Last thread/poll on this topic I found was back in April.
bsn.boards.net/thread/8640/favorite-map
I thought after the recent amendments through Apex missions it might be worth to do a little refresher. Just pick your favorite three maps. And yes, I'm aware not all of them are (yet, or ever will be) in rotation.
Mine are No. 1 - Sandstorm - Cause it allows sniping, camping, provides both huge open spaces and many covers and is my number one guinea pig firebase. Evening version is gorgeous. No. 2 - Aqua - I love it for the scenery/landscape. But game wise comparable to Sandstorm, open space plus beautiful covers. Lot's of variety in playing, I'm really eager to see it with remnants and outlaws as well. No. 3 - Icebreaker - Sniper's dream setting.

My favourite has to be Aqua, I find the others pretty boring. None of the maps really stand out and ME3 had much better level design overall. I could never get bored of Glacier and White.

Aqua, Paradox (love dropping enemies off the side with the HA), and Sandstorm. Same here, Icebreaker would be fourth. Really would like hazard maps, though...

Aqua probably just because it's new. Then Icebreaker (Daytime) since it's new; the normal Icebreaker is probably my least favorite map. Then Remnant Vault, because our short list of maps is pretty stale.

I like all the ones that the good players hate. Zero Magma Paradox Haha, as I do not consider myself being a good player I can second I very much like Zero and Paradox as well. 4ish to 6ish in my personal subjective order.
I would have preferred to place a poll where you can sort all maps in ascending/descending order giving a more complete picture for any voter. However either that's not possible or at least I didn't catch on how to do this. This way the picture is more indirectly displaying the preferences.
Either way thanks to everybody voting. It shows some pattern...

Only one I really dislike is Sandstorm. Too much verticality. I get tired of chasing enemies that jetpack up, drop down, jetpack up, drop down, etc.
I like Paradox, but never play it due to stability issues. Someone disconnects at least 40% of the time.
Zero's probably my favorite. With friends it plays very fast. With PUGs I get 70% of the map to myself, but don't have to eat ALL of the aggro. Like soloing lite.

I like all the ones that the good players hate. Zero Magma Paradox I don't hate ay of them. Zero gets the shit farmed out of it but in the end its very fast with close corridors and cover. Makes a great map for the sari adept, gladiator, etc.. Run into a room, clean it out then move on to the next. On some maps if you have to run 80m to get to an enemy you might be dead or your shield powered lance will not be operational when you get there. I've actually reverted back to sniping as a change of pace and I find I like just hanging on the roof of sandstorm and picking things off. Its a nice change of pace from running full throttle...

I fucking loved Glacier. Also makes me miss grabs.

The Remnant vault(the big one) is by far my favorite. I just really love to have to move during the battle. Firebase Aqua is a pretty beautiful one, and also one of the biggest. I really enjoy it. For my third pick I'll go with Paradox. Nice decors, but this map seems to suffer with framerate/CTD
The rest are good, only Firebase Derelict is the one that I enjoy the less

Icebreaker is my least favorite. ...Other maps I favor all equally.. I think I agree about icebreaker because I pretty exclusively pug. Icebreaker is the epitome of a map that will be good if you have a good team of friends that coopeate but a horror show if you don;t as it has a lot of places that naturally filters you apart, much like FBCondor did.

The enemies move funkiest on that map... and love to riot from several roofs to make u suffer... lol I don`t mind playing Vanguard or certain classes on Icebreaker though... Vanguards have some advantage on that map because enemies are often separated among large map. haha

Funnest thing on icebreaker is to sit in the corner of the building to your left when you spawn in. Everything comes in the front door and stragglers on the side. Kill it all!
Fun to camp there for a game or two and enjoy the hectic rush...then it gets old and you move on...

Fun to camp there for a game or two and enjoy the hectic rush...then it gets old and you move on... I would like to try camping there. It sounds fun to go two on two for each door. I saw one Human Male Engineer camping there playing very well... and that said, I never seen other people camping there. Most PuG players try to camp on the highest roof area or inside the tunnel passage way. Both extremely ineffective.....

Wow. Lots of votes for sandstorm and zero. I hate those two maps. there is no real flow to either one if you like running around. Sandstorm is the worst with that if a pug or two goes to the roof and draws everything up there.

Remnent Vault is my fav. The layout is really great for 'holding the line' - which is partly what made ME3MP great.
