For the record I like Alpha Omega, Radioactive Thing, Die Rise, Revelations, Shaolin Shuffle and the BO3 versions of Nacht, Verrukt and Shi No Numa but these maps are either hated by the community or are very controversial. Point is, paid DLC doesn't guarantee quality.
Also a lot of people don't like the BO3 WAW ports because they "lose atmosphere and because you're too powerful the map is too easy."

I thought DLCs was paying for an update/additional content not quality
I don’t think it matters if they were paid or not they just get no time to work on maps anymore being forced to work on 2 games at once and realise a new map every season and a half
I like most of the maps listed here. I agree bo3 waw maps have less aura it’s just the way the game feels and the guns you play with
paid dlc just forces me to play the maps because i spend money on it. if its trash or goated i have to play it because i aint gonna waste money
Zetsubou hate will not be tolerated
such a stupid argument because you could make the same post with the “bad” maps weve had from free content and use that as your whole argument. Does anyone have an actual intellectual point to make about this discussion or is it just going to be endless “my maps are better than your maps” like were a bunch of school kids?
The frozen dawn is a top 5 zombies map, lmao what the hell is the list 😭😭
I swear some of yall deal in absolutes. The ratio of bad to good for paid dlc is much better than free versions of dlc. This doesn’t mean ALL of them are good. At least we have maps like die rise that went out of its way to be different and unique. I can’t call any of the dark aether maps unique in any way.
I like all of these maps more lol
Nah that’s a clown take.
Bait used to be believable 💀
Beast from Beyond isn’t a shit map, and I’m tired of everyone pretending it is.
Bruh a lot of these maps are better what is this take
who tf hates shaolin shuffle ??
Is this in relation to the previous post that guy made with free dlc, bundles etc?
Using non treyarch DLC and comparing it to Treyarch BO6/Cold war is moronic, it’s not held to the same standard, and those modes were not in the same stratosphere when it came to 3ARC zombies so let’s just remove those.
Now onto the actual points, the fact you have Verukt twice and shi no numa, is ridiculous
Nobody said paid DLC confirms quality. But quality is absolutely congruent with the older DLCs. Everything is opinion at the end of the day, but collective mass opinion in any democratic setting is a vote of collective objectivity and most people agree, the paid DLC was in much higher quality, when you compare BO6/Cold war it’s all shite in comparison and that’s largely because skins and bundles are their highest monetary gain. You might not buy a skin, but someone else will spend enough for 15 other people, then the maps are not the main concern, so yes you’re getting a free map, but it is made with you in mind as the afterthought
I also blame the blatant engine and mechanical copied CODs making each game just feel exactly the same, which causes any new content to feel familiar and unexciting regardless of how good the map is. This is all to say, this hyperbole of “quality is congruent with paid DLC” was never an argument, the people who say this have seen the downfall of quality as the profit margins veered to the side of cosmetics rather than playable content. If you think that’s not a congenital problem that started when skins became the focus of profit, then you’re incapable of seeing the larger picture and didn’t follow call of duty for long enough to understand
if you think a third of these are truly bad you need to get your head checked
Verruckt getting shadessss
Bo1 Moon was goated idc what anyone says, also the thing is even tho these maps were “bad’ imo most of them are still better then the current maps we have now my thing is they are all diffrent they all have there own personality and while the bo6 maps have persoanlity they arnt like these maps.
The only map i truly hate with a passion is der anfang that map is torture
Say what you will OP, but these games had much more content at maintained release windows that were rarely ever broken. Were some maps bad? Sure. But let’s not kid ourselves and say maps like DE wouldn’t have ever existed today.
It’s not that every paid DLC map is good, it’s that there is no free DLC map that compares to DE, Origins, MotD, etc.
Fuck free DLC, it’s all garbage. Paid at least has 90% great.
You literally put moon on this list. And turned??
Paid DLC maps were definitely better. Generally.. Of course not every map was a hit (and I have only played the treyarch ones) but also dev team was better, warzone didn’t exist etc. BO6 has definitely made some great steps in changing that though.
Also if you hate verrukt I hate you
Wtf is moon doing here 😭
Half or more of the maps you posted are more fun to play than origins. 😬
I have already said this on all platforms for this debate, but the people advocating for us having to spend upwards of $110 to experience a game’s full library need to get checked into a mental asylum
It’s crazy how this community gets in between maps
Like we got terminus Citadelle and Shattered Veil for free, all quality maps. Not Origins Mob or Der Eisendrache level, but at the very LEAST upper echelon of maps
We fought a dinosaur, kraken, and the guardian for free when they “weren’t trying” because it was free. Yet the conclusion of the Aether storyline was an escort mission locked behind an entire season pass
Why do you have bo3 remasters in here? Also it’s insane that veruct gets mentioned twice for waw and bo3 when a good chunk of people love it’s atmosphere especially as the second map ever created
Man I remember getting the map packs free for World at War because I was on PC. What a time.
Bro putted moon and verrückt in it lol
these maps are all quality its just the gameplay loop for them isnt for everyone and some require greater skill than others
Bro might be on to something
thanks for proving our point
