I love farm. It's one of those maps that separates the men from the boys as it were. The variety is nice, too. The experience is drastically different between the expansive open areas and the claustrophobic houses and barns. There's a little something for every perk in this map. I especially love the 2-story "towers" on the u-shaped building where people can snipe from the upstairs windows while the rest of the team holds the minuscule, frantic choke-point downstairs. Just...mad props to whoever made that map- I love it.

Favourite Official: Farm, I love exploring and I love the incredibly varied locations.
Least Fav: Well, its a tossup between Icebreaker and Crash. Icebreaker runs like **** on my machine, and Crash has some exploits which ruined it for me when I found them. Its a nice map otherwise.

Fav Custom: Mulitifarious, hands down. I love the look of the place, I love how big it is and I love how hectic it is when you have an entire group roaming around the map. King of the Hill is a close second, but after a bunch of exploring I found some exploits that ruined it for me.
Least Fav: Defence, that castle sucks. It is stupid easy with the doors up, and still easy with them down. Plus you can hide under the damn staircase and dodge FP's, the map takes no skill and isn't fun. (Unlike doom which takes no skill and is fun ;) )

For me there is a delicate balance; I want a map that is big and varied, but the bigger and more varied they are, the more glitches and exploits there are, and if a map has even one, it kills it for me.

Its the most easiest official map around dude. Cant believe why people love farm. Its ideal for grinding and not getting hurt yourself.

No, just give me offices. That is for the true heroes.

Fav: crash, I like the balcony most everyone goes to. I also like farm a lot but my eyes always strain with the darkness.

Least fav: biotics lab, so claustraphobic

My favorite map is Icebreaker, very well made, easy to get overwhelmed and the ship shaking is awesome.

Least favorite (Official): Biotics, sure its fun but i cant stand playing this map again and again.

Least favorite: Defence, pyramid and many others that are so simple and have little to no challenge.

Well, I liked all core maps. Maybe Offices are a little boring, but hey, still good.

Foundry was lovely, Bedlam and Wyre both had their good moments.

When grindhouse started I had my favorites... and guess what - they ALL made it to the official pack. Waterworks, Departed, Crash, Icebreaker and Filthscross.

I think that Grimpen, Swamp, Marylux and RaccoonAirport are also quite nice.

What I absolutely HATE are ugly, noob-friendly maps like Defense, Doom2 or Policestation. Why would anyone ever want to play on these?
