Wasteland

The Map
Wasteland is a Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 multiplayer map. This map is a remake from the original Call of Duty map: Brecourt. It brings back the feeling of the fan favorite Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare mission All Ghillied Up. It's a mainly open field with few pieces of cover with dead trees, brown bushes and debris. There is a bunker with three entrances in the middle of the map. The conditions are perfect for sniping; ghillie suits disappear in the bushes. The barriers are marked with radiation signs, straying past the border will kill you after a few seconds, much like minefields are the barriers in Call of Duty. Some houses on the edges of the map provide some cover from the open ground.

Tactics
Although it is a perfect sniping map, most people like to camp in the bunker. Anything that makes you stealthier is ideal such as going prone or going with a silenced weapon. Also thermal sights are a great way for weeding out snipers although it can be hard to find those that are prone, due to the undulating nature of the map. Smoke grenades will have some benefit when crossing open ground, except most snipers on this map prefer to use thermal sights to spot enemy ghillie snipers.

Trivia

 * This map is a remake from the Call of Duty multiplayer map Brecourt, similar to how Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare's Chinatown was a remake of Call of Duty ' s Carentan multiplayer map.
 * This map contains the church seen in the mission All Ghillied Up (although it is inaccessible), the statues holding the PPSh-41, and other similar buildings. Even the things inside these buildings are still the same (chairs, tables, posters etc.).
 * Chernobyl nuclear reactor number 4 (the reactor which caused the disaster), can be seen in the distance.
 * You can see apartmets with a thermal scope
 * This map is open with very little cover making it a Sniper's heaven and a CQB nightmare. Although there are ways around this with stealth type classes.
 * This map features such little cover from overhead that air support becomes very valuable in getting kills, and creates a good chance of getting the nuke.
 * It is likely that "Wasteland" is right outside of Pripyat as the Chernobyl Nuclear Power Plant can be seen close by and several Bloc style apartment buildings can be seen in the distance.
 * A teddy bear is in the tunnel with the RPGs and laptop.
 * What were land mines preventing curious players from leaving the battlefield in the CoD2 version are now radioactive zones.
