People have been flaming and praising the map - do you personally like it?

To be honest, I really do - theres something for each class, and some fights can last for ages. Nothing better than double jumping onto the rocks to get onto the 2nd and 4th cps too, it just feels great

It is rather fun. I actually like it. Plus it has CP in the name

_{once upon a midnight dreary, while i pron surfed, weak and weary, over many a strange and spurious site of ' hot xxx galore'. While i clicked my fav'rite bookmark, suddenly there came a warning, and my heart was filled with mourning, mourning for my dear amour, " 'Tis not possible!", i muttered, " give me back my free hardcore!"..... quoth the server, 404.}

I like it so far, no bad enperience in it, a little hard to get around on it the first round but when you found your path, its pretty good.

Tbh, Goldrush will probably be so much better than Badlands, but I like the different routes you can take throughout the fighting in Badlands

It's quite good. It has some nice, open area combat with a few unique twists but still has good indoor area combat where close quarter classes thrive. My only gripe about it is that sentries can defend the last capture point a bit too easily, often resulting in a stalemate.

I played it for a couple of hours, and found myself not very interested in playing it again. Probably, I felt this way because nothing felt unique about the map, and it felt like teamwork wasn't as valued. Everyone was just randomly running around the map doing their own thing.

The one thing I love about Dustbowl is the necessity for teamwork.

after 2 hours of playing it I know it's not bad, but Im yet to see just how good it is. For sniping, it's awesome. I found half a dozen awsm sniping spots the first round i played.

Agreed. Same for Dustbowl, too.

I love the map.

It is a beautiful map to play as the Scout on. You can get to the middle cap within seconds, and if you're lucky enough to get that one without any trouble then you've basically won the round .

I also love the layout of it. The way the trench basically goes diagonally across the entire level, meaning its very easy to get behind enemy lines.

All in all I think it's really good and definitely worth the wait.

I've had some long drawn out battles on it, and i've also had a lot of instant wins. I think it is far far better than cp_well and cp_granary. It's just so much more interesting to play on.

I also can't wait for Goldrush .

Hit and miss.

I like its speed and lack of statemates, not real place where either team gets stuck.

Don't like its small size and how quickly the last CP is capture, less than five seconds even with one guy on it. Once a spy got into on our CP and uncloaked, he capped it before a heavy that was 10 feet in front of it could turn around and kill him.

But hey, its better than most of the shitty custom maps and any new maps in TF2 are welcome, seven is better than six.

goldrush looks so cool. Objective gametypes > generic gametypes

I mean just look at rainbow 6 vegas multiplayer. I played the same damn map over and over -- but it was fun because it had an objective.
