The 5 Most Iconic Multiplayer Maps

MP1st - "Map and level design can make or break a multiplayer title, and a great killing field can transcend its game and become the stuff of legend."

Mine would have to be Inferno from CS.

Mister_V4565d ago

I know it might not yet be considered a "classic" since it's a fairly recent game, but I find some of the most rewarding experiences I've ever had winning a match was in a game of Rush on Arica Harbor in BFBC2!

JellyJelly4565d ago

Haven't played it enough to decide yet but many of the maps in Battlefield 3 already feel like instant classics.

Laxman4565d ago

Completely agree. Caspian Border will no doubt be considered a classic Battlefield map.

cs dust over cs assault ? cmoonn

Criminal4565d ago (Edited 4565d ago )

Dust, Inferno, and Assault are all iconic, but everyone has a different favorite. Inferno is my favorite map in all games.

Cosmit4559d ago

Yup there all iconic. I prefer Dust. Then inferno right after that.

caboose324565d ago

Vladplaya4565d ago

Well, 4-Infinite dropped the ball massively so don't worry.

Sgt_Slaughter67d ago (Edited 67d ago )

Not really. 4, 5, MCC, and Infinite are only remembered for their shortcomings and failures when the franchise was purely known for being a system seller and an all-time great. There's a reason 1, 2, 3, and Reach are looked back on fondly, and it's not because of nostalgia.

FinalFantasyFanatic67d ago

I don't know of anyone that speaks fondly of the later Halo games, I would like to play 5, but I know it's not good, and I'm just waiting on Infinite to hit my strike price. I played MCC a lot later after it came out, so must of those bugs/issues were gone by the time I played it.

To say it dropped the massively is just not true. Many in the community hold H5 as the best mp mechanics in the entire series and say its what 4 should've been. Its campaign was trash but the MP is Fantastic and many faces of the community still play today and it only made 500mill in the matter of months but sure it dropped the ball massively. 4 was hated due to all the changes at once. And CoD like feature and rightful get hate but it's campaign story was liked by a majority of ppl. 343 hasn't nailed ot 100% but they get 1 thing perfect but F up in other places. Infinite had a good campaign and design but the story was a mess. The MP improves upon what Halo 3 was and is what many ppl wanted to go back to but it lacked content severely. So massively aint the word. Dropping the ball massively is when it's pure trash and unplay/unenjoyable. Most ppl blind by nostalgia so soon as 1 thing aint the same its hated cause Halo set the bar so high
FYI reach was not that good.

Dead IP, time to invent something new.

kaos8967d ago

Maybe they can have ID or one of the COD studios help 343 with this series.

Halo-Pop like Gears Pop. Halo bowling. Halo Cooking Mama. There’s a reason why you won’t hear about them
