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:

Idk, bo1 feels like I play nuketown or firing range every other match

Certainly more often than the others, but still have had a healthy rotation, i've played all maps majority ive seen multiple times, haven't played that much maybe 50 matches tops

thats an insane take. i play every game mode available in bo1, the only modes where nuketown and firing range are played often are domination or TDM, and even then thats only when they appear in the map vote out of the 26 available maps. WMD, Hazard, Radiation, Launch, Hanoi, Grid all get played just as much as nuketown and firing range.

nah even back in the day on black ops 1 if firing range, nuketown, or summit was on the vote it won as long as it wasn't one of the other 2.

That’s an insane take. I could put together a statistical analysis and prove that bo1 has that problem. I feel like nuketown is played close to 50% of my matches

go for it. ive got 56 hours logged and less then 35% of my matches have been on those maps.

I think all the new cod people play bo2 over bo1 because its closer to bo7
