I'd like for a return of the old maps

Me too, and while we’re at, just remove Push, and the new control maps and the new crap we got this season

Ty :wink:

If they add back 2cp I think this is an excellent suggestion.

True, 2nd point is kinda hard on the attacking team because of spawns, and all they had to fix was respawn timers, dunno why they gotta toss it in the trash

the maps were fine.

It was attacker’s spawn B that needed to be located further forward on the maps and things woulda gone just fine.

Only thing I could see needing an adjustment would be for Temple of anubis requiring the arch to be adjusted and the perch removed. So nobody could sit up there and spawn snipe.

The maps were fine for 99% of the community

Same, but I also loved Paris. It’s my third favorite map behind Blizzard World and King’s Row.

2CP feels like core OW to me, so I wish the devs hadn’t given into the complaining from people who refuse to coordinate (in a team-based game about coordination). They’re all great maps.

Fundamentally speaking, the game and all its intricacies change often. In fact, the argument could be made that the game changes so often, that understanding it’s change (aka the meta) in addition to these “fundamentally unsound” maps is just part of the strategy.

And I hate to also make the argument, but regardless of the map, the map in play effects both teams equally, similar to how the problem of players disconnecting, leaving the game in an unbalanced 4v5. In the long run, due to it’s randomness, should effect the player base in the same manner.

Hence, saying the maps don’t fundamentally work (by who? Blizzard, the professionals?) yet ironically have so many “balance” patches and the controversy over “how little the devs know”, should only highlight that they too may be wrong about these maps.

LET US PLAY THOSE MAPS COMPETIVELY. Some of my fondest memories and best/most fun matches have been on them.

Why let a small% of the community allow for so much great content of the game to be excluded?

Or how about AT LEAST implementing a simple map vote system?

By Blizzard, professionals, and every high level player who fundamentally understood that the mechanics of 2CP do not work in OW competitively. Basically anyone who can look at the game mode objectively can easily see the fundamental flaws that ruin it as a competitive mode. It is as competitive as CTF or Deathmatch which is why it is relegated to the Arcade.

It does not matter the meta or the situation OW was fundamentally not built on a mode where a round can end in 2 fights. As long as ultimates exist it creates a fundamental problem that they could not rectify.

Bring back the old maps

I just played on Temple of Anubis and it was awesome

Video games are supposed to add content, not remove it.

Bring back the old maps to comp
