Tried but it wont leave me enter a redeem code :S and i have the points baught

ugglasdav · 01-02-2011 01:09PM

just after playing stadium and berlin wall. in most parts of the map on stadium its CQC. i managed to get a chopper gunner on it and it is really easy to kill people. alot of the spawn points are outside so it was easy getting those triple kills as they spawn. i found berlin wall very campie. its about the size of array. i played one game there and most poeple spend there time hanging out windows. there is alot of buildings to go up to and pick people of with a sniper. there is also a horn that goes of quite abit troughtout the game.

Why the extra month does anyone know?
Christ they love screwing ps3/pc users hard.

swampyk08 · 01-02-2011 03:43PM

Just had a few games over lunch:

Berlin Wall - Lots of buildings and roads. Snipers will love it.
Kowlown - Lots of alleys and high vantage points. Picking em off on the zip line never gets boring.
Discovery - Big, but not open like Array.
Stadium - Couldnt get on the ice rink apart from that a good fast paced map.

Oh yeah the no mans land in Berlin Wall is a pain - tried running through it with lightweight pro and marathon pro and only made it halfway. Figured out that smoke will stop the turrets from shooting at you.

basically so far

Kowloon- Only played once but really enjoyable

Stadium- not the biggest fan of this, it was marketed as a run and gun map but it's just not, so many camping spots and people showing up behind you, it may grow on me but so far don't like it much.

Berlin Wall- only played this once as well but wasn't as good as I was expecting. I snipe a lot and I did very well on it but it lacks excitement, the map is just too segregated and action is sporadic, there is also one spot that's a gap in the wall that everyone was fighting over and a lot of camping the stairs going up to it ensued.

Discovery- probably my favourite and definitely my most played of the new maps, really like everything about it although I seen a lot of very cheap camping on it and that will probably get worse as people learn the spots. There are plenty of sniper spots but also a lot of cover for rushers so you can do well with either

also lack of a new maps playlist is annoying...

Soby · 01-02-2011 04:02PM

I ran through it like a big hard man thinking I was untouchable with my ghost pro
