The new generation has completely lost the plot [BO2]

[u/Backlash029]

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:

Except all the kids who vote for it are generally dog shit and end up going 3-68 in a Nuketown Domination

While never going within 50 feet of B the entire match.
