So I have been playing zombies for a longggg time. Not as much as all of you guys but I still have been plying. I thought traps were fine and dandy and I really never took advantage of them. But probably a month or two ago I decided to actually look at Kingjaq. I wanted to see his strats and stuff. What I saw kind of upset me. All he was doing was running from trap to trap. Don't get me wrong he has a LOT of skill and dedication (i lack dedication lol. i start dying at 45 because I get "bored") I just thought that he would be running some super fast train or something.

After digging deeper I found that almost every high round gameplay from anybody involved running from trap to trap in the best of ways.

So in my opinion I think traps are bad for a map. Not for the casual player but for the high round player. it restrics the map to one section. I think it would be fun to run in spiral staircase or down at the docks. But there are no traps and I would feel that I am waisting my time because I could be going faster.

It might just be that Im kind of already bored of mob of the dead (at least solo) because I already hit 50. But I think it may be from the trap. It may be because I have already played countless hours of zombies. (coming up on 400k kills)

Discuss please?

I would have completely agreed a week ago but after getting to round 69 (nice) (and getting the update and being logged out lolz.. ) and using the sweeper (blundergat PackaPunched) and vitriolic withering which became completely noneffective and not having the hell's redeemer the only option for me really was to use the traps specifically the one at the Cafeteria as the Sweeper and Vitriolic withering which are considered the highest damaging weapons in the game besides the hell's redeemer were just not efficient enough with the ammo.By the time it would take to kill maybe 5 zombies in a train with the sweeper I had emptied half my reservoir granted the Vitriolic withering was actually still a 1 hit kill but only with the zombies you stuck,the acid AOE was completely useless at that point and the only use the gun had was distracting the zombies if it looked like I was going to get trapped from overlapping the train.. which turned out to be very useful as I don't want to knock the gun.But the frequency of max ammo's and the amount of ammo I was using were not enough to keep training the zombies at that point so it seemed the only option was to pick up the Hell's Redeemer which would've taken maybe 3 days to finish a round at the Golden Gate bridge with JUST the Hell's Retriever or to use the traps and maybe a wall weapon such as the MP5 PAPed. For the record I would say Traps are bad BUT I'm still going to use them at round 50 , 60 +

And here's the Video of me without the Hell's Redeemer

I did train + shoot the zombies and use the trap up untill around Round 40 - 50 or something but eventually it was just taking too long and I started using JUST the trap :]
