Best maps in order of preference

1) Ghost Train: most evenly balanced map (aside from artillery), fun jungle fighting.
2) Quai: as long as i forget about the unbalances. Other than that, the govt office is a VERY cool CP, and the fishing village is neat with the surrounding hills.
3) Ejod: so long as both sides have one of the cities for most of the game. Its a bit too easy for one team to become dominant and theres a domino effect.

Worst maps in order of...crap

1) Jabal: Theres no cover ANYWHERE of importance. The only area with cover is the city, but by the time the US team gets to the city they win 95% of the time anyway. Its also one of those maps with no hope, because if you are pushed back to your last grouping other than your main flag, you will lose the majority of the time.
2) Sunset City: I have, at most, had one enjoyable round in this map. If any map shows the domino effect, its this map. As soon as the Chinese hold construction and Market, its over for the US. Same thing holds true the other way around as well. There is very little room to fight back because of how the map is made, and most rounds end in a blowout for one side or the other.
3) Helmand: Fun if your british! Not so much if you are insurgent. Frankly I think its a pretty asinine way to balance a game/map. Balancing should come from differences in weapons that overall are equal. It shouldnt come from handicapping one side to hell but letting them respawn quicker.

It sounds like a lot of those^ problems are being fixed in .6, so im optimistic.
