    It was taken off the servers so the only time you will play it is via P2P matches.

    yeah, usually i play quick match team deathmatch and yesterday i was on for a bit but never came accross that map. feels like i rotate through most of them but that one hasnt come up in some time. i asked a friend and he said he hasnt seen that map come up while he's been playing for a while either. he thought it was dropped bcz of a glitch or something

    A lot of people didn't share your love for this map and posted about it so much to the point that it was removed. Their biggest dislike was the top of overpass which only had one access point.

    Over pass? Eh, I played on it recently in classic execution.

    It's one of the most unbalanced/annoying maps to play MP on. I encounter it like once a month.

    It's there. And to the people saying it is only available in p2p matches is wrong. Once FoN came out they put it back on the servers, unless I'm confused.

    People didn't like it for a good reason.

    It's not just that the top of the overpass has 1 entrance. It's that the top of the overpass ALSO allows you to instantly cross the opposing team from the moment they leave spawn with perfect cover any time you need it and no flanking risk at all. Hell, simply having someone at the top of the stairs and someone off to the side is a strong cross when you try to actually push up there.

    In TDM, that means a 5+ minute match really ended in the first 30 seconds. Overpass is easily the worst map from any of the GoW games. It's not even close.

    This is no longer the case. It is now back in circulation because of a mistake when Pete was updating the UI and putting in new play lists. He said removing one map from the playlist was too tedious a process. So he left it in. It is in fact back in the rotation in the vast majority of playlists.

    So once Gears 3 releases, when you use the torque, take a bit of pride in knowing you helped make it better

    I suppose the question is why would you want to play that map?

    Nah, in all seriousness it does pop up in Guardian and the FoN playlists quite a bit so play those I guess.

    Agreed, although it's not as bad as Stasis. Overpass is terrible on MP but good for Horde. Stasis was good for nothing and was just terrible full stop.
