I mean, Midway isn't what it was, with today's participants. It was cool in it's time. However, I find the map uneventful and not producing any urgency. It's so much a sea and land map, that it's hard to get any cohesive gameplay going. By that, I mean I can spend the whole map in a sub or a destroyer or a PT boat.
I prefer Guadalcanal over Midway, these days. Midway had it's time when the servers were 64/64.
Packed Midway gameplay was cool as a land lubbers, sea lubbers or pilots. Now it's just TOO BIG. Take a ship or PT boat or plane...or whatever you like and the map ends up a 45 minute BORE. It ain't happening with me. Midway was cool in it's time. Not so much now.
The new modifications? Meh.
Guadalcanal back in...Midway out.
Guadalcanal isn't perfect either, but has more going for it than Midway. Even Guadalcanal tends to be brutal if you get too many leet pilots on one side. Every vehicle gets wiped out, over and over again.
