    That is quite a bit of the problem...these maps were designed with Consoles in mind primarily, with max server sizes in the 12-16-ish range.

    We on PC are trying to force more people into them than they were meant to handle, thus things become too "spammy" and often frustrating for many people. Hard habit to break though, as many of us are used to wanting to play on full servers (24-30 or more) from other games in the past.

      Exactly.

      My clan thought we were going to run a big server and couldn't understand why us "early adopters" kept talking about the funner, "small" games... Then, they tried out the 36 --> 50 slot configs and understood.

      There are some great user-created maps which could run a 50 slot config without an issue. I hope that IW takes the best of those maps and makes them official.

        Actually my fav/least fav maps have changed considerably.I put this down to me actually getting to know the maps, finding the "hot spots" etc.

        For example i hated bloc when i first started playing the game.
        I hated constantly spawning moving ten foot only to be sniped .Now with my better understanding of the map i am able to play and have fun on the map basicly because i now know the sniper spots and can counter them.

        Wet Works was another i did nt like but now with a "slightly" improved skill level i can do ok on that map therefore it has become ok imo lol

        The one map i still do not like to this day is Bog.
        This may be down to the fact i play on my clans 30 slot server (which is probably way too many for the map) ,
        the spawn camping is the worst in the game here imho
        and there is constant Heli/ airstrike activity with nowhere to hide.

        I find myself being killed by airstrike, spawn behind the wall to be naded at spawn, respawn in same spot and die per heli, then its a case of repeat, repeat,repeat.

        So after that awfully long rant lo to sum up - I hate Bog .
        hope that was detailed enough for you crunch lol.

          Hmm, I'm going to have to say Bog, Downpour, and Shipment (with 8+ players).

          Bog = Very limited cover, encourages grenade spam.
          Downpour = Two major MG's, encourages spraying/grenade spam.
          Shipment (8+) = No space to do anything, spawn kill, etc.

          Favorites:

          Crash = Very balanced, numerous routes to get to an area.
          Strike = Bigger map, once again a lot of routes when compared to other maps.

            LOL, just teasing. Yeah, that was good

            Bog is rough when you get that many people on it. I find about 12 is it for that map. Anymore and you just get a mess.

              Most maps are stupid with more than 12 people on them.

              Some, very few, can actually work with lots of people. Vacant and Overgrown are two of them. Pipeline as well.

              Some maps like Crossfire and Bog look like they can take loads of people, because they are big.

              Countdown is fifty fifty. Sometimes it can take lots of people.

              But they have such small choke points that nothing more than 5 or 6 a team is playable.

              And yet people INSIST on playing them. And playing TDM. Over and over.

              My local low ping servers are all 24 players. 12 per team. Absolute madness on some maps.

                  Bog in COD4 sizes is big though, I understand what you mean though, zatar wetlands/ kashan form PR and shuibiaiatisbiaiaiaititibiaia-whatever from 2142 was just slap in the face huge.

                  *** I figured the other day that you could fit shipment into the karkand warehouse flag with room to spare***

                  Still I find it funny that in bog you always have 2 teams per team,

                  you always get that squad of 8 or so people huddling around the buildings and the remainder of the team fighting for the right hand side containers. containers or building that's all you get, well for good reason I suppose since the middle is plain deadly.

                  Overgrown is a mystery to me, Its not like its all that much bigger then other maps yet there is barely any spam on 54 player servers. I think maybe the abundance of routes into the enemies side and the ability to actually walk through the river make it good. If they had put in water I don't think the map would have worked at all.

                    Shuhia Taiba - largest map in any game I've seen.

                    CoD4 maps are just different shades of the term "small". You can walk from one part of the map to the other in about 30 seconds on most maps :laugh:

                      That Shuhia map was too big.. Even my Zeller couldn't handle that...

                      And the part what i hated the most was when you bailed out from transport heli what is just about to explode. It takes half of the round to get back to the civilization(unless you suicide or some magical way someone picks you up with jeep thingy or with helo)..

                          ahh but that map was so nice for my attack heli ramming, claimed at least 12 attack choppers to my transports on that map alone.

                          Still that map was only fun with real friends imo, we would always crack up as we did something stupid and if we did bail we always got a lift of one another.

                          plus, I almost forgot, that huge round white building was where it was at, always landing transports on there and the fights under there were really quite fun. And the silo sniping, but with stocks, zell3r is tEh $uX0rz :p
