I've always hated the map, be it if I'm on the winning team, or the losing team, it doesn't matter, I never have any fun playing on Charlie mainly because as an Allie I'm nothing but meat for the Axis snipers or MG's and as an Axis all I do is camp and defend the objectives, which is either an exercise in tedium or frustration.
Tonight was an exercise in frustration because everyone on my team (Axis) was apparently more concerned with inflating their own K: D ratio's than actuallying playing as a team and trying to win the match. Literally I was the only Axis player who wasn't up in one of the bunkers, or on the line trying to pick off the Allied players as they spawned, I was running around trying to hold off the Allies, quite poorly, who had breached our defences and were quickly steam rolling through the map.
It's so much 'fun' to incessantly ask for back-up, ask for help, warn my team mates that there are enemies behind us, watch as they ignore me, as the objectives are captured, and they just head for the line, or one of the bunkers, and try to kill a few more spawning Allies before the match ends. I may be growing tired of playing on maps like Avalanche, Donner, Flash and Anzio adnasueum, but because of this, and experiences like it, I will continue to avoid Charlie like the plague.

I hear ya buddy. It is tough to get people on axis to come and help. Usually there are one or two people who will come to the last objective with you and help, but sometimes no one will.

Good advice for the allies to avoid the snipers is to swim in the water right away to either the far left or right. The sprint to individual obstacles and be patient. They give you a lot of time for the allies to win, don't be in a rush to get off the beach. Once you get off the beach take out anyone near you who is sniping, then go for an objective. Once you get an objective just take out as many snipers as you can. If you are able to take out a lot of snipers it allows more of your teammates to get off the beach and you don't have to worry about getting back to the beach to grab another satchel.

Quite literally, the worst...map...ever...

Heh, its infinitely better than overlord, the omaha map it replaced. Overlord was simply impossible for allies. Charlie has much better balance. People ignore map objectives and it can suck, but thats true on any map.

[Paddyjack]

Just like Shovel said, my big fun on Charlie is to capture an objective, then go on rambo mode and get all these axis snipers from behind. I usually manage to get 12-15 axis before getting killed lol.

It is so funny to watch the axis whine because they get killed and their precious K goes down lol

And I'm telling you, I'm ruthless on this map. Be afraid when exiting a tunnel.... I'm there.

Yeah, sometimes it is hard to exit the beach.... frustrating.... but still, I think this map is better than Switch.

I <3 charlie. I get my very own fg42, and with that I can defend one point pretty much by myself. And whatever point I defend ends up being the last one taken. I can usually shame some of my teammates into giving me backup at the last point.


Charlie > switch

[Stevo]

Charlie can be fun, but only when they teams do what they're supposed to do. It's the same with switch, it takes teamwork.

Things to do on charlie:



although getting killed by the MG at the end isn't really necessary. What you're supposed to do is kill him and set it up camping one of the Axis-spawn exits. Boy do they get pissed then. "OMFG quit camping spawn" is the best thing the allies can ever hear from the axis on that map. If I played drunk it would probably make me fall out of my chair.

I despise(d) Charlie with ever fibre of my being. For about ten months I refused to play it, I'd always go join TV I if it was voted in. Since I get such crapful ping on TV I nowadays, I find myself playing Charlie most of the time. I use it to sharpen my crap-ass sniping skillz, otherwise I don't really care what goes on in that map. It really does inflate the holy hell out of my stats; recently it's gotten to the point where I stop checking them every other day because they're horribly inflated and innacurrate.

And when two or three objectives are captured by the Allies, it really shouldn't be too tough to hold that last one. I mean, if there are a few snipers trying to hold them on the beach and slow down the amount of Allies getting through, and if there are like 9 guys surrounding the Big Gun... Axis just shouldn't lose that map.

charlie is a joke map. It looks nice but there is nothing fun about it.

The only fun beach map in dod was omaha. spawn camping the beach with a kar bayonette = win
