Post: IW steals maps?

(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); Before you flame me, This isn't my video... & I'm neutral on the subject, IDK/IDC if it was actually stolen. Theirs just some similarities.

Backstory: The guy who made the map is actually a modder who submitted to an IW CoD4 map making contest back in march of 2008.

Obviously he didn't show an aerial view, So I highly doubt the layout is the same(Especially since its based off of brecourt). But their are some similarities, Including the Heli back in the distance. But It's no coincidence that they do a competition & 18 months later similar ideas are in their map. Once again, I'm neutral. IDK & IDC. & yes I'm aware that the Modder map was obviously based on CoD4 tools & textures, Which we're made by IW. He still believes it was based off his.

Your thinking is right but I think you might be wrong. They would have to agree terms if they used his map, but they haven't.
