    My favourite would be Array, almost always have a good game there. Any other opinions? I know how hard it is to choose one :D

    Harder than getting the fecking game to connect:)

    I picked WMD.Always play good on it and its a good map to do circuits around without going near the middle


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,932 ✭✭✭YouSavedMyLife


    Voted Cracked. Probably the most unique map in the game. Love the destroyed buildings in the centre surrounded by two roads on each side then more smaller built up areas again after the roads. Makes for some really nice in and out of building combat :D


  • Registered Users Posts: 410 ✭✭TaytoCrisps


    Ive gotten some of my best kill/death ratios on cracked but nuketown has to get my votes for the pace of action ! reminds me a bit of shipment back in MW :D


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,143 ✭✭✭bubbleking


    my top 3 are Nuketown, Array and firing range in that order


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,825 ✭✭✭Mikeyt086


    I went with Summit. Fast paced but not cramped.

    Honorable mention to Grid and Radiation for me, I dont really like Firing Range but cant say im surprised to see it do so well, always gets voted and re-voted.

    Firing Range followed by WMD for me. I absolutely despise Nuketown.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,183 ✭✭✭UnknownSpecies


    For me, it's launch! I love playing demolition there, the interactivity with the doors adds a more fun and adds to the game tactically, I like :)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,686 ✭✭✭Kersmash


    Summit or Grid.


  • Site Banned Posts: 26,456 ✭✭✭✭Nuri Sahin


    Summit


  • Moderators, Computer Games Moderators Posts: 10,399 Mod ✭✭✭✭F1ngers


    Voted for Jungle - had a 30-3 win there(FFA)...:D

    Nuketown is a mad level too, great fun.

    It depends on the game type but overall I would say radation. The map is the right size for objective based games and tdm.
    Nuketown is my favorite for tdm followed by firing range.


  • Registered Users Posts: 410 ✭✭TaytoCrisps


    Forgot about Jungle and Firing range, up there is my favourites as well . Villa on the other hand... do not care for that map :mad:


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,278 ✭✭✭x43r0


    Between array and jungle for me but went with array.

    When playing dom on array if you spawn at A, run over towards B and stand behind the rock by the base of the tower with a sniper and scope up to the window overlooking B flag. Loads of guys rush to that window from C, i've gotten multiple doubles, triples and multi kills there.

    Those guys in the window will be looking at B flag or up at the platform on the tower. If they do look your way they'll only have your head to aim for


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,692 ✭✭✭shawpower


    I have to say I'm a bit surprised to see Nuketown and Firing Range being joint top. Firing range isn't bad for some furious action games, but Nuketown is just a joke of a map. The spawns on it are horrendous, and if you don't have a 4 bar connection you're screwed.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 3,604 ✭✭✭Kev_ps3


    Nuketown = scrubby noob map


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,732 ✭✭✭Magill


    Its a good laugh tbh, been having some epic private matches on it. Without a doubt, blops private settings are a million times better than MW2 !! Loving it.

    Dolphin diving out the windows never gets old !


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,591 ✭✭✭raheny red


    Radiation, it's the easiest for spawn raping and I always get a friendly fire double kill at the start :cool:

    Thats radiation with the doors. Launch is the one where the rocket launches near the end.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,053 ✭✭✭jimbling


    Voted for Array. I win a lot of my games there. Only level I can successfully use my stealth class (m16 silenced+ghost pro), which I enjoy a lot.

    Very close behind it are Jungle and WMD.

    Cracked is probably my least favourite level.


    Nuketown being top of that list is making me feel a bit sick. Ya, it can be fun in private matches, or split screen with your buddies, but for any regular online (FFA,TDM etc) the map is just ridiculous. It certainly depresses me that it is considered one of the best maps.

    Out of interest, if we're going to have a Best Map in Black Ops, can we have a Worst Map in Black Ops?? I have a feeling Nuketown would top that poll too.

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 28,710 ✭✭✭✭Paully D


    I originally picked Firing Range but I think I'd have to change to Radiation now that I've been doing very, very well on it.


  • Registered Users Posts: 160 ✭✭LukeQuietus


    I'm glad my vote put Firing Range above Nuketown just there. I'm so F'ING SICK OF NUKETOWN!!! Everyone picks it just because even a blundering moron with a pistol will probably rack up more kills there than on any other map. It's fine every once in a while or if you're doing challenges and need a crap load of kills quick but not EVERY BLOODY TIME! Pick something else for christ sake! One day I played 12 games in a row on it cuz I had no choice. In the end I just ended the damn games when that map came up and they stopped voting for it for a while.

    I like Firing Range for the numerous sniper perches and if you get bored of that you can have fun running around like normal. Array used to be like that but now I can never get any peace on the tower for long enough. I got torn apart on Radiation today so not liking that too much.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,456 ✭✭✭Jev/N


    I like Radiation for objective games, Firing Range for all types. Launch is pretty good too


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,356 ✭✭✭NeVeR


    I voted Nuketown.. love the madness. But i do like Summit as well.


  • Moderators, Technology & Internet Moderators Posts: 17,135 Mod ✭✭✭✭cherryghost


    Nuketown and Firing range? WTF

    Firing range is terrible


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,942 ✭✭✭Mac daddy


    Summit for me followed by Jungle and then Radiation.

    Nuketown is by far the worst map just as bad as Rust in fact I would rather play Rust over nuketown.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 656 ✭✭✭smokie2008


    Summit aaaaaaaaaaal the way, jungle foooooking wrecks my head

    voted nuketown , just for the reason you dont have to look that far for kills , firing range is also a nice map .

    I voted for villa I do my best there and I think it's a great size not to big like jungle or not to small like nuketown


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 6 gell32


    love sumit,,, firing rang and grid,,, radiation is one of the best domination maps in cod history:)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,137 ✭✭✭Balfie


    I love Havana, it has a mix of wide open spaces, and closed spaces, with the one road down the middle, spawn locking on the map is good, but if ya get spawn locked in the map its very hard to get out of, a good team on your side and you are gonna win..

    Nuketown is another of my fav's, fast paced, and never stops. Its a great map.

    I hate Array, and WMD, far too big, can go around for way too long looking for people and find no one, only to walk upon someone camping an get killed only to start all over again..


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,662 ✭✭✭RMD


    Cracked for me. I don't know why but I really love urban style warfare. It reminds me of Ambush which was by far my favorite map on CoD4, a mix of close combat and also long open straights which many spots to snipe / sharp shoot from.

    Nuketown is my love / hate map. Great map when having a good game but if you're playing a good team it's pretty easy to be absolutely raped.

    played Cracked last night a few times with HC/HQ got some crazy kills , my best was 53 k 12 d , also i stole 2 crates from enemies , 1 had doggies the other had chopper gunner:D


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 830 ✭✭✭Robby91


    Nuketown is definitely my favourite (24/7 servers FTW! :P)

    After that, WMD and Launch would probably be my next favourites - WMD has such nice variety in the location 'types' (can't think of a better way to phrase it) to suit just about every weapon type, and Launch is pretty awesome for getting (fairly) up close and personal, and little feck-acting around with hiding in some obscure little hole. And the rocket reminds me of some of the cool Kismet sequences in UT3 :D

    Not a big fan of Cracked/Hanoi though - I don't hate them so much that I'd leave a game just to get away from them, but there's windows everywhere and there's always some fecker in one of them :mad:


  • Registered Users Posts: 506 ✭✭✭D_turbo


    Love WMD , Jungle and Launch,

    Not a fan of hanoi and crisis tbh, hate crisis


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 711 ✭✭✭dammitjanet


    Never had a bad match on Nuketown- it's mental and there's no camping. Just pure fun.
    Also love Jungle and Launch


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 850 ✭✭✭SoulTrader


    Summit for me, closely followed by Launch.

    Nuketown is alright once in a while, have really gotten to dislike Firing Range though.

    Crisis is just a horrible stupid map :mad:

    Not surprised to see the 3 smallest maps top the poll.

    I voted firing range, but I really like them all. Black Ops has to be the first FPS that I have not hated a single map.

    Agree with all that. Summit I mentioned before in this thread is easily my favorite(one of my all time favorite maps). Remi mentioned the other day I just own the map. Never had a bad game on it. Say I average a 3 K/D on it. Launch would be the next best for me.

    I'm sick and tired of Firing Range too. It really grates me when it's chosen, which it is every single blooming time unless Nuketown is an option. Nuketown is alright is sporadic bursts as you eluded too.

    Nuketown? No camping? Try playing Free for All there, you will honestly cry :D

    What strange realm are you playing Black Ops in? I find there's always some b*st*rd camping in Nuketown - there's the green house garage, the side door of the yellow house garage, at the concrete yoke being the green house, lying prone on the ground staring out the upstairs bedroom doors, hiding behind the desks in the first room upstairs in either house...

    The f***ers in the bedrooms are a bloody great target for crossbows and lethal grenades though :D

    There may very well be more, but the amount of people I find camping in the above areas is infuriating. The c*nts will just stay there until their team's spawn location changes to the other side of the map, then they take up a new camping spot :mad:

    It's way more fun to push forward and get stuck into a proper fight rather than "durr durr, i cn kil dem ez!" - I'd love to know what kind of person finds camping enjoyable, I'd say it's about as entertaining as fishing :pac:

    Firing range for me.It,s just the right size,not too big not too small.I always seem to rack up decent scores on that map.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 13,666 ✭✭✭✭sryanbruen


    Nuketown!!!!


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,582 ✭✭✭NoviGlitzko


    Ha, this thread was dead for nearly 5 years. Anyway, Summit was the best map in the game IMO, followed by Firing Range. This game had great maps. Nuketown is a disaster though.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 13,666 ✭✭✭✭sryanbruen


    If this included DLCs, I'd probably put Stadium
