I find it's not too bad with a team that sticks together and moves from spawn to spawn. But even then... I actually do better in the clutch position on most PUGs vs. dealing with scattered enemies when everyone is spread out.
The top of the hill only has two outlets so it's pretty easy to get trapped if a couple teammates go down while you are up there, and no ammo box. Sightlines are great for enemy sniping. Ammo box trolling is a real PITA, not just for grenades - getting only five shells for my Claymoar at the start of a round is not fun, given none of the boxes are in a "safe" location and the paths between are themselves dangerous no matter where the enemy.
If as a team you can go from ammo box to ammo box on the perimeter, everyone dealing terrific amounts of damage, it's not so bad - someone else can pick up your own slack until you get a refill. But it can be pretty messy when that doesn't happen.
I think it's a "challenging" map on Gold and Platinum.
Why is FB Condor so unpopular?

I've done lots of duos on Condor because of this. Invisible enemies happen there quite a bit too... But that happens on every level.
my experience on condor with the harrier is
-run to ammo box #1 only to have a teammate get there just before you
-run to ammo box #2 to find it is also empty because of another teammate
-run to ammo box #3, get like 30 bullets, wave then starts and you have enough ammo to kill basically one enemy

Ammo crates, and joining problems make it a horrible map to land on.

The ammo boxes thing is annoying, plus it can be a brutal map with people who don't know what they are doing.

It's the only hazard map that is not designated as such.

Okay, went through my film of yesterday's duo attempts. I was off... we disconnected 3 out of 5 attempts, not 4 out of 6, but still pretty bad.

It's all the way out in the middle of No Man's Land and going to it between waves derps the spawns up.

"riddled with bugs mate..."
-taken from only1biggs regarding many, many games. safe bet he'd say this about FBCondor.

I don't really care about the ammo boxes. I don't like the fire lanes, I don't like the lighting.

Because it's a glitchy piece of dog feces that they choose not to fix. The map is actually pretty neat in design but just a piece of crap for ammo, getting stuck in the waiting for other players screen, invisible enemies, invincible characters. POMFS map should've been removed.
