Multiple outlets report that players of Call of Duty: Black Ops 2 are frustrated by repeated match voting for the same maps. In particular, players say the voting process often results in the same three choices—Nuketown, Hijacked, and Raid—appearing nearly every match. Both sources attribute the heightened visibility of the issue to recent platform releases of older Black Ops titles on PlayStation, which have drawn more players to the multiplayer modes and intensified the pattern of map selection.
While the articles focus on player complaints, they describe a consistent problem: the matchmaking lobby map vote tends to be dominated by a small set of popular maps, leaving other available maps underplayed. The tone across sources is based on community responses urging other players to choose different options, framing the repeated selections as disruptive to normal gameplay variety.
Overall, the reporting centers on player demand for more varied map voting, with no competing claims about changes to the game’s voting system or matchmaking mechanics.
