Bring Back 2CP Maps

I didn’t like 2CP, but don’t just throw 6 maps in the drain. Other games add more content. Overwatch like, let’s get rid of content :woman_facepalming:. What if the defenders had to protect a machine or something. And the attackers have to destroy it to move to the next location. This could increase the length of the game mode. Do something other than just delete maps from the game. Also, map vote is coming soon. So people can choose if they want to play on these maps. Playing on the maps every once in a while wouldn’t hurt.

If it’s trash and people don’t like it, it’s best they get rid of it.

It would. They’re not fun.

They have a college degree in game design, I do too. Getting rid of 6 maps, because you don’t know what to do, or just lazy, is crazy. That is a lot of development time thrown away. Just make a new game mode for the maps.

Call of Duty map design matter more than overwatch. Overwatch game modes force you to move around the map. Developers got more control of how the gameplay will feel. The maps not trash, the game mode is trash. You can lose in 2 minutes on 2CP maps, which does not feel good. All they have to do is. Make a game mode, that will increase the length of the match. So the defenders can not get “snow balled”. We could have 36 maps instead of 30.

You can also go to 6 rounds and tie. The mode was just bad. How fast you could lose was not the only problem.

That the whole mode revolved around essentially just pushing chokes is not fun. Even if you ignore the 2cp game mode rules, most of the maps barely allow you to take a single flank or angle because they basically all funneled your entire team through the same corridor.

The only half decent 2cp map was volskaya because it was slightly better in this regard.

And even then, because of how the maps are designed, defenders spawn advantage was so severe it just got annoying to even cap even after doing everything else correctly.

Clash sucks as a game mode, but at least the maps are actually pretty decent imo. That has a chance to be fixed. I don’t even know how you fix 2cp

and then make flashpoint with only 2 maps for years making it one of the most boring modes ever made and then do a trash version of 2cp destroying good design of the 2cp maps for a mode they abandoned in less than a year, had to be removed due how bad it is

Feels like they could rework them to play better rather than just trash them. Add more flank routes rather than just one to two ways for the attacking team to enter some areas. And readjust the defender spawn so its not as easy to perma-hold the last point, but not a free push for the attackers either.

Well they might as well bring them back and maybe rework 2cp in a way thats sort of like stadium then it could work I as well miss the maps but the game mode was annoying to play sometimes

Even with the glaring issues the 2CP had, I absolutely love the mode and maps (for the most part). Paris is probably the worst offender, but they all need at LEAST a rework of the first point, and some, like Hanamura and Anubis, need some extra work on second, but I don’t think that the mode itself is inherently bad.

If there’s going to be map voting there’s 0 reason not to bring it back.

I mean, we’ll probably never get to play it still - but it should be there.

Exactly bring back every map that got removed and maybe rebalance them a bit but if we dont like them we can just vote them off the island

Off topic but how would one go about starting in this field?

It is something that I am very interested in and don’t really know where to begin :confused:

I love the 2CP maps but the layout needs work. Its too easy for one team or the other to completely dominate the map. I think they need reworks and make them 3CP maps :sunglasses:

Fully agreed… I pointed out that OW2 removed just as many maps as it added at release, making the initial net gain of map content just +1. Sequel indeed. I also predicted that blizzard would take the maps they removed, and rework them in lieu of actual new map content, which they have started doing with Hanamaura.

2cp wouldn’t be so bad if it went for how awful the second point was. But they never seemed to be able to change that, and they doubled down with that awful gameplay with last points of clash. Which thankfully is being removed from comp. 2cp is in arcade where it belongs at this point. Not as a main game mode.

2CP maps were some of the best. Tons of classic OW moments and memories are from that mode. I think they were just unpopular with uncoordinated players, but I loved trying to find ways to crack a tough, static defense.

I wished they add this in unranked modes. Maybe they could add in comp now that map voting is going to come. Not sure how it works.

I really love the Assault maps. They have great aesthetics and nostalgia. The mode is fine for quick-play, much better than some of the others, imo.

You predicted what they told us they were going to do :sob:

I would gladly take 2CP back, in its OW1 form, if it meant never having to play Clash or Flashpoint again.
