The map is a long stretch of highway littered with cars for cover. So how does this differ from a familiar CoD environment? Three-lane maps, as they are referred to, feature three distinct lanes from your spawn to the opposing spawn.
Fans like this style because it breaks up games from becoming one giant disorganized free-for-all and provides a nice game flow. So as you can probably guess, they weren’t too pleased with this design.
