Stop voting for the same multiplayer maps

Been playing CS since October 2000 and I still like Dust 1 more than 2. 2 just never fully agreed with me.

Gridlock, Canals, Fuel Depot, Mansion
Lockout, Zanzibar, Sanctuary, Ivory Tower, Beaver Creek,
Vacant, Overgrown, Crash and Nuketown

Would be cool to see games take a Halo MCC approach and maybe have the ability to filter maps they don't want. Or just browse open games like Gears 5 and Halo 5.

Nuketown is great
Nuk3town is fucking trash
On topic, I'd like it if "vote to skip" made a return, over just voting on maps.

Obviously I don't expect the people I'm in matches with to be here (maybe). I'm just speaking to the general tendency for people to do this.
Okay weirdo with the "suffering" over here.
OP
OP
That's another thing - way too much care about leveling up in these games. Call of Duty has the most superficial leveling in any game I've played. Shit is literally pointless once you get to 55 (BO3) the first time because then you have everything unlocked. A perpetual state of the same maps over and over just to level up to the same spot via prestige over and over. It's maddening! hahahaha
Games should just let you pick what maps you want to play on before you queue. At least then you have a choice and don't get stuck playing something you hate.
I hate map voting for the reasons you list OP. I've been playing the new MW and no map voting is amazing.
OP
OP
Gotta say though, it's satisfying when people refuse to change maps and I manage to kick their asses a second or third time in the same ones. I have to imagine some people vote for the same map to also redeem themselves.
Always gotta be working towards something!
I hit prestige 8 in BO3. By far the highest i ever hit in any cod. Loved that game. And seriously, Combine is the GOAT in my opinion. Wish they could bring it back but its so heavily revolves around wall running.
OP
OP
I'm at the highest prestige level 688, but that's because I played so much for years, I figured why not just prestige every time. But never did I care about accumulating as many points as possible per match just to level up. That was never my thing and I never voted for the maps that provided easy points explicitly for that.
Democracy is a joke.
This is why I love the dictatorship of Modern Warfare, while sometimes decides that I just want Picadilly all day. :P

I'm taking the piss out of you for creating a topic about people in MP games selecting the maps they want to play.
OP

I figured as much. I was also joking.
But really playing the same maps over and over isn't ideal. Monotony sucks. I have favorite maps as well but I don't always choose them if I've played them recently.
I agree with you, actually. However, the lobby is in disagreement and is not only ok with monotony but is actively voting for that monotony. To the lobby, playing the same map over and over IS ideal, and I'm just here to play so I guess Nuketown it is.
Absolutely de_dust forever, it is the epitome of CS in its heyday for me. Such great times.
I dislike map voting and I also dislike map weighting. Just give me variety.
Also, while we are it... If you played on map X, then please disable that map X for like 2 or 3 matches. Most games have more than enough maps and players to support this and if they don't then tweak the setting.

I've played several other non-COD games in my day. This is not exclusive to COD.
Precisely why I hate matchmaking. Give me ranked lobbies so if I want to play the same match type on the same map over and over again, I'm not beholden to a vote. And when I want to, I'm especially not beholden to a vote.
Nothing worse than being stuck in the same map and match type for three rounds, you exit back to the lobby to try and find another game, and either end up back in the same one, or in another similar loop on the same exact goddamn map.

Oh man that spicey take! lol
No seriously, I hate Nuketown too
Well my point isn't exactly unique to Cod. I don't mind dodging bad maps and mostly playing the good ones. The problems start when the player base causes the exact opposite.
But if the variety itself is an issue for you, I get it.
It's a terrible map. It's like metro in Battlefield. People just want to throw themselves into a meat grinder.
You oughta be slapped for saying only a few maps are good in cod 4.
OP
OP
And I'll say it again, I don't give a damn. I think its maps mostly suck, especially compared to MW2.
Fuck COD4's maps!
