So I decided to jump into some call of duty whatever the most current one is now that it's free on game pass.

The first two matches I was spawned into were on shipment. A map that I remember being absolute trash back in the day but it still is. The third match it went to put me in dropped me into that same map as well so I quit before it finished loading. Following this it dumped me into a match in progress where my team was behind by 25 points and there was 12 kills left before it was over.

My question is, why do players seem to vote for this map over any other option most of the time? What is the fun or enjoyment that I am missing out on this box of spam? It's literally nothing but spawn killing and spawn dying.

If you are a person that enjoys these, can you legitimately explain why? I'm not trying to make a troll complaint or anything. Just genuinely interested.

Is this what the modern call of duty experience is like?

Not gonna lie, i loved Shipment for the easy 50+ kill count. When i played OG shipment, (this new one isn't as good as the OG) it was very high kill counts: 60+ for top of the board, 30+ average. Which is the best way to progress weapons ranks. Then switch over to that other map I'm blanking on, to progress the specific kill type counters like crouched kills or longshots or mounted. 2 months of that and double weapon xps, would get you the final weapon camo.

Haven't played CoD in a year though because i realized that's all i wanted to play to unlock better stuff for weapons. Not even to play other maps or gametypes for those new weapons.
