Hangar

Hangar is a multiplayer map in Call of Duty: World at War. It is a decent-sized map, and is quite open. It is comparable in size, placement, hiding, and sniping ability to that of Call of Duty 4's map Vacant. As the name states, the main part of the map is an aircraft hangar in disrepair. This is a good map to make use of [Shotgun|Shotguns]] and Submachine Guns. This map is much easier to play if you are in a team deathmatch. The word: "Hide" is practically non-existent in this place. So if you are a "hide in the dark, then strike" kind of player, this map definitely isn't for you. This level is popular with people who open fire often.

Multiplayer Tactics
Take advantage of the open area. You want to have a gun that has good mobility and high damage. Mainly, a machine gun would do this with flying colors. SMGs at medium to close range work as well, because this map isn't very large.

Have a team and gang up on people. This is a big tactic in all game types and maps. This is definitely a place to stick together. If you don't, you will have a hard time with this map. Oftentimes a well oiled team can easily defend the hangar interior with ease, oftentimes sporting one or two snipers near the fighter planes and other players defending the entrances with Bouncing Bettys. You also have a better chance at killing players with a teammate as support; if you do not kill them (i. e., you die), they have a chance to kill the enemy. Do not "blob" with your team, a.k.a. sticking in a large group of people because you never know if an enemy is equipped with a Rifle Grenade which could mean a large kill streak for the opposite team. Try to spread out, but stay together.

Both teams spawn quite close to each other in Team Deathmatch. Try to throw a few grenades to soften up the enemy while they are still grouped together.

Trivia
In a cell in the 2 floor building near the Marine spawn, you can find a dead Marine and can hear a ghost of a Japanese soldier torturing someone from time to time.
