What's with everyone hating on Olympus
I think it's the best map they added in the game. Would be a shame if they ever changed it drastically, or removed it overall.

I don't get why it's so hated, I never see reasons either just "it should be deleted"

It's probably because they don't pay attention and fall off the map

Because it isn't world's edge or king's canyon.

olympus is a map recommend for warzone players wich love to camp, the map is away to open, u can't even play for 5 mins without found a squad already with red shield because the "sniper farming shield" and idc if people judge me for don't like it, its just impossible on maps like that specially with the annoying cars trolling over all map:gearthumbsup:

It's my favorite map, I haven't seen much hate for it, but I don't really understand the hate

Olympus is so freaking horrible to navigate through.

Too many locations to camp in, the map itself is open. Getting punished for moving around should not be a thing, especially in a game like this.

If anyone played Warzone... it's the same issue there.

There are 2 metas: either get a truck and run over people/use it for mobile cover or hide in a building.

Not a single other option is given because of how easy you are taken out in an open field and Olympus is the same, just without trucks for safety and other stuff.

Edit: it's also not "hate" for the map, it's just not as good as other maps. It's still acceptable, just below average imo.

Agreed, Olympus is definitely in my top 3 maps.

I'd say it's a solid third place

Yeah, some randoms I queued up with yesterday were hating on the map and it was mainly this reason lol It's my favorite one. Funny to see the comments about camping when people are usually rotating in pubs in my experience, the only exceptions I can think of is around grow towers area and waterfall which I wouldn't mind see those get reworked.. I see more camping in WE and KC.

There are really few people that actually hate Olympus.

Objectively speaking Olympus is the best map of them all. It have the most unique POI's, it's not flat, the distance between locations are not far, so you not get bored, and overall have the best rotations in the entire game (really good jumptower locations, Phaserunner, Trident), the bright colours makes easy to spot enemies and really appealing aesthetically so people are not getting bored of it that fast as the other 2 maps.

Yeah I was thinking the same. World's Edge is easily the most campy map of them all. The entire map is a huge city with the same buildings all over it. Furthermore, the map is so segmented by large buildings, mountains and lava, that even if you would like to push forward you couldn't. That being said, most teams are camping in houses and defending the very few choke point rotations on the map.

In the other hand Olympus is probably the most fast paced and least campy map of them all. Not only have great rotations by default, but you can even hop in a car or just jump in the phaserunner and rotate through the entire map within seconds. People who saying that olympus is campy is smoking some serious crack.

Also, I'm not sure what they mean they farming armor with snipers on Olympus. Snipers in such a bad spot since Season 4 that no one ever touch them unless it's a Kraber. The lack of Sniper presence is one of the main reason why shotguns and CQC weapons are so dominant in the first place. Reading these comment just feels weird.

I think because it's been in rotation for the last 4 seasons
