Battlefield 2042 has the same terrible map design as bf4, the constant forcing of infantry to run long distances from cap to cap without cover, dooming them to be raped by vehicle players or snipers whenever they dare leave a capture point. The only difference between the two being the absence of an operation metro rip off in 2042 so its shitty map design became too glaringly apparent to ignore and caused a deserved sperg out among the player base that couldn't retreat to a 24/7 meat grinder map as they could in Battlefield 4.BF4 was saved by the fact it had operation locker so players could stay in an infantry only map all day and effectively dodge all the other maps, and the fact it was unplayable for the first 12 months on PC so by the time most people returned some DLC maps had been released, so the horrendous launch map lineup could be more easily ignored and people could cope by playing operation metro and operation locker 24/7 servers, a coping mechanism bf2042 lacked.Although Bf2042 did have a potential coping mechanism to dodge the trash launch maps, in the form of the ported over bad company 2 and 3 maps in portal mode, DICE mistakenly turned portal mode XP earning off and killed this potential coping mechanism in the first week.
>>723033073BF2 was the peak.>BF VIETNAM>BF 1942Everything that came after was shite and demanded expensive NVIDIA that I couldn't afford at the time so became upplayable with extra garbage heaped on top.You cannot improve on perfection.It's like MS Word 2017 with all the extra crap a simple text editor doesn't need,>now comes with extra wombats and wine glassesjust to justify the $8000 price tag + $400 a month ass raping charge.
>>723033073They have forgotten that games are supposed to be fun and not a fucking second job.
>>723033481BF2 is literally unplayable by today's standard the shooting is beyond garbage. What are you talking about? You haven't played 2 in 15 years or more I bet.

battlefield is dead not buying
>>723033842*stopped playing
>>723033619the jet boomers are the biggest problem that makes bf2 unplayablea new player literally cannot and never will be able compete with a guy thats been playing jets nonstop and has never willingly set foot on land since 2006
>>723033073>Battlefield 2042 has the same terrible map design as bf4,both have better maps than codfield 6
Battlefield 4 is goodOP is gay
>>723035369battlefield 3 is better>>723035257battlefield 4s maps are complete dogshit, if siege of gibralter were in bf4 people would be calling it battlefield 4s best map by far
>>723035497Holy gay
>>723036323cope all you want you know its truebf4s maps are almost all dogshit especially the launch maps
>>723033073you're insane, bf4 had great maps with a wide variety of locations, the best in the series by farbf3 was just full of desert and some east europe mapsbf6 looks like more of bf3, with some american maps this time
>>723036882>bf4s maps are almost all dogshit especially the launch mapswhats wrong with siege of shanghai?
>>723037642the fact that half the server leaves when the tower falls down>>723037473>bf4 had great mapsno it didn't>with a wide variety of locationswhich all looked ugly>bf3 was just full of desert and some east europe mapsand they were all much better than bf4sthe average bf3 map is so much better than the average bf4 map its ridiculous
All battlefields have shit map design. It has shit game design as well.How the fuck are you gonna have a low ttk game when the map gets flattened with no cover LMAO
>>723038296>All battlefields have shit map design.some more than others
>>723033073Vehicle niggers deserve genital mutilation
>>723033073This problem is way worse on pc because half of the servers have instant vehicle respawns. Respawn timers should be longer than they are in base game to force vehicle abusers to think more carefully about how they play.
>>723033481>2142>shitethe only thing thats shite here is your opinion
>>723042494no one played 2142
>>723044605>le zoomzoom doesnt know older gamestypical
>>723033073I don't understand this idolization of 4 that began in recent years eitherBack when it came out I found it to be worse than 3 in every way, the only cool thing about it was the map with building
>>723033073Thank you for describing why BF4 maps are good.
>>723033073>BF4 was saved by the fact it had operation lockerthe same could be said about bf3 with op metro and grand bazaar. the truth is that vietnam, 2 and bc2 are the only games with good maps, and bc2 only worked because it changed a lot of the core gameplay
4 has the AEK which makes all infantry fights into "getting spotted by the AEK nigger and vaporized instantly without even being able to retaliate", regardless of map
>>723037473>some east europe mapswhich ones?there is only a french map and the rest are arabic/middle eastern
>>723033073BF4 kicks fucking ass and they should've literally just re-released it with slightly better graphics.

>>723046096>Kaiser Railroadiran>Sabalan Pipelineiran>Nebadan Flatsirannone of these are eastern europe
I don't know where the canon locations are set, but they look believable Eastern European besides maybe Nebadan Flats.
>>723033073I had like 600-800+ hours in it, so I have to disagree with anyone calling it bad. Actually that number may be astronomically higher but I do not care to admit the real figures, it's likely way more and I cannot say the number because I'm not proud of it. All I can say is that one year after release and from that point on I never stopped playing it.Whatever BF4 did just worked for me and it clicked. I preferred it over BF1, BFV, and I didn't play 2042 because I don't think it looked like the same game judging from the gameplay. Was nowhere near as polished. I don't believe I saw anything in the maps that immediately reminded me of it being the game I wanted to play. If 2042 was BF4 I would have been first in line, but it wasn't.
>>723045859>the same could be said about bf3 with op metro and grand bazaar. and damavand peak, along with having a functioning rush mode which made all the other maps fun too. BF4s maps were so bad it killed rush as a game mode altogether
>>723037936zavod 311 and hainan resort better than all bf3 maps
>>723045859>>723046868and nashar canals, and that other french map that was also fun on rushthe tehran map was also pretty fun on rushhell all of battlefield 3s launch maps were pretty fun on rush aside from 64 player metro rush>>723046975zavod is an 7/10hainan is a 6/10they seem great because they only have to compete with bf4s garbage map line up. If they were in bf3 they'd be considered mediocre

I agree with you, I was super hyped about it after bf3 and ended up playing like 30h before dropping it, I didn't even get the dlc maps and I paid the battle pass or whatever its name was at launch.The servers worked terribly, the movement was trash, and more than anything, the maps were absolute dogshit, the game didn't have single good one, it's as if the entire map designer team left and the interns did them.Dropped the series right there and haven't played a battlefield since. Looks like I didn't miss much since they apparently only got worse.
>>723035257>>723046817>>723047341i forgot to say in the OP when i say bf4s and 2042s maps are shit its in comparison to battlefied 3, not 6
Bf3s maps just looked so good, especially the DLC mapsBf4 looks like shit next to it unironically
>>723033073Yeah the stock maps in BF4 are fucking garbage. The worst part is that I live in a low-pop region and all the good maps being paid DLC meant that literally nobody played them.Jesus Christ, Shanghai was actual cancer dominated purely by helifags who I had never once seen on the ground in my entire time playing.
>>723034220thats pretty much every battlefield game with jets since the only thing that counters a good jet pilot is another good jet pilot and nothing else.
Man if you're posting about these BF3 maps being pretty at least just stick to the ones that aren't grey and brown middle eastern shitholes.
>nu battlefield fags when they have to defend a flag
I heckin love BF3
Few of these are over 4mb...
>>723033073you're supposed to use vehicles to move infantry from point to pointyou're also supposed to have a commander to air drop transports and coordinate the team
>>723051094Inaccurate pos main gun on this doodoo.
>>723051170I was an absolute menace with it. It's not hitscan, you have to lead a bit, but the constant chip damage on air means no repair, and combined with smoke and terrain, you cant lose to a jet. The anti-infantry dmg was nerfed as it would be super OP if it was an infantry shredder.
>>723051302Its so much worse than the US one. Feels like it's inaccurate, no matter if you're firing in bursts or just dumping everything until cooldoown.

Can't easily find Armored Shield map pics. I'll end this here.
>>723033619BF2 has always been unplayable because of jets. Because of the lack of spawnable infantry anti air launchers. The only good bf2 maps were the ones without jets. Like karkand and ghost town on the special forces dlc. The only somewhat good bf2 map I played with jets, was a custom map; that segregated infantry, ground vehicles and jets, mostly away from each other. They all existed on the map but barely interacted with each other, unless crossing zones or going into each other's zones. I forgot the name of the map, but it was america vs the mecs, had cap points in clustered urban areas that were specially designed for infantry and guntrucks like humvees to fight in. Jets and tanks could support from the outside but couldn't really kill inside the core part of the zone. There were several of these zones around the map. Tanks and apcs would battle inbetween these zones. And jets would battle in out in the sky above. There was one zone that was in the middle with big closed off structures, too large for infantry, but too sheltered for jets to bomb you consistently. Sight lines were long and narrow. Perfect for tank battles. Few people played it because it was a custom map on an unranked server.
>>723052972spoofed players, only that top american server and 1 of those german servers is full of real playersadmins competing with spoofed player counts killed bf3 because all returning players would end up in 50 different spoofed player servers instead of the real ones
>>723051152>you're supposed to use vehicles to move infantry from point to pointyou're also supposed to have a commander to air drop transports and coordinate the teamwow its just like bf2042
>>723045859take operation metro and grand bazaar out of bf3 and people can still play rush and have fun on the other mapstake operation locker out of bf4 and you have bf2042
>>723052041There are no battlefield 4 maps I look at and think “wow I’d like to play that again”they’re all pretty bland
>>723033842>I see no reason to go back now.then it must not be a good game, if it was truly a good game you would go back and continue playing it retard
