people don't always hate new maps. people just haven't like the last 3 released (breeze fracture and now pearl). Obviously liking a map is subjective per person, but usually you'll see a status quo of hatred for a reason. My own personal opinion of Pearl is that i'm indifferent to it, don't love it or hate it but i do find it quite frustrating on attack.

I dislike Pearl for the same reasons i dislike Bind. Every entry point on attack is a bottleneck without a solid way to clear angles if you're not flashing and smoking. B long, A main, Art and mid doors. all ways onto the site, and all an easy position for a defender to sit and hold that bottleneck, there's also enough cover to push out if they want to play aggressive. Unlike Bind which has no mid push, on peral both art and doors is fairly easy to hold for defenders. For mid doors all you need is a trip and a defender holding art who can rotate fairly fast if a trip destroyed is called out. A main is fairly close too for someone to sit in A link, so there's no real risk in someone just holding double doors.

Rotating on attack is quite a hassle also due to how large the map is, unlike Bind that has TP's which can more often than not get you killed, you've to take the extra 20-30 seconds to rotate and chances are because of the size of the map there's someone lurking from the opposite site.
