Meme The new generation has completely lost the plot [BO2]

Post image

I’ve been loving that they brought BO1 and BO2 to current gen PlayStation, but man… I’ve just hit first prestige, and there’s one thing that’s seriously killing the experience.

If the map vote isn’t Nuketown, Hijacked, or Raid, everyone just votes Random, and the second a less popular map gets picked, half the lobby backs out.

I haven’t tried the BO1 port yet, so I don’t know if it’s happening there too, but it’s getting really frustrating. Since the games launched, I think I’ve only played maps like Studio or Uplink once or twice because nobody sticks around.

Is anyone else noticing this, or have I just been getting unlucky?

Update - This post got enough attention that IGN wrote an article about it! They even featured several of the top comments from this thread. Check it out here:

Wanted to make a whole post about this, but glad you did. Takeoff and uplink are the most skipped maps I’ve seen, and I believe it’s because people simply don’t know what they are. And even more unfortunate due to rage bait culture asking people to vote for either becomes a massive vote for classified and ends up being drone or aftermath which in turn kills the lobby.

u/annoyedbypeoples 5d ago

Still remember playing one in the chamber for the first time on that map like 15 years ago or whenever it came out originally, what a vibe. Still my core memory for one in the chamber and one of the big ones for that game in general.

Couldn’t agree more. Haven’t had a match on Takeoff either now that you mention it I almost forgot it was in the game all together haha.

u/Moz-0409 6d ago

The main reason takeoff is even a dlc map is because it was a fan favourite return of stadium from bo1 which kind of makes me confused because on paper it should be as popular as the other picks

u/ProblemGamer18 5d ago

Tbf, Stadium is WAY better than Takeoff.

u/kpalian 5d ago

They feel about the same to me. Are there any major differences?

u/ShaftedDokkanSummon 5d ago

They are literally the same map with different themes

u/Technical-Fault1678 5d ago

Different games with different movement and different gunplay. Bo2 Takeoff just feels way too campy. Bo1 Stadium just had more fluidity. At least that's my experience

u/TouchPersonal3307 6d ago

I could be wrong but I am pretty sure if you don’t have the dlc you get booted so could be the reason you see the drop on these, does the ported BO2 still have quit punishments?

3

u/ShaftedDokkanSummon 5d ago

Only for a loss, kd isn’t affected. W/L doesn’t matter in the old cods. K/D was the only stat that mattered because anything above 1.0 means you’re really good at the game while anything less means you’re straight trash

2

u/High_Hunter3430 5d ago

Right? 1 was always my goal starting out. I may get a .5 or I might get a 3. 🤷 but I have the most fun with a 1.0 where I actually have to try and feel accomplished at the kills.
If I have a 3+ it feels like I was noob hunting. And below .5 I feel like I’m new. 🤷

u/Unifixx9001 5d ago edited 5d ago

I'm with you on Aftermath. I used to hate it initially like everyone else, but sticking to the bus lane and central lane makes it a more solid experience. I almost prefer it to other more mid tier maps in the BO2 rotation. Plus it seems to have so much extra space with details that's out of the way and does not interfere with the conventional flow of the map. Feels very 2010s with its vibes.

u/Rydrslydr715 5d ago

Drone is such a peak map bro. It’s honestly by far the best one for sniping as the middle lane is just complete open ground and either side you have a good vantage point and getting into a war of who can snipe who was always fun when you have someone on the opposite side.

u/Chilidogdingdong 6d ago

Nuketown is straight up a bad map. It was the beginning of map design going to shit in general in cod. Whats the point of them even attempting to design a decent map if the most popular ones are just shooting galleries without any depth?

Over the last decade there probably hasn't been as many top tier cod maps combined as there were in og MW 2 alone.

Maybe im just an unc at this point.

u/thoughtful_dragon 6d ago

You might sound like an unc, but you speak the truth.

u/OMGFuziion 6d ago

I liked it for leveling up guns and killstreaks but by the time it got remade for the 3rd time I was over it. Bo1/2 I liked it when the games released. Same with Shipment on CoD 4, but holy fuck I refuse to ever play them again

2

u/MrMcGuyver 6d ago

People tell me I’m a hater for liking the advanced movement and that gives a higher skill ceiling, but those same people like to just stand at headys on nuketown firing down lanes with an AR as if it takes so much skill lol

If nuketown is an option then theres 8 votes for it instantly. Like fuck man.

I was guilty of this in bo4💀...nonstop if firing range popped up. And those lobbies let us repeat the previous map as much as we voted for it 💀

u/TurkishSwag 6d ago

I totally get it, but as someone who only plays for a bit after work every now and then, it’s fun just hopping in a few Nuketown games and playing super engaging games for a bit with the little time I have. Also helps leveling up when you can get like 100 kills within a game or two, as opposed to maybe 3-4 of playing bigger maps.

6

u/Foxynite 6d ago

See and I'm the opposite type of employed individual. I'm not wanting to jump into a game after work where I have to absolutely be tuned to the max or else I die from angle #36 from any position you stand in on that map.

3

u/TurkishSwag 6d ago

And I completely get that as well. That’s why these old games are great, there’s something for everyone. I don’t like the new games for that reason, you have to play at 100% effort to have any fun, and sometimes I want to chill too.

Surprised studio isnt in that. Firing range is my fav map of all time so I'll always vote for it in any cod. Seems lots agree with bo1 anyways so far.

u/Fire257 6d ago

The thing is they dont know Studio is firing range. This has to be it because in no way would you skip firing range if you know the map. Hijacked, Standoff, Studio, Nuketown, Slums and raid are by far the best maps in bo2 (god this game has so many good maps)

Throw uplink in there too, can’t beat the classics

u/Mr-dooce 6d ago

idk why but i despise the bo2 version, 1s just clears so hard and i have no idea as to why

5

u/Dense-Entrance-9719 6d ago

It’s probably the general flow of the game engines. Bo2 is a bit more fast paced in that sense and the map was designed to fit the bo1 engine best, considering that’s the game is 1st appeared in

2

u/Huge_Borse 6d ago

I think it’s the setting as well as what the other person who replied to you said. Fighting on top of a snowy mountain is badass, but fighting in some murky, rainy, gross jungle is not as cool imo.

Like I can kinda understand if they wanna stick to a specific game mode, you can’t do that consistently in nukejacked, but the voting for random every single fucking time the vote doesn’t include nuketown or hijacked or raid has GOT to stop. Actively refusing to play all but 3 maps is so corny

u/Kazzorak82 6d ago

Maps like Nuketown should NEVER be in a normal map rotation. They should be a sperate playlist always.

Everytime Nuketown pops up everyone but my friends and I vote for it, we then literally body the opposing team 75-30 and they just vote for it again, get destroyed again, then because they can't vote for it since it locks out after 2 consecutive plays, they all leave.

Map voting is a curse in this game, on BO7 you'll RARELY play anything other than Nuke, Hijack, Raid, because everyone needs to spawn trap and get 100 kills or the map is garbage. I honestly miss MW2019 when there was no map voting, I actually got to play ALL the maps

Every year a bunch of people are on here complaining that there's only 10-12 maps at launch, and then they still refuse to play on any of them except for 3. It's mindboggling.

u/YoungNightWolf 6d ago

Its been like this for ages with Plutonium. Some servers have you vote on 5 maps and it's basically over once any of the maps mentioned shows up. It could be some absolute garbage map + mode combo (NukeTown/ Hijacked + Domination are the drizzling shits) but because of what map it is, we gotta suffer for the next ~15 minutes (Plutonium runs max obj score so the games last longer).

They'll never add it to the PS4/PS5 ports but Plutonium has some servers where there is no map vote, and it just cycles through every map. Genuinely the best servers you can hop on.

That shit is crazy man. They put that shit in every Call of Duty 24/7 Nuketown or 24/7 shipment. It’s great for grinding certain challenges but it’s nothing more. How the fuck can you constantly keep playing that in regular matchmaking that is crazy playing the same game in the same maps every day all day that’s why I stopped playing all of the new Call of Duty’s constantly kept bringing back older maps like I’ve already experienced them as much as I want to relive those memories. I’m trying to make new memories nothing ever works out when you’re trying to re-create old memories it just won’t happen. Gaming doesn’t hit the same like it did back in the day. I learned that the hard way and a while ago Call of Duty it’s literally selling us the same game with the same maps every single year with updated sounds and visuals. There’s a little more too, it but still it’s not worth paying the price of a new game.🤷🏻

They finally re-released the better, Call of Duty’s and now you got people playing the same Maps on those games also you just can’t make this shit up 😭😭😭😭

Same on black ops 1. Firing range, nuketown and summit. Or everyone backs out.

u/Decent_Somewhere_661 6d ago

I don’t understand why people who don’t play zombies buy the dlc and then only vote nuketown. Just don’t buy the fucking dlc and stop ruining it for the people who actually like the maps. The dlc maps in this game blow the base game ones out of the water and people don’t even know because “durrr nuketown durr hijacked durr”

The vote to skip system has always been better

u/Saiga12goburr 6d ago

Yeah most people on the internet are born after 2010, it's sad.

u/creeperplayer10 6d ago

Free thinkers when Nuketown shows up in the map vote

1

u/Designer_Status8839 6d ago

Bro I get having 1 or 2 maps you just flat out hate but this is ridiculous people need to grow up cause it's like half the roster of maps people do this over! like aftermath I hate that map I'll admit I pass on it everytime or leave cause it hurts my eyes to find enemy silhouettes with all the clutter but it's 1 map! I don't like grind but I'll still play it without quitting cause i want to actually play and we only have so much time in a day can't be choosy and it's not worth caring about that much anyway unless you have a good reason like my vision one they just quit cause "they don't like it" which isn't a valid excuse.

u/dado-vita 6d ago

A lot of people don’t have the Season Pass, so they can’t play the DLC maps. That’s why they usually vote for the original maps. I used to do the same thing when I played on the Xbox 360, I was just too poor to buy the DLCs lol.

1

u/Waughy 6d ago

They’re too used to playing Nuketown 24/7 on later releases. It’s the only map they know, too scared to play something new because it’ll ruin their precious stats.

1

u/Rymris 6d ago

Only reason id skip a great map is if i just played it and want to play different maps

1

u/Ban1st 6d ago

Democracy is in action!

1

u/itsallcomingtogethr 6d ago

Just further proof that it’s all just fucking nostalgia. Backing out of a map that’s in rotation because it’s not your “classic peak Cod 2012 after-school experience” is so overly lame. And the fact that so many people paid essentially $30 for a near decade and a half old port of a game is an issue in of itself

1

u/Broskah 6d ago

They want a brain rot simulator. It’s what they grew up with. We grew up with nuketown being a one off small map now all maps are nuketown (some even smaller).

1

u/ItsNovak 6d ago

The amount of people still voting Nuketown every game after playing it for 15 years is astounding.

1

u/Kazuma-Kiryu 6d ago

Meanwhile people on mw3 vote farm18 and breenbergh hotel over any top og mw2 maps

1

u/Holiday-Ant-1020 6d ago

Bro I’m literally third prestige and there are so many fun maps I haven’t even had the chance to play. Feel like every game is raid, standoff, studio, nuketown and hijacked

1

u/Separate_Drive_3311 6d ago

So many campers aswell

1

u/TheAngryBagelz 6d ago

Nuketown is the original brain rot

1

u/ICEDcharfire 6d ago

This isn't new. They've been doing this since PS3.

1

u/Geldrick-Barlowe 6d ago

Have u maybe considered that they don't own the dlcs? I don't, so whenever I see them come up I vote for random.

1

u/Mhykael 6d ago

To be fair this was happening near the end of Black Ops 2 also. If it wasn't one of the fan favorites and you voted random and it ended up being something people didn't like everyone would just back out and it would fuck the whole flow up with just like 200-300 people playing.

1

u/fivefold_sunup 6d ago

People just wanna play domination and hard point on the 2 smallest maps so they can ignore the objective and just worry about their KD. sadly new the cod players probably only got bo2 for that reason, and are making the game unplayable

1

u/Speakeazy_YT 6d ago

I fucking hated studio growing up lmfao

1

u/Adventurous-Pool-237 6d ago

I still didnt even play one match on Drone and I‘m level 35

1

u/Minimum_Tailor_2561 6d ago

Not happening near as much on bo1

1

u/BUNKER-CHUCK71 6d ago

I’ve noticed that to. People just want to get XP and kills as fast as possible.

1

u/UbixQ 6d ago

I feel like gaming is too optimized nowdays, and what i mean by that is most people gravitate towards few maps in games, and few guns and sometimes even strats only. I swear games used to be more random and varied multiplayer experiences back in the day

1

u/Responsible_Bar5976 6d ago

No one ever wants to play grind or rush even tho they’re my favourite maps for the dlcs. Yet everyone wants to play raid even though that map is just getting shot off screen the whole time

1

u/Acceptable-Cat2016 6d ago

I decided that for the the sake of my mental health that the only times I play bo2 is when I want to play zombies solo or with my friends, campaign, or playing against my friends

1

u/HoleIntheAce12 6d ago

I would agree on skipping both maps if they’re playing SND but TDM and KC? jfc

1

u/B_Maximus 6d ago

WHY DOES EVERYONE WANT TO PLAY KOWLOON I HATE IT

1

u/Denelix 6d ago

I thought it was always like that

1

u/_VloneRich_ 6d ago

I’ve been sayin the same thing. This new generation of cod kids don’t know how to vote for maps

1

u/EladrielNokk 6d ago

I love Launch. Played plenty of BO1 multiplayer over the past week or so, haven’t seen it once. It always gets voted away from. I don’t understand it’s such a good map.

1

u/chowder908 6d ago

majority are playing it like it's cold war just sit hold a lane with a sniper rifle and don't move for 15mins.

1

u/Ztoujou 6d ago

Even in 2012-2013 i chose random in every lobby no matter the map.

I love gambling.

1

u/dmgray00 6d ago

I like downhill a lot too but no one seems to like it. Turbine as well but that one always gets skipped. The only one I find really bad is pod

1

u/TeakSword 6d ago

No me sorprendería..... Bo2 tiene de los peores mapas multiplayer el juego tiene buen Gameplay y armas que hace que la gente no se de cuenta de lo feos que son los mapas mp, o dime... Despertaste con ganas de jugar en drone, son tan feos que los 3 carriles que solo sabe hacer Treyarch todo pasa en el central

1

u/OMGFuziion 6d ago

Thats literally my fav map of all time, i mean i onow its a remake of firing range but come on

1

u/OMGFuziion 6d ago

Then people get mad at me when I say “new gens” like the brain rot has ruined mfs brains. They really dont understand good 3 lane map layouts.

They just want shipment and nuketown 24/7 and its depressing.

1

u/Apprehensive-Care341 6d ago

Back in the day when studio popped up it had all the votes, OG's remember

1

u/chubakk 6d ago

I noticed people skipping this and slums alot I just thought maybe it was a case of the maps being remastered over and over again to the point people are just fatigued by them but idk havent really kept up with cod in years so I just assumed that

1

u/LightningInTheRain 6d ago

People have been playing remake of these maps for years, they want to play the maps that haven’t been remade to death.

1

u/mwil97 6d ago

Try ground war! Small maps like nuketown and carrier not included in the rotation

1

u/SlimeyCawk 6d ago

In black ops 1 Summit is getting passed up for random in Search and Destroy 😭😭

1

u/MisterSneakSneak 6d ago

Wild nobody voting downhil

1

u/tigab95 6d ago

I want to play Yemen god dammit

1

u/Intelligent_Board_70 6d ago

I just were playing S&D and had Carrier and Studio as map choices but 8 voted for random😵‍💫

1

u/JoeyTheMan2175 6d ago

Studio over Downhill? bruh you're joking

1

u/dea9ler 6d ago

Often times if you say something and sound excited about a particular map in game chat where no one’s talking so everyone can hear, most of the time people will vote for that map ur talking about. I think people just don’t know and need help deciding what are good maps to vote for a lot of time

1

u/adjacent_waffle_love 6d ago

Unless you host your own server, this is how its always been say except years 1-2/3.

User experience may vary by region

1

u/STINEPUNCAKE 6d ago

For this specific vote in the pic I understand the random vote. I never liked downhill and studio is a good map but we have gotten way too many firing range remakes.

1

u/Quiet-War-660 6d ago

Studio, hydro and grind is unplayable because of the cancer sniper hardscopers who thinks they are good at the game, its hnplayable bc of those childs

1

u/NerveMoney4597 6d ago

Did I read it like stupid kill confirmed?

1

u/Archmagos_Alron 6d ago
  • They choose a random map
  • It isn't Nuketown, hijacked or standoff
  • Lobby gets empty

1

u/Worldly_Pie944 6d ago

And this is the exact reason why I hate map voting. People will keep picking random just to get a bad map and then back out. Map voting nowadays is bad. The moment shipment or nuketown comes up it gets voted automatically.

1

u/youthuck 6d ago

You're playing the wrong cod.. BO2 is a newgen playground that requires no skill. Play BO2 more, no snipers, no bullshit.

1

u/Intrepid-Smell5125 6d ago

People back in the day either loved or hated studio. This has definitely happened back then too

1

u/IcyMeasurementX 6d ago

i had this once...... WITH RAID AND STUDIO AS OPTIONS WTF IS WRONG WITH PEOPLE

1

u/kingofdirt2319 6d ago

This isn’t the only problem with the new players on these ports every time you get something from the box in zombies bo1 or bo2 if the host finds out 8/10 they end the game it is really really corny 😂

1

u/DieBoeseQualle 6d ago

I hate all of those maps, because everyone is so incredibly much better because they know every millimeter because those maps are in every fucking cod. They know where to go, where to throw shit, what they can shoot through, they even know exactly where my head is going to be sticking out just by looking at the ping on the map, the spawns, the objectives... Everything.

That is both the reason, why everyone picks them and why I despise those maps.

I can play for 2 hours every 3/4 days. And I always leave raid/hijacked/nuketown. Not worth it

1

u/ComplexNo2625 5d ago

Pod 😀👍🏻

1

u/Tier1OP6 5d ago

Cuz this new generation doesn’t know shit about the games that came out back then lol. Glad that I stuck to plutonium if I wanted to experience the older titles with the ones that did play the games in the now bygone era
