Had a mini-marathon last night and got to check most of the maps, think I went 3 straight hours. Can't remember the last time I played a MP shooter in a stretch like that (probably SII, heh). SOCRACK is BACK.
I think I'm finally warming to 32 player matches. When everybody has a mic people seem to naturally congregate to their own mini-squads and chokepoints, which results in some pretty fantastic shoot outs. Its not as chaotic as I thought it was going to be and remains pretty tactical.
How do you guys like the new maps so far? Fallen and Urban Wasteland seem pretty cool from what I played. Fallen has a really terrific design for Demolition. Its pretty open ended on the perimiter but there's all sorts of ambush points to wade through in the ruins and tunnels. UW has a really gritty atmosphere, lots of nasty sniper spots too. Wasn't crazy about Quarantine, feels a bit too straightforward, more like something out of COD.
