmetrical (outer ring) and asymmetrical (center).  That's a pretty cool achievement.  I also like it because the games on that map are usually really fast-paced and killstreaks can be had in the span of a few seconds.

Afghan:  Once you lock down C, this is a great team-work/shooting lanes map.  I have also seen B locked down really well.  A is a little tougher, but any map that has two reasonably defensible areas is a good map in my book..

Maybe some more observations later.  That's it for now.  :)
