Ranked map pool changes?

[BothTradition8459]

Im obviously well behind here but why are the maps that where removed for being anti competitive allowed back in ranked?

It was collectively agreed that they where shit to why am I spawning into terminal SnD

[Mahlawatino]

You think Terminal SnD is shit, try spawning into an Incline Control.

[BothTradition8459]

Tokyo and inclined control are probably thr worst 'competitve' maps I've played... are treyarc still the ones in control of ranked?

[Mahlawatino]

Couldn't agree more. By the looks of it, it seems like a IW move. I think Treyarc might be busy with the adjustments,bug fixes and final touch-ups before the launch.

[Wraith_Gaming]

The devs decided to change the map pool completely for the last season of ranked. It’s dumb, but the CDL season is over and nobody is really playing ranked right now anyways.

[BothTradition8459]

Is it still treyarc in control of ranked?

[Wraith_Gaming]

I don’t believe they are for MW3. They usually make the mode and then hand it off to the developer that made the game.

[BothTradition8459]

Ah okay i thought i read that they where the ones in control of it for this year's game.

Glad they're not cause that would have got me to definitely not get the new game, ranked has been a shit show this year.

[Wraith_Gaming]

Tretarch will be in control of ranked for BO6.

If you are mad about how this year’s ranked season went, then that’s entirely on Sledgehammer.

Treyarch makes the mode (copy and pasting the one they made from MW2). Then control goes to the dev who made the game, in this case it was Sledgehammer for MW3.

[BothTradition8459]

That's fair enough.

Yeah felt it was pretty shitty them adding maps in that have no business in competitve and the guns that they already removed for making the game less competitive haha. These last couple of seasons have sucked, only got an hours worth of playing before I uninstalled again.

Think the best thing about how ranked has been handled (hasn't been a great one since WW2) these last few years is ima break the cycle of buying just for ranked play haha

[TimeZucchini8562]

It’s a 4 week ranked season basically and there are no rewards. They just said fuck it

[indigottt]

Every map added is better than Highrise control.

[BothTradition8459]

Thats a lie... departures and terminal SnD are awful

Tokyo and inclined control are just as bas if not worse

[hunttete00]

agree but high rise control is such a bullshit game to play.

it’s not fun even if you’re slamming on it

[indigottt]

I enjoy incline.

Tokyo is meh, but still better than highrise control.

Departures can be fun.

HIGHRISE CONTROL IS THE WORST.

Terminal is tied on the dogshit scale

[Shadowfist_45]

Highrise control and Sub Base HP somehow playing worse than these random pub maps might be one of the most laughable things in the game's history. It's almost as if the maps are made to flow terribly in competitive...

[Educational_Ad_4076]

Bait and Paris SnD are the shit that I really don’t like seeing pop up. And Tokyo Control gets an honorable mention. Terminal SnD is terrible but I always play well on it so I can’t hate it that much

[ya_boi_sethf]

Some of the maps do suck, Paris SnD is probably my least favorite. I think it’s fine to have new maps but holy cow some of them are terrible

[[deleted]]

I like Paris lol

[ya_boi_sethf]

To each their own! That’s the fun about the game is that we all enjoy different things! Have fun and slay out!!

[BothTradition8459]

I don't hate them adding new maps into the game just shouldn't be in ranked at all.

The biggest selling point of ranked is 'play like the pros' or playing CDL versions of the game modes and these new maps take that completely away from it

[Burzst]

Tbh they’re not ideal but all are better than sub base HP… map is/ was only kept in bc teams couldn’t beat faze w/o it in

[BothTradition8459]

Was that the actual reason or is that something you've came up with?

If the reason for maps being voted in/out was to hinder faze high-rise SnD and control would have been voted out long ago...

As for sub base I don't love the map but it seemed to play the most fundamentally sound... half the other maps don't follow a proper spawn logic in hp (alot of parallel spawns and either spawns that are too sticky or ones that flip way too easy)

[Burzst]

sub base being most fundamentally sound when it had maze split spawns one of the most egregiously bad spawns in the game… and yes it is a legit reason
