Citadel is possibly one of the most obnoxious maps in crucible history
It's literally ''Spawn camping - the map''
Every match one team caps B and then spawn-traps the hell out of the other team
you spawn in and get immediatelly domed by some scout rifle user, then respawn on the other side of the map and get domed by a heavy weapon, then respawn on the side again and get domed by a super
it's just respawn => get insta-killed 5 seconds after => repeat
a wet dream for spawn campers, basically

Really? I don't mind it. I love using scouts on that map. When people try to spawn trap you, you just sit at the back with your favorite scout and pop them as they come down the walkway. It only takes about a minute of that before they get wise and stop trying it. Also, lingering grenades, like pulse grenades, are great for clearing out B. It's so enclosed, it's hard to stay out of them if someone throws one in there while you're trying to cap. And in those tight spots that lead out onto the walkway, they're good for that too.

I don't understand why they don't use the back hallways for spawning if the other team isn't in the vicinity. I've never spawned back there.

I never really liked citadel, even before they removed it for a while. Not a bad map, just eh at best.
-
The map is fine. Literally half a dozen maps that are worse....... Just play B and enjoy yourself.

No running aimlessly trying to find the next person to shoot they the next person is right there. Gives classic Bungie small map feel ( ie- Blood Gulch).

Citadel & disfunction need removing

Twilight Gap beats Citadel. Runner up would be Anomaly or Widow's.
-
I know I haven’t played in a while but you should be utilizing caves more often then you think you should

I only played Citadel once for Banner and it was awful. Other team got B and the match was essentially over at that point. Five minutes until Mercy was called of us just hoping to try and take B so we would have some chance at a comeback.

It's because B flag needs to be in the center room. It would fix how the map is played. Heavy needs to be where B flag is.

1 ReplyYes, but is it worse than Twilight Gap?

Big problem with this map is that it is not suitable for 6v6. Which is true for like majority of the maps in my opinion. I really don’t understand why bungie never even tested 5v5. Private matches with clan mates 5v5 were way less chaotic but still action paced. I mostly play trials because maps just don’t function well for 6v6. I understand that some people may like the constant chaos better.
-
If that’s the dreaming city map then yes. It’s the worst map in the game. Even worse than disjunction.
-
Its actually very small
-
Yeah that map is not the greatest. Feels very clunky.

I hate Citadel. One of the worst maps ever.
