I do not like Tunnel maps

That's the Sister Solaris arc, done after unlocking Alpha. 

I don't always enjoy the maps - but for me the worst map is the one for the last mission of Renault SF when you take out the eyeball. 
I recognize the intent behind them, to create a bit of geographical challenge for the player. It's all good. 

That map confuses me.  There is two possible places for the fight.  The story arc is in one and the SF the other and I always get them confused.  Then i second guess myself.  Basically I ALWAYS go to the wrong damn room

To be fair, the majority of the hated maps stated in this thread were designed for a time when players didn't use travel powers in doors due to the significant endurance cost. Players moved a lot slower, with no inherent Fitness and teams moved slower because the damage meta wasn't as pronounced then either. Players actually had to use Rest between large mobs to get their health and endurance back, even up to the Level 30s. They were also designed using duplicates of floors with similar designs because it was faster for the development team to pump out generic maps instead of unique ones like Frostfire's map.

Cake room is cool. Council pool room is cool. Rooms that can break up the team make for more interesting fights. I like catching aggro, having to run, accidentally aggroing something else, run from that and then have to fight back to the team on a duo with some random Defender I didn't notice until then.

 

I know that a large section of the playerbase likes to clump all the bad guys, hit their chain and watch the numbers go.

 

Variety is the spice of life.

Yeah, but if you're looking for glowies or hostages, it can take forever.

Or trying to hunt down that last stupid mob hidden away in some hard to find corner...

 

Not really worried about time since I solo...the cake room isn't that bad otherwise. Pool room...yeah. That one is annoying...and not really serving any discernible purpose. Fish farm? It sure isn't a water purification type set up...at least nothing I recognize from the water treatment plants I've worked on.

I always assumed it was a spa or a bathhouse. They work underground. Vampires and fascists are typically fastidious and tidy types. A bunch of council boys go have a soak in there after a long hard day of digging, oppressing and nictus husbandry.

Oh, annoying mission map.

"Cut off Black Swan's power"

 

Since that's the one where Black Swan is somewhere outside the sphere you wind up hunting thru the fog a lot.

I recently redid this mission after twenty years and thankfully remembered to go right to the sphere

yes, one of the missions is in the sphere.  (Part of the arc)

The single one, she's outside somewhere

That one I avoid. Too much area to cover even with a targeting macro

One time I did that one she spawned on top of the sphere. I spent SO FREAKING LONG scouring the islands for her, then finally peeked up top and got so mad.

Yeah, she was "arrested". Body? Oh, no, trust me, I put her in jail. Which one? Oh, you've never head of it. It's in Canada.

Trust me.

I will nominate the ruined hospital maps (like the one Mother Mayhem and Malaise hide out in). Junk and curtains scattered in the hallways everywhere, that even my superpowered character can't brush aside! :O

Wretched map.  The overclutter diminishes the dread the place is supposed to inspire.
