I've changed my mind about Five

[ZombieOfTheDead]

Also, this is the only zombie map where you really can't camp well, which is probably why a lot of people hate it.

What about COTD? It is basically impossible to camp with George around, or at least for long periods of time. In fact, it is very easy to camp on five (Pack a punch room). Besides, camping is boring. People need to focus less upon score and more on actual fun.

in COTD you can camp at the top of both zip lines fairly easily (if thats your thing), if you get overrun (or find George) while at the top of the ship, you zip down to the starting area which is great for running circles (not my personal strategy, but I've seen it successfully executed).

The PaP room in FIVE isn't great, but I've seen it work as well. I've also seen elevator rides used effectively

I don't think Five sucks, I think its just easy to get discouraged because its hard and if thought you were sick at Zombies this map can humble you very easily.

I have no idea why you say this map is hard, its v easy, its just not challenging enough. Since it is small playing with randoms is pain in the *** unlike with other maps. If you are really saying this map is tough I can take any challenge, set me a number and I'll beat it co-op or solo.

BTW solo does not count dude so don't be happy with those solo numbers. show us what you got on co-op and prove it through leaderboards.

Five still sucks.

Five does not suck. I got bored of Ascension after a while so I tried Five. It's right now my favorite zombie map. The only reason it sucks is because it wasn't made right for multiple players. A lone gunman stands a much better chance on Five.

man i love five, its huge, alot to do, more complicated, and just all out challenging

I'm trying to figure out how to delete this post because I've changed my mind about it. I just never played five enough...I don't hate it as much anymore. If anybody could fill me in on how to delete a post please let me know.

[way2g00d]

Don't think you can delete posts by yourself once someone has replied to it. Check with mods, they can help you delete it.

[yellow-card8]

so if the map is too hard, narrow, and challenging .... it sucks? and good thing you changed your mind do one favor for me, get a high round

yeah, I think five is great! I also don't think it's that hard. I got 35 solo, and 41 with 3 people. You just need to keep moving, but don't sprint and you can survive on the bottom floor.

Yea, people just hate it because it has no good camping spot. And while you do run around in circles, you are very confined in how you do it.

[DaPikmin]

Why is everyone hating on "Five"? I love the characters and how you can split up and still make it. The only thing I hate is the teleporters, and they take you to random places. The map is just a challenge for people from Treyarch, nothing more. It also gave hints to Ascension and moved the story line on a bit further.

It's also very creative to make a map on somewhere famous and in real life. And JFK is my fav president!

[Nathaniel.WV4]

Just because you cant do well on a certain map does not mean it sucks... it means YOU suck !! JOKE PLEASE DO NOT FLAME

Five offers variant and something different, i think its a really good and challengeing map, i mean if they where all as easy as Der Riese was what would be the point?

[yellow-card8]

^ to that guy, damn right

I think "Five" is just to make JFK a bit more useful in Black Ops, as he is only seen once in Campaign. Some people don't even remember seeing him. I don't blame them. You don't have to press one button for the"mission". :D

On five I normally role with m16 and mustang a sally. I don't use the box at all.

I stay up top until both players have 10k. One player buys all the doors and other upgrades his pistol. Doctor spawns and we camp the balcony and kill thief with mustang and sally. He won't even make it to the stairs. We use the bonfire to upgrade the remaining 3 weapons.

At the end of each round we flip to defcon 4. If it's not the doctor than we flip to 5 and go into the presidents room. All the zombies will spawn outside the door. We alternate players using their mustang and sally. Usually 6 from each pistol will clear out the initial group.

We often run two laps until all the zombies have spawned. Early on we shoot them with m16 and later on we go through the teleporters with the train until it takes us to the top floor and we trap them all.

If a player goes down on floor two do not kill any zombies. Run 1 or 2 laps around and then revive him when you have a nice train going. If you kill zombies they will spawn making it extremely hard to revive your team mate.

Good strategy, I go for AK instead of M16.

Well, the entire campaign was really "Press X to win". They went over the top with the scripted moments. It felt like a museum rather than a game.

The hardest zombie's maps:

First - Verruckt

Second - Five

It's not "the worst map". It's just hard. You need a diferent strategy than you use on the other maps.

I don't know which is worse-

Crawler zombies or the marathon zombies.

I hate Five so much cuz even though I don't mind running and gunning, it's so closed in I can't stand it. However, after reading various strategies, I've decided to give it another go in the coming days.

[Superhands]

Ok, first of all do not play on this map on solo because it is imposible to get to a high round.

LMAO not true AT ALL, you just need to be good at the game. The first 10 rounds are the hardest, after that you just run round the middle using the "rape-train" method. I've done round 68 on solo on FIVE.

I agree, although I've only made it to round 37 solo...the hardest part of Five is gaining enough points to open all the doors and getting jugg. After that it's cake work, especially if you have good guns.
