not watched the full video but i've never known anyone that liked farm, TOWN GANG

[@DVGBlur]

Nobody likes farm? I’ve heard quite a few like it(I still prefer town though)

[@NorthEevee]

Farm was fun until you all went down just as you got the RPD from the box :\

[@brandogents6624]

My friend actually liked Farm more for the challenge. It's not bad getting to round 33 on 2 player co-op. Personally I prefer town too but I'm super used to farm cause of her.

[@unboxing_legend7708]

u can still see a few people who play farm here and there but it was because of videos on it just like tranzit to why it got so much more hate then it really deserves. its not a bad map but it sure is lacking. i feel like if farm had the buildable turret in its standalone map that u could build and a turbine u could build to power it, id then feel like it wouldve had enough for people to like it more and go for higher rounds. but as its stands it just lacks in replayability

[@ChickenTeller]

Town players be like, "step in this lava. It's good for you."

[@NorthEevee]

I'd love to see a follow-up to this video where you dig into the philosophy of Bus Depot. The way I always used to play it back in 2013 was as a short rogue-lite map before I had to go to school. I'd hop on, hit the box until I got something good and started training until I got down. I managed to get to round 15 at one point. One round less than the number one spot on the friend leaderboard.

[@TheExceptionalGamer]

That’s a dope way to play something like bus depot. If I did a bus depot video, it would be the longest one on the channel because of all the juicy content the map has to cover!

[@minigargantuan3788]

i wish that diner was an official survival map rather than just for turned, its got so much potential

[@TheExceptionalGamer]

I wish it had both tbh, I’m a turned lover. I never smashed it out or anything, but when me and my friends would hop onto it, it was a blast. Diner would be perfect competition to town, so I do see the potential

[@ulyssesdelamora3856]

Okay hear me out, power station

[@FPSpsychoYT]

Town Gang RISE UP! A Town Survival video was my most viewed for a while, actually what kick-started my KZbin channel. It's surprising seeing how many people loved the map, it was what really helped me learn the game and get better back in 2013/14. I would've loved Farm if it had Pack-A-Punch. The part of Farm I like is "The Walking Dead" aesthetic with headshots only and the time in which the map released.

[@TheExceptionalGamer]

Pack a punch for farm would've been a real game changer tbh. The memories on town were sick! Such a fun map to chill on

[@FPSpsychoYT]

@@TheExceptionalGamer Agreed! IDK why they ever stopped making Survival Maps man...such a replayable aspect that only saved TranZit from being Der Anfang levels of bad

[@unboxing_legend7708]

i think i should figure out at some point how to record my video on tranzit and bus depot or of all the standard maps that consist within tranzit at some point and show people the potential is has if people didnt give maps like farm tranzit and bus depot so much hate.

Farm was the first b02 experience i had on ps3,it has a place in my heart,i love the map

[@unboxing_legend7708]

people forget that technically diner should also be counted as the 4th map with the other 3 as its also in the tranzit map however its just a DLC map not ur natural 3. the other DLC maps wont count because they are other maps over the tranzit map, bus depot its self and town farm and diner which come from the tranzit map. if u really want to go for the max amount of playable maps then the 1st ever map from world at war as its also in tranzit as well as the 5th playable map by technicallity.

[@Ultimateman]

Town also has the Tombstone Perk ;p Great video👍

[@TheExceptionalGamer]

Yes it does! Thanks :)

[@unboxing_legend7708]

people often forget about tombstone and idk y. since i found out u can get every perk in town on multiplayer by hitting up tombstone going down once to be able to make this happen. i always now go for it 1st over pack a punch and box unless the box is outside. i still feel like people dont no enough or as much as i do on the standard bo2 maps. all except diner cause that bus depot and the easter egg one from world at war all count and ive not played enough compared to the standard 3.

[@yummypines6751]

I like farm personally

[@Addonzs]

Your videos are always helpful also the videos entertaining

[@joetheseventeenth]

i mean farm is objectively the worse map in terms of general playability imo. but it didnt stop it from being one of my fav base bo2 maps.

[@yamaka69]

Never met anyone who said lets play farm.

[@fategamingandhighlights]

town for me I actually love it, no jokes, I don't know why. I also really like farm and I think the lava is fine I love how creepy and gloomy it is

[@TheExceptionalGamer]

Farm does have a certain ominous atmosphere, which is a good quality of that map

[@ashton7209]

Ngl dawg I love them both 😂

[@joshnorton9691]

If you gave town 1 more point it would of been a 115 conspiracy 😆😆

[@halfaxle]

While me and my cousins didn't play Farm nearly as much as we plahed Town, there's a good argument for both Town has a lot of places for camping and training, but on Farm you really do only have each other to rely on, and I found both enjoyable in their own right

Everyone wants to talk about how much they hate the lava but nobody wants to talk about how the lava actually makes the zombies weaker therefore allowing the MK2 to be useful at higher rounds than it normally would be Also gigachad tranzit gang rise up

[@TheExceptionalGamer]

Ayo Lucario project! Tbf i didn't even think of it that way, really interesting stuff. The MK2 would melt them like butter lmao

[@TheLucarioProject]

Yeah I don't remember the percentage but basically if a zombie is on fire its health gets reduced by like 20-30% Don't have the exact numbers as that's not something I've gone in to do first hand testing on (I've got my hands full when it comes to IW weapon testing as that's the real rabbit hole) I just know that's how it works but it's fairly noticeable even on low rounds once aware of it with even M1911 maybe killing zombies a bullet or 2 earlier than expected for early game knifing.

[@edithpiaf7846]

Okay but the question is: do you really need stamin-up in Farm ? If you nned speed then equip the Chicom CQB, MP5 or Balistic knife overwhise in a matter of perks, both survival maps are just ok.

lava sounds like a skill issue it makes the map harder without lava town would be to easy and lava makes the map balanced town is infinitely better and more replayable + town has pack and better trainning areas which is far more fun than camping

It's a hard map, and most people that played town aren't good. Town is very easy, it's the ascension of bo2 which is why most people played it

[@mrgibus8278]

Farm, absolute classic

[@unboxing_legend7708]

i literally had a conversation with someone in the comments of a different video talking about the maps in black ops 2. to 99% of players regardless the excuse they give. it was and always has been a skill issue for u lot. theres not one point that has been made that hasnt proven why the map is too challenging over it being a skill issue. i hear stuff for tranzit like oh the denizens. u can literally knife them and shoot them but its a waste of bullets. the fog, thats due to hardware limitations for black ops 2 at the time and even then its still easy to navigate. the lava. even on town in a stressful situation, if ik that the streets and paths are being over crowded by zombies and its unlikely id make it thru them, i will jump over the lava if i have space regardless if im already hurt or just wrap back around and group the zombies up more its really not a problem. ive just never known people to be so bad at zombies and still be so bad at black ops 2 zombies all these years later. sure id pick town over farm but thats just due to the fact that there isnt much going for it imo. i can deal with the stressful situations and ik far more spots even on solo to train zombies with ease on those maps but for me its just not as fun to play so i agree that town IS better in that sense alone. im so dog at playing black ops 2 on laptop and im still tryna get used to it which im not even close but even with a delay to kill people and zombies, getting points and sometimes lagging over the place im able to out live literally everyone else whos tryna survive just on my own with no help. the one major thing i see people always screwing up is training the zombies correctly. people are always splitting up the zombies even on their own team missing shots and just making it worse for everyone involved. i dont see how its so hard to sit still or just back up and line up the shot and train them in any area of the map. the other thing i notice is people are stupid enough to rely and or waste bullets with the raygun on only like 1 zombie at a time shoot it close enough at them that they inflict damage onto their self and the fact they dont realise how bad the raygun actually is compared to half of the weapons in the box. self inflicting damage, weak even pack a punched on higher rounds and with double tap, not that fast to shoot and theres so many better guns that u can even double pack a punch to get unique red dot or acog sights with or just varients. i believe theres a way to get select fire on the FAl which although isnt too gr8 to use pack a punched or when u get the burst fire pack a punch, the select fire destroys zombies as its now full auto. The MTAR, under rated weapon even pack a punched, only issue is the ammo dump and how quick u run out of ammo. pack a punched its actually quite good and can go for quite high rounds and i think it can get the mms scanner which i dont think any other weapon can get. ADS with it thru the bar wall downstairs as ur in the process of running upstairs and u can literally obliterate a train thru a wall u wouldnt ve been able to see otherwise. even something like the ballistic knives. people dog on it even the pack a punched version because using it against zombies is pointless and ye tbh it is i agree. but the fact u can revive people who are downed without the need to use quick revive which helps in stressful situations providing ur a good shot and no one realises that it actually works well on tranzit if u dont want the avagadro roaming around and u keep the power off after pack a punching actually works really well. i used to use it when doing roles of who uses what type of weapons and where to train as i would take the medic role as i was the one who would be the least likely to go down and even then, half the time if i can see my downed tm8s from the 2nd floor of bar i will just aim at them shoot one from across the map and get them up b4 training my zombies and mowing them down again so i didnt have to move. for some reason people think sitting at the open destroyed part of the bar is better but it isnt. sitting right infront of the quick revive or sitting right next to the window actually trains the zombies better groups them more easily and even then u can just quickly flick onto the zombies at the window and mow them down before they break thru or just wait until u get hit while rebuilding the barriers to focus ur attention or slightly move out of their range to keep mowing down the train b4 they come thru. i find that when quick revive also goes away, sitting right into where it used to be works sometimes better as well. just a few more to list of guns that are under rated and better to use than people think you have ur typical LMG's and galil which we all know tends to carry high round games. the kap 45 when pack a punched still shreds for quite high rounds just runs out of ammo too quick. the duel wield and singular five seven both are gr8 for headshot trains and the RPG pack a punched when used correctly is actually decent in stressful situations as well as any large hoards of zombies.

[@SweetMeatTM]

yeah but its annoying when the zombies are on fire and u have to knife them and they blow up and damage you and you have to wait. you know, the only thing he said lmao. you need to hop off youtube

[@unboxing_legend7708]

@@SweetMeatTM i have no problem woth that either. u literally have a gun to deal with them if its such a big problem for u. even then its pretty easy to avoid a hit from a zombie and only take damage from the explosion like twice without jug i think 4 sometimes 5 times with jug before having to back up due to the blasts and the fire. literally 2 days ago i got hit 3 times hit from explosion damage accidently ran over 3 strips of lava while on red hp while stressing out when i had jug on and still somehow lived thru it so its quite easy to take a good beating even fro. the fire explosion damage from zombies by stabbing and from hits b4 the need to back up. and like i mentioned b4. if its that hard for u to deal with, just stick to whats easier and use ur gun if ur not capable of consistantly controlling and managing how to live while stabbing and taking damage from zombies that could be exploding and hitting u.

@@SweetMeatTM its not schizo its logical. the better you are at dealing with those game mechanics, the easier it is to play around them. its illogical to say it isnt. even then its ego mostly because ive learned that im the 1% of top players out there still on xbox at least. my skill is just above average tho nothing special, ik where my skill lies but ive not had a true competition or a rush from a fellow good player at my skill level or higher in years and the 1 place i had that rush from was from a game not many people know or play and those who do tend to play petty anyway. its like the fortnite equivilant of people hiding in bushes except people set up shop in a house and camp it all game or stay hidden in key parts of the map until they can kill u with a silenced weapon. even then most times they wont move cause they are too scared to die. its like tarkov with its 1 life system but plays like fortnite and cod at the same time.
