You will play Vacant and Strike a lot as the colors are more vivid for some reason. With some added color and plants, an additional exit to the back of the laundry mat in Strike........not much has changed. In Carnival, a lot of camping in the fun house, rocket ship, roller coaster, castle, bumper cars, merry go around........you name it. A lot of corners to camp and players are doing a bunch of it. In Fuel, easily the biggest map next to Overgrown, it is a good map. Problem is, guys are already glitching in a rock that no one can kill and that ruins it for anyone to the side with the big ass rocks. Good map to play Search and Destroy and Domination. The Trailer Park is the worst map in terms of camping at every corner and it is hard to get a consistent kill streak. With FMJ, no one is safe in the trailers and from my experience, a lot of camping like the map Carnival. Nice to have an additional five maps to the rotation, but nothing special due to a lot of people camping. See for yourself, nice to have more maps, but be prepared to bring the marshmellows for the campers around the corner.

Yup, not out yet. I even checked the add-on section, which is where I found it last time before it was put on the front page.

I like small cramped maps with lots of camping. Keeps the snipers at a minimum and campers are like scissors to my rock when I break out the Danger Close.

The new game mode with no killstreaks is a very easy way to get the Mario emblem. :lol:

Yes and No. The new maps are in Mosh Pit mode. That is the only place you can play Mosh Pit right now. Once the new maps are put in the regular rotation then Mosh Pit will prob be added back on the main menu.

CTF is gone except for rotation as well. Quick review of the maps.

Fuel- Biggest map yet I think but fun. Lots of open space in middle and tight spaces on the edges of the map. for a big map very good.

Carnival- just awesome. so much shit to run around. Probably the best looking map they have done.

Trailer Park-Best of the 3, its fucking hilarious. Lots of trailers to go in and out. Played a CTF there and won 9-1. very small map with tons of hiding spaces but each trailer has 2-3 ways of entry.

Strike and vacant- Lots of additions to these old maps especially on strike. Door in the back of C building, a buffet and rope lights in the a building. Vacant, the lighting is 1000 times better ( almost a sunrise type lighting)
