I was excited when I heard Crash and Overgrown were going to be included in the Stimulus pack and to be fair to IW the other three new maps are fun too.
While Strike was also a great map Vacant was not one of CoD4's stronger maps so Pipeline and Backlot would have been much better. You never know though, MW2 may suit Vacant and if the new maps are at least as good as the first map pack it won't matter too much.

no special ops , i will pass on this aswel.

Not having played Cod 4, (at least more than a handful of hours) there's a general consensus that CoD 4's maps were all better.

Why?

Is this classic gamer nostalgia 'amg, WoW was so much better before BGs and when MC was liek totally exclusive' (been a long time since I played, they probably moan about the good old days of BT now.) or is there a basis to this in fact?

Were those maps actually that well constructed?

Or is it just that you lot all preferred CoD4?

Backlot and broadcast...best maps ever...

Good point above, no new spec ops missions being introduced really does suck.

I for one enjoyed doing Spec Ops. Arguably the best moment for me playing MW2 was completing Specs Ops on Veteran in an all nighter with my mate. Good times.. plus completing High Explosive another time on my own(the stress of that sssh)

Perfect maps that are left and should be brought from COD4 into MW2 IMO:

Strike
Pipeline (probably on the limit admittedly)
Crossfire (like Pipeline)
District

Backlot would probably just miss out for me(love Backlot in COD4 btw)

Those maps for the most part I'm fairly sure of it can the handle the ridiculous killstreaks. Some of the maps mentioned the posts above are not thought out for the reason I just mentioned. The new maps, well it's difficult to give an opinion based on a screenshot but.. I do like the look of them. Suits my eye if you get me, much like Terminal, Crash, Strike and a few others did.

I totally disagree with you, where are people saying that cod4 maps are better than mw2, everyones just comparing the cod4 maps and which of those they enjoyed most.

Imo the overall quality of the cod4 maps isn't above or bellow mw2, they both have there good ones and they're bad.

It's a feeling I pick up from here and other places. I may be wrong. Doesn't bother me.

IW should have gone out to the Community to see what COD4 maps players would like to see included in the mappacks, I reckon there will at least be one more before November.

Yeah they really should've. In fact i'd say the fact they haven't would indicate they intend to release the majority of the maps (or at least the ones they consider the best).

Yeah considering Treyarch had their third map pack out in july i'd say IW will wanna cash in as much as possible before Black Ops steals any of their thunder.

Snake Plisken

In fact Treyarch are really listening to the community looking for ideas for challanges etc even during development, and also I read somwhere there will be a beta test for Black Ops

I'm actually not getting this one. After all my waiting for the first map pack and hearing what was going to be in it (I heard there was going to be new weapons and perks like the draganov, Overkill Perk and other things) I was really disappointed to only get 3 new maps for €13-14 and 2 ones that I've already overplayed...

Fool me once Activision :pac:

I never heard about that, though I would have loved having the Dragunov in the game. Mainly cause I love Soviet style guns :pac:

Done a quick google there The list in the first post http://forums.modernwarfare247.com/index.php?/topic/18164-mw2-new-map-pack-info/ is what I heard was coming to the first map pack. It's probably why I'm still so disappointed with what we got.

Damn, if I had seen that first, then got the pack I'd be pretty annoyed too. I never liked the Skorpion though, AK-74U any day baby :P
