I played through each of the new maps this morning for one match each, except for Killhouse which didn't seem to be in the rotation. Someone online speculated that it might be for Free-for-All mode only and not available on Team Deathmatch.
Creek is going to be one of my favorite maps I think. It's pretty large with several houses, a ravine with caves, waterfall running through it, and some nice hills. It's going to be a sniper's paradise. I switched to a sniper rifle half way through and with all the green on the level, it's still difficult to locate the enemy.
Chinatown looks like it could be fun once you learn the map. I think all of us were playing it for the first time so it seemed like everyone on both teams were just randomly running around. At one point someone on my team said that a lot of the other team were over by the Chinese restaurant, which was funny because I think there's like 3 of them in the map.
Broadcast was......confusing. I'm not sure I'll like that map. Though I remember the single player mission, it's going to take a while to get used to it. It seemed like all of my team was "stuck" in the TV station building and whenever we went outside we were  . Same thing happened whenever the other team actually made it into building, they were quickly  .
I'll have to load these maps in a Private match by myself and go into the mode where you can fly around the level to get better aquatinted with them I think. I wish I'd know about the ability to do that when I first started playing.
My XBL name is Biggie Munn by the way.  I bet most people think I like rap or something.

If you are into 50's Hip Hop, Biggie is a good choice.

I haven't played this online yet, but if I do I'll probably pull all those maneuvers. It's ****ing war.

I tend to play different maps using different styles. On the maps where I do the "laying in the grass waiting" style, it seems to hurt my own score more than anything. I don't usually stay just in one spot, but when you're playing that style, there is a lot of waiting around...usually to the detriment of your own score. However, there is a certain kind of satisfaction for getting a sniper kill.
Besides, let he who has not tossed a random grenade cast the first grenade.

The only two things that really bother me are Juggernaught and the grenade launchers.

i am the highest prestige level 55 you can get with the golden lmg. ranked top 500 in kills on the ps3 leaderboard.
my internet dong is larger than yours.
weapon of choice is M21 sniper. mobile like an assault rifle but far more accurate. i just got the collateral damage challenge today for the last time...headshot through the first guy headshot through the second.
