Personally I enjoy Mission Maps more... it feels so enigmatic and dramatic as you go from map to map, check point to check point with an objective. Don't get me wrong, I love the normal gameplay, and I play it now and then to chill out but there is special about Mission gameplay and the brilliant creativity of people that keeps me wanting to play them about 80% of the time I play KF.

What do you prefer? The normal wave gameplay or mission maps? If so, why do you prefer said gameplay?

I prefer Wave maps, but only because the current trend with mission maps seems to be to swarm the players so much that their processors break.

Hive is an example of a good mission map in my opinion, it doesn't bombard you with a ridiculous amount of specimens yet it still can be challenging and fun.

What SMIFF said,

+ mission maps have fixed amounts of specimen, making them virtually unplayable with fewer players
+ most of them are pretty buggy and tend to crash my game

I'd play Mission Maps more, but i need about 4 map achievements until i can play custom maps without that nagging feeling.

I do enjoy the normal maps, there's a reason they're there, but MMs give you a more rewarding feeling when you beat them.

Go back to that other zombie game you mission loving-

I'm sorry, that was a little trollish, anywho, as you can tell I like waves.

Because they don't suck.

I'm going to eat a bowl of ramen now.

"Normal Waves... I enjoy having the trader every wave and basically survive. " - Rofl not taking any sides with the poll ey?

Mission maps are awesome but mostly youd have to go through the trouble of setting up a proper team and all that, so I just rather go play a normal game.

If mission maps got better support from TWI, I'd hit it.

But right now normal waves maps are more stable and less buggy.

^ This, but I don't necessarily prefer wave maps. But if we had a choice between a few new wave maps or a few official mission maps that are done correctly (i.e. no processor rape like already described), I'd go for the mission maps, however I would never want "no wave maps again, plz" or anything like it. A balance would be nice.
