Modern Warfare 2 launched with 10 maps, and the environments reviewed varying degrees of reviews. Most notably, community members slammed Santa Sena as one of the worst maps in COD history, as the long highway strip was littered with explodable cars. Former CDL pro FormaL went one step further and claimed: \u201cThese maps are just f**king garbage.\u201d So, one could only guess the reaction when Sledgehammer Games announced plans to bring back MW2 maps throughout MW3 post-launch seasons. The devs elaborated: \u201cThese maps are graphically identical to how they appeared in MWII. And due to the innovations to movement and general gameplay mechanics present in MWIII, you may find that they play in an altogether different manner.\u201d With the first set of MW2 maps now live in MW3, the verdict is in, and the ruling may surprise some. Modern Warfare 3 players praise MW2 playlist On November 16, an MW3 playlist launched featuring Shoot House, Crown Raceway, Farm 18, and Mercado Las Almas. After testing the new playlist, CharlieIntel claimed: \u201cThe Modern Warfare II maps play so much better in Modern Warfare 3 MP with classic mini-map, good movement, and more. Wow, we could\u2019ve had this all year.\u201d Ramping up excitement even more, the Call of Duty insider responded to fans asking for Shipment to be added next: \u201cIt will be soon.\u201d CharlieIntel wasn\u2019t alone in enjoying the return of MW2 maps in MW3. One player responded: \u201cFarm 18 and Mercado are all-time classic maps, and I hope people can appreciate them now that they\u2019re in this game.\u201d A second user added: \u201cI said this the day mw3 dropped. Mw2 maps were bada**. Crown raceway with movement is amazing.\u201d That isn\u2019t to say everyone is excited about MW2 maps coming back. Comments directed at bad spawns and skill-based matchmaking (SBMM) prevented some players from enjoying the new playlist. Whatever the verdict, it\u2019s hard to complain too much with so much multiplayer content to enjoy.
