Karachi is a medium-sized multiplayer map in Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2.
Overview
Karachi offers an excellent balance of open area combat, combined with building and rooftop battling. One of the map's main advantages for players is the variation of levels, allowing use of all weapon classes. The small corridors of the buildings benefit shotgun and SMG users where a quick fire rate would be ideal. The rooftop locations and upper floor windows benefits players who use sniper rifles, assault rifles and LMGs as their extended range and damage can be utilized.
The nature of this map isn't friendly to players who use the higher killstreak rewards. Often, airstrikes and helicopters rarely achieve kills because of the abundance of shelter in the many buildings. However, Emergency Airdrops are suited for the map as there are two relatively deserted areas at each main spawn point.
