well the title speaks for itself really what do you guys and gals think are the worse and best maps (and for which difficulty) in the multiplayer and why? 

 

personally i find hydra the worse everything simultaneously shooting you, not that many places to cover, only really good for snipers.

 

On other hand i find giant or glacier(not the hazard one tho) the best more places to hide a lot of narrow spaces to do some serious fire+power damage and objectives are usually easier on those maps.

 

but of course its just my opinion and just wanna find out what everyone else thinks about this

 

(ps i didn't see another post like this so if there is, well t**s)

White is probably the best overall because just about every playstyle works well. Special mention to Vancouver for one of the more interesting maps in the game. It has a lot of vertical scaling aspect which is very unique among the maps. 

 

Rio is my pick for the worst designed map. Horribly one-dimensional with the game heavily focused on one area of the map. Special mention to Dagger hazard in the worst category - having the sandstorm affect our vision but not the enemies is just lame.

It depends which weapon my QFI is carrying.  If we roll Glacier and she's packing a Claymore, I'm :D; but if she's brought the Widow, I'm :(

 

Dagger, Giant and Vancouver are some of my favourites.  I also like Rio; although many dislike it due to its size, I don't find that a problem except during escort and pizza objectives.  The general theme here is that I think I favour maps with both plentiful cover and long sight lines.

 

I dislike Condor because of all the bugs (stingy ammo crates, problematic cover), and London because objectives frequently go sideways due to the absence of cover in the open death zones.

i heard a lot of hate for Rio i have no idea why, its really fun i think simple design, if you can get everyone on one side of the map everything will be spawned on other end so easy targets (sometimes i even do sniper sessions with one other friend usually on silver and hell its goes amazing and its rather fun) a lot of grenades and a lot of ammo boxes, yeah ok objectives are difficult but hell worth it :D

Best Map:  Condor.  It's a really cool looking map with lots of stuff going on in it.  Lots of different play styles can be used on it effectively.  It's large, different elevations, and junk everywhere.  Sometimes it almost feels a bit like a maze.

 

 

Worst Map:  Condor.  Too damn buggy.  BioWare really screwed the pooch.  So much potential to be a fantastic map. :-(

I think Earth has the worst maps of the bunch. Namely Rio and London. Vancouver is kinda average to me (though I'm surprised to read many hear love that map). The other two DLC map packs at least all have one really good map (Condor & Goddess), with the other ones being good (Jade) and still good enough, I guess (Hydra).

 

The original maps are all good except that the hazard versions basically double the chances of playing the original maps over the DLC ones (least how it feels like to me). Combine with pug choices like always playing one of these original maps, and you have maps like Giant being much too overplayed and not like mostly because we're tired of "not another Giant session... where's that rubber band?"

 

 

My top 3 fave maps are (in no order);

- Ghost Hazard

- Condor

- Goddess

 

Other maps I like are (in no order); 

- White

- Dagger

- Glacier

- Jade

 

Reactor map I'm not too crazy about it's layout and look (though the colour choices on the WiiU actually make it look good for a change).

 

London I just recently learned that I don't like it very much at all. Might even like Rio more then London...

Overall for best map I have to go with White, it's excellent both for team games and soloing.

Gigant is not to bad either but I prefer White.


Worst map hands down is Condor, it's to open with to many holes where Ravagers and Primes can snipe you from the other side of the map.

^ 2015. And BSNers still don't know how to find cover on Condor.

Firebase dragon is probably the worst. It looks good (in terms of layout) but its a huge wide open area. Wave 10 is brutal on everything but hding a position.

The problem is more that you still get hit on spots where everything looks perfectly safe, which can get quite annoying vs platinum Geth......

^ But all maps have holes in cover. Keeps the game more interesting this way.

Low cover completely sucks, the reason cover on condor is bad is the lack of right hand advantage and easily flankable positions. And we're comparing maps, obviously maps without right hand advantage would lose.

My personal worst and best maps in my experience...

 

Worst

Hydra:

And it really doesn't have to be. But it often is. Either I show up and someone's camping the bug, or they're trying to commit prolonged suicide by camping the LZ/Bunker. It's rare that I see people try to hold the Control Room and allow themselves to be pushed back and forth between cover.

 

Ghost:

Hate the place. For many of the same reasons as Hydra. But mostly I just find it a bit too big. I also feel like since it wasn't my favourite I seem to get it in U/U a lot more often.

 

Condor:

Dead horse. I agree that aesthetically it's one of the best though.

 

Best

Vancouver:

I live near there, and grew up in one of the outlying cities. (Langley) I think the map itself is interesting though. Small enough with long enough line of sights to keep things interesting, yet with enough cover to keep you alive. Also, all the lovely edges you can shieldbonk people over is nice too. Considerate.

 

White:

Well designed, good flow, arguably the best solo flow map, flat out. Still fun, still pretty. I even like the redesign. Playing regular FBW in SP is, odd.

 

Glacier:

Would get old except I don't actually run into it that often. Love the map on certain kits.

Whatever Map I'm on is usually worst (I always get Glacier when I'm grinding sniper challenges)

 

Whatever map I think would be better suited to my setup but I'm not on is the best, I never get Glacier when I'm playing with high lord crutchmore

My 3 favorites are Goddess, Vancouver & London

 

 

I am starting to get really tired of Dagger & Ghost ..seems like those are the only 2 I role lately...

 

Condor....it looks fine...but that map ..it just really comes down to what faction you are going against..I am fine with playing Cerberus & Reapers there...getting sniped by scions and primes from the complete other side of the map is just stupid

Aesthetics: Condor, Goddess, Hazard White

 

Gameplay/layout: Goddess is my favorite. Great choke points, challenging objectives, excellent ammo boxes. I love this map. Ghost is also a great one as is White.

That's what I love about the map.  It removes the "creative mechanics" from game play.

 

Stay in one spot too long... You're dead.

 

Using RHA in one of the limited spots where it's possible, you're gonna get flanked quickly and... You're dead.

 

 

It's a map unlike any other.  You have to keep moving at all times, and at a quick pace, or you will be swallowed whole.

 

 

 

What ruins it is the bugginess.  Shame.  It could have been a map that separated the great players from the wannabes.  It exposes weaknesses like no other map...

Glacier gets crowded really fast when you have bosses both in front and behind you. That gives some really intense gameplay.

 

Goddess is well balanced with open areas on the lower parts and choke points above.

 

I don't like Condor for the reasons already mentioned. Even if I'm careful and watch my 6, I end up with Collector bombs raining down on me or get staggered by a Prime.

 

Dagger hazard is also a pain in the ***. Maybe It's because I haven't figured out how to maneuver it properly, but half of the map is just a death trap.

I don't mind condor until I have to clutch a platinum wave on it, then I just get pissed off.

yeah , i kinda hate and love condor too for the reason allready explained by phoenix and hardcoresalmon.

Still the "fake" hard cover and soft cover on condor is a bit to much

I see lots of RHA everywhere.

Don't really have a favorite.  Depends on the kit I'm playing at the time.

 

But I know I absolutely despise London.

Maps I love : White, Ghost, Hydra and Glacier

Maps I don't mind : Reactor, Giant, Rio, Jade, Goddess and Dagger

Maps I hate : Condor, London, Vancouver and all hazard maps.

New maps would have been vastly preferred over slight variations to old maps. Did I mention most of these hazards run horribly on PS3? I hate Condor because it's a glitchy POS and, in my experience, London isn't far behind in that department.
