A Reddit thread is calling for Infinity Ward to add a map voting feature toCall of Duty: Modern Warfare 2. The game has been out for a few weeks, and players have noticed thatModern Warfare 2needs some fixes, changes, and new features. One of these is the ability to vote maps during gameplay. Public games inModern Warfare 2only feature a map rotation which doesn’t allow any sort of manipulation from the players on the server.
Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2is Activision’s and Infinity Ward’s latest installation in the world’s most popular first-person shooter franchise. The game has a robust single-player campaign as well as various multiplayer modes, including classics like Domination andnew additions toCall of Dutylike Prisoner Rescue.Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2is a reboot of the 2009 original title by the same name, but is set around the southern US border instead of Russia.

A lot of gamers are hoping that Infinity Ward will bring back map voting toModern Warfare 2, although it unfortunately seems unlikely afternot having the feature inModern Warfare. As with every game, people have preferences, and some maps are just not as liked as others. Map voting allows the server to determine, in a democratic fashion, which map they want or don’t want to play. It doesn’t help the situation thatModern Warfare 2has had issues with lobby freezing, and players not seeing which map they are loading into. This has increased frustration and mid-game logouts.
The Redditor that started the thread suggests two different map voting solutions toModern Warfare 2’s problem. The first is from the originalModern Warfare 2, where players could vote to skip the upcoming map. This would just continue the rotation and serve another random map to the player on the server. The latter is the map voting fromModern Warfare 3, which featured a vote between two maps. This would allow a bit more control over the next map.
Modern Warfare 2players have reported also that they are getting an awful lot of the same map. Some people have recorded themselves getting Border Crossing four times in a row, which is a very unpopular map. Also, players leaving before the game starts is going to create a worse experience for those that would like to play the less popular maps, as well. However, Infinity Ward could already be working on bringing back the features, and asModern Warfare 2Season 1 is soon launching with new maps, perhaps players might see it soon.
Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2is available now on PC, PS4, PS5, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X.
