yeah .. chinatown is a remake of a very popular cod2 map, carentan. I'm excited about it.

yeah, but we already have custom maps... look through your server list... hell, in almost any of the large server farms that host cod4 servers, in-game will be a message for the custom-map server hosted by them. The xbox and ps3 users are still only stuck with what the company gives them. We techincally have access to infinitely more maps, which means it may not be necessary to provide it to us at this point...

also, as with any pc game, the pc version of cod4 supports more people than either console version... so the maps may have to be slightly different anyway.

if IW doesn't port the maps onto PC, someone will. The competitive community is dying for chinatown, as 3/4 of the maps blow for competition.

Are they any good though? the only game i can remember consistently seeing top shelf quality custom maps was CounterStrike. And maps were a lot easier to make back then.

Edit -- okay, maybe the original ET had some good ones too

tfc, tf2, quake3

okay, haven't played custom maps, didn't play it much at all

you still didn't answer my question though. COD4 maps are much more detailed than any of those.

you're right.. cod4 maps are very detailed.... but the custom maps are really not that bad... the most important thing is getting the chokepoints, spawn points, and funnel points right and after that you can add the detail (like with what happened with mill for cs). after the community has made maps for a year, they'll start to get very detailed and some may go well beyond what we got with the stock maps.

but to give you the answer you're looking for: No, right now the customs are not more detailed then the stock maps. It seems like they are trying to get teh cod2 maps done first... the customs are very simple right now (like 4 buildings at a street corner).


oh yeah, ut2003 and ut2004 had fucking fantastic user made custom maps too

okay, and that's why its important for IW to release these maps they worked on. i've played tons of fun custom maps in tons of different games but most of the time the overall quality of the map was lower than the standard that professionally done maps are held to. which is to be expected.

/crossing fingers they port these onto PC
