Top 5 Favorite Maps

Ravage,

I never played the original DOD but I did look up Glider images. It does look very interesting. I wonder why Valve didn't import any of the popular DOD maps into DODs!?!?!?! When I first began playing I can recall kind of a rift between DOD and DODs players. Many people would comment that DOD had better maps. Thank you for sharing.


A lot of stuff was left out of DODS that many people (myself included) were upset about. There were far more classes in DOD than DODS. Glider was imo the best map ever in DOD. A heavy objective oriented map that offers a variety of ways to complete objectives. Unlike DODS where you HAD to plant TNT on the objectives to destroy em on Glider you could use the Rocket Launcher to destroy the objectives. It was great! Also the British!

Sturm,

I looked up several of these maps as I had never heard of them. I will say that Solitude was one of the most visually nice looking maps I've seen. Also, that U471 looks so interesting. You get an A+ for this exhaustive list. Thank you for sharing.

Just 5!?

1. Coire
2. Solitude
3. Sora
4. Supplytrains
5. Diversion

Honorable mentions (Heh, I don't follow rules):

Abbey
Airfield
Anemia
Anvil
Anzio
Argentan
Aura
Avalanche
Churchyard
Colmar
Crash
Donner
Flash
Flurry
Harbor
Jagd
Kalt
Stug
Tunisia
U471
Verdun
Vigilance

ANYTHING with a 415 in it!

And yes there was a map named Sturm!
 
Cubey you get a "high-five" :thumbup1: for getting Argentan in there. I looked up Rails but didn't find anything. Thanks for sharing your list.

1. Anzio (it is my best map)
2. Argentan
3. Rails
4. Harrington
5. Palermo
 
Boyle,

I had forgotten about Jagd...I was never great with the explosives style maps but that was a really fun map. Was this an official map or a modded map later released? It was fun to hide behind the sand bag / walls when the axis would jump over them by spawn and maybe the far right alley!?!?!

Great list!

1.Anzio - Axis big advantage
2.Jagd - Allies big advantage
3.Colmar - even
4.Palermo - Allies slight (could get to the beach side faster)
5.Kalt - Axis slight (could get to the bridge faster)
 
Ravage,

It is interesting...I just watched a short clip of this map. There is definitely levels of detail that never made it into DODs. There was a cow on the map. LOL A variety of countries (like the British) could have easily been added to DODs. Such a shame. Thank you.

Simon,

I'm certain that I've never seen that map before...not sure why I haven't but that looks interesting. Plus, I've never played the board game Risk either. When I was a child my brothers and father would play a game called Stratego. It's kinda like a chess / checkers type game. I'm not sure if they played Risk or not. I look forward to some of the game images. Thank you.

Lol, if your family played risk you'd know it.

Lots of screaming and the game can take daaaayyyzzz
 
Rails was fun.

Sturm, one of my favs was 415 Playground. 415 is still around, some of my old clan went there several years ago. Not sure if they're still making new maps but they definitely made some great ones in their time.
 
re: Strand Allies can win - like Simon said, needs a good team. I liked playing both sides but Allies better. If you get a good sniper and riflemen that can get the assults/smgs up to the beach to breach the sea wall you can stream them in there to take the whole right/back side. There is another map based on Omaha beach, its more of a sniper map, its nowhere near as good as Strand. You had bombs to blow up points, and you had a Flak 88 and mortar tubes you could fire, and... a cow? I miss Strand.

Here is a Youtube I found.

Come to think of it, didn't the eGO server used to turn you into a piano or something if the American's lost?

Racing88 and Creativeindy,

Do you still play Strand on other servers? Is this still a popular map? Thank you for sharing.

I jump on 6th IB's servers from time to time to get my rotation map fix in.. but yes, they play it there quite often.
