Hardcore S&D:Ricochet is a great idea. Hardcore S&D on MW1 often had the random moron who would RPG the teammates early on, resulting in a fail for the whole team. The whole ricochet idea is great and makes what was my favourite mode for a while, more enjoyable.

I never did post what my favourite 5 maps are so i’ll do it now.
5. Wasteland, simply because if sniping begins to anooy me, I can blast the crap out of anyone in the tunnels
4. Derail, deceptively good for close range weapons as the map is way to wide for snipers to watch the lot, allowing you to get up close and personal
3. Skidrow, again a good map, with plenty of scope for any weapon except snipers. LMG’s can watch over the long corridors, notably the tunnel on the western side of the map, and the corridor directly above the exit of the tunnel. Assault rifles good for accurate shooting and SMG for those liking to get up close.
2. Karachi, love this map, plenty of scope for any sort of weapon and for it to be effective. A good map with multiple layers and areas of intense fighting.
1. Favela. Fight it out in the tight corridors (ideal for knifing) or gt up on the roofs and pick out people from large areas of the map. Plenty of hidden corners, little alleys, but mixed nicely with open areas. I tend to do well here, due to the predictablity of people’s direction after the game starting spawn and the urban combat which I do best in.
I like all the maps really, just Underpass the least, because I rely on having sharp vision(well awareness of moving) to get the drop on people. Stick me in a rainy map and that’s taken away. Same with Downpour in CoD4, not a fan.

Another thing I like is the reduction of Mounted MG’s in kill whoring areas, making them an oppotunity weapon rather than just a stand and spray everywhere weapon.

Underpass 24 kills (one streak) 0 assist 1 death (right at the end)
