Paris is becoming indefensible

General Discussion

No matter what you think of the map, weather you leave as soon as you see it pop or you stay and play as best you can, defence is becoming an issue.

I played a game today on Paris and we were down to 4 people as soon as the game started. We were on defence so that’s point 1 gone. While we were trying to muster some resistance on point 1 the attackers generate ults faster than us. Point 2 gets overun and that’s that for point 2.

This is becoming more and more common for me. Am I imagining things and getting bias from elsewhere about this or with people leaving on defence is Paris to easiest map to double cap in the game?

Edit: I know Paris isn’t in comp. That doesn’t make a difference to the problem.

I don´t know what rank you played or even if you played ranked but, by my opinion, point 1 is very ez to defend, due to it only having one choke. So put some shields and a bunker and you´re done. All the maps are done balanced so i find it very hard to believe that you always lose while defending

But i agree on point two, it always get captured

Whilst you are right in theory… You haven’t read the OPs issue.

Because a lot of people just leave when they see it is Paris… you rarely have 6 to start the game.

Added on to it being QP where there is no coordination… It is a bit of a 2nd point hold game.

If it helps, Paris is no longer in the comp rotation alongside the other malcontent that is Horizon Lunar Colony.

Hot take… Horizon is the best 2CP map…

Paris isn’t in the comp rotation for that reason.

I am not sure if you noticed… But there is a pretty big clue that they don’t play ranked, thus that response is a little unhelpful…

Even more so, their problem wouldn’t exist if it was played in ranked.

If you ain’t noticed, I simply stated a fact acknowledging that the map isn’t fair, agreeing with the OP. Your response wasn’t helpful…

You might want to correct the beginning of this to make it grammatically correct.

I know you are a pedant for things like that.

You might want to recheck that because there’s nothing wrong with it. This is coming from the guy that thinks “You’re” is “Your”. :slight_smile:

Nice try. x

It was your pedantry that got triggered by my type.

Your mistake there is a horrific use of the English language.

12

Hahaha you’re making a complete fool out of yourself, stop. :slight_smile:

Have a good weekend, IT’S COMING HOME!

If you are typing that, you are not a football fan… Maybe focus on things you know.

14

I know where you are coming from, I don’t play too much ranked myself. On Paris there are two flanks on the first point, enemies can flank all the way around the second. The best solution in defence, is usually sheilds, turrets or skilled snipers.
This is my opinion, I hope it helped

Small wonder why I always loathed that map back in the day… At least spinning on that statue as a Ball was fun all things considered.

16

Question is… did you spin on it while shouting “weeeeeeeeeeeeee” really loud on voice??

If not, you are not playing the map correctly.

17

It’s funny because it happened on no limits. And I actually said that.

Paris i understand. Its a very bad map. It would be alot greater if they cut away the waterfountain area between 1st and 2nd point.

Horizon Lunar i dont get, that is a fun map, and its really ez to attack and defend.
But i guess people just dont know the tactics to attack lunar.

And i gguess the area between pt1 & 2 also could be slighly reduced, but … its still alot better then Paris, becouse travel path can be minimized by running on the right side from spawn room… while paris force you to take 2 equaly long paths or a 3de extra long.
