thats where I have the most fun
#battlefield-2042
karmic egret
karmic egret
yeah the A objective is bad
calm bison
But besides that everything else is either fine or good
karmic egret
if it had a levolution style event it could be good
calm bison
It’s not too far to get to the other objectives
ebon pilot
A should've probably been put inside
calm bison
The map overall plays great
calm bison
A should've probably been put inside
Yes
karmic egret
i mean all battlefield maps have a no mans land area to them
calm bison
The problem with maps like Hourglass is that it’s too wide and the action is spread too thin
fervent rose
sure but they are massive spaces in 2042
crisp dragon
if it had a levolution style event it could be good
a levolution to collapse the building like shang-hai would be amazing, aslong as they dont have the haze like shang-hai
calm bison
The problem with Flashpoint is that it’s too much all at once
A good battlefield map on CQ should have ideal amounts of chaos and downtime
fervent rose
flashpoint would be great if it wasnt for the 7000 vertical angles to worry about
calm bison
Like Orbital
karmic egret
The problem with Flashpoint is that it’s too much all at once
and the rocks being snipers heaven
spearhead is the best linear map
calm bison
Renewal is bleh because although it’s got a small walk between objectives it’s got that big ass wall that basically makes the map stale for a good while
Kaleidoscope is just whatever
karmic egret

and the green area being basically a death zone
misty portal
works well on breakthrough just saying don't get mad or anything
calm bison
Discarded is terribly buggy
karmic egret
Kaleidoscope is just whatever
kaliedoscope is likely the result of dice going on an acid trip
calm bison
IDK what DICE did but damn whenever I play discarded I always have issues with it
One time I played and vehicles were spawning in invisible
karmic egret
discarded is perfectly functional for me
calm bison
Sometimes it works just fine
karmic egret
its actaully a really good map now
calm bison
It plays just fine now
karmic egret
Breakaway is s tier
calm bison
But damn it’s hit or miss when it comes to stability
calm bison
Breakaway is s tier
YES
fervent rose
not on breakthrough
calm bison
Oh my god yes
fervent rose
unless the S stands for shit
wide shore
Breakaway is s tier
S for shit
calm bison
Breakaway on Conquest is the perfect map
wide shore
Jinx
karmic egret
like DICE had some divine intervention on the breakaway rework
misty portal
conquest not even once
karmic egret
breakthrough on the other hand eeehhhhh
wide shore
I think the remake of the map is 50x better. But I still don’t like it.
fervent rose
the rework layout on bt is a fucking disaster
calm bison
I almost exclusively play CQ so I don’t have BT problems
fervent rose
two pointless sectors followed up by the worst spawns ive ever seen in bf maybe on the oil rig sector
calm bison
Whenever I play BT it’s just loaded with sweat
fervent rose
the defender experience in breakthrough is a genuine nightmare
unless you're playing Exposure
then it's funny and moronic
karmic egret
the defender experience in breakthrough is a genuine nightmare
thats why i dont play breakthrough
misty portal
translation: when I play BT I don't find people confused for what to do to farm with sniper or vehicle
fervent rose
oh no theres plenty of those types in bt too
fervent rose
the idea that BT is only "try hards" is wildly incorrect
calm bison
Breakthrough in 2042 is just unfun
fervent rose
many many bad players too
misty portal
but more often than not breakthrough people know what they tried to do when they died
karmic egret
just give attackers one Gunship and one MBT and maybe a latv
calm bison
Give them a jet
karmic egret
done balance solved
wide shore
Best map hands down in the whole game is Orbital. And I don’t think it’s particularly close.

Yes. THANK YOU

eeeehhhhhhhhhh
fervent rose
just give attackers one Gunship and one MBT and maybe a latv
that's only one potential mortar and 1 air tank thats just not enough explosive spam sorry - Dice
fervent rose
air vehicle meta existed in bt before and it was arguably worse
calm bison
"noo I spent my summer learning to farm infantry with jets let me win!!"
Buddy you haven’t seen infantry farming with planes like I have
fervent rose
it was absolutely worse back with the launch stealth heli thats for sure
calm bison
Again
Literally fucking all of BFV
The 500lbs bombs one shotting tanks regardless of health level
misty portal
Buddy you haven’t seen infantry farming with planes like I have
yeah infantry pals rise up
calm bison
The orbital flares
misty portal
don't join the dark side
fervent rose
bfv planes were overpowered and it's good to not repeat that
misty portal
and I should thank you for that and welcome you back in?
calm bison
Yes
karmic egret
that's only one potential mortar and 1 air tank thats just not enough explosive ...
the MBT's are near unkillable if you have a squad that knows what they are doing'
misty portal
sorry pal
fervent rose
the MBT's are near unkillable if you have a squad that knows what they are doing...
sadly not true because of the maul tor existing
karmic egret
sadly not true because of the maul tor existing
yeah
fervent rose
but in the event the defenders have nobody running it, yea i agree
but mbt in the hands of the avg player is a 1 minute 30 second death
karmic egret
DICE needs to back to some maps and rework the vehicle selection for each map
misty portal
redpill me on this, is 99,9% of negative bf exposure just whiny pilots?
fervent rose
Hell no
calm bison
Not really
fervent rose
most of it is angry infantry players
karmic egret
like playing in tanks on kaliedoscope = Death
fervent rose
not even close
because air bitches are a small minority of the total population in the first place
calm bison
I love Exposure TBH. It has a lot of good moments. In fact I’d say Pilots (namely chopper pilots) love the map
People like me who prefer the jets aren’t real big fans though
misty portal
yeah they think they're the main character (and not without reason)
it's up to us to not listen to them
calm bison
As an infantry player - exposure is great
As a jet player - exposure is meh
My main problem is sky box height
ebon pilot
I love Exposure's verticality
fervent rose
jets are simply broken in their current state
calm bison
It’s based off the valley and not the plateau
misty portal
feel like we're getting caught up in literal semantics here but okay
calm bison
jets are simply broken in their current state
How?
calm bison
Broken as in OP or UP?
calm bison
I mean I know
fervent rose
so you're aiming off of complete guesswork
calm bison
that’s why I use rocket pods
fervent rose
and a guy built a working crosshair with portal code
calm bison
TBH the cursor works fine for the most part
fervent rose
so you see both at the same time in that mode
and it's so clear how far off the main one is
calm bison
At the end of the day I’m still shooting down other shit with it so IDRC
400 kills to Felon T1
misty portal
yeah who's cringe and who isn't..
it's kinda settled I agree
but this bf is pretty good now I think
spare depot
is there a way to add a dot to the center of the screen like COD does for motion sickness?
misty portal
do you have access to tape and a sharpie?
fervent rose
is there a way to add a dot to the center of the screen like COD does for motion...
should be able to do that with reshade, i dont think thats an option in 2042
spare depot
should be able to do that with reshade, i dont think thats an option in 2042
gotcha thanks
fervent rose
there is a setting to get rid of the crosshair movement though, definitely disable that
crosshair projection i think
misty portal
gotcha thanks
no meme answer there's this thing called reshade crosshair that's pretty good
has all sorts of options like hiding it when you ADS
used it in apex for a hot moment didn't make me better but it works
drowsy shuttle
Oi Dice, can you give us an extra mag for the BSV? 
drowsy shuttle
Who? Meee? Nooo.. neeever
misty portal
what's a bsv?
drowsy shuttle
Best overal weapon in the game
misty portal
full auto assault rifle??
drowsy shuttle
Its so disgusting that after i use it i have to take a shower and drink a bottle of tequilla
I use it with single fire
misty portal
noted
oh okay trying to throw me off considering it's not a full auto anything I see you
hearty ginkgo
I wish there was a setting where you could hide people’s usernames or at least have them all identical color so you can kill a enemy judging by the color of there uniform
That would be challenging!
acoustic seal
why? you'd just end up spy checking everyone
hearty ginkgo
Hmm good point
fervent rose
if you want to torture yourself just make them both the same custom color
have at it
fervent rose
you dont need a special option to have that "fun"
patent pivot
That would be challenging!
okay hardcore
fervent rose
its right there enjoy
patent pivot
hearty ginkgo
XD
fervent rose
and you dont need to spy check anything theres red/green lights
hearty ginkgo
If this mode actually existed there would so much rage lol
arctic grove
True
patent pivot
If this mode actually existed there would so much rage lol
only on older games
fervent rose
it would be pretty dogshit considering theres no consistent uniform / faction stuff
patent pivot
I thought Americans had greenish brownish while Russians had grey
nah mate
hearty ginkgo
I must be mixed up
fervent rose
only when rendered in the distance
patent pivot
this is 2042
drowsy shuttle
So dice will do anything about the return of latv spam?
patent pivot
there's no realism of clothing here
hearty ginkgo
I see I see
hearty ginkgo
Welp idea of hardcore mode just throw that one out the window
I clearly wasn’t thinking
fervent rose
So dice will do anything about the return of latv spam?
dice has no idea they coded in a 200m airburst jeep
it'll be a month at least
drowsy shuttle
Some people spent the entire match sitting on the latv spamming that shit..
Jesus christ
glacial quarry
latv spam is one of the most cringe shit ive ever seen
patent pivot
latv spam is one of the most cringe shit ive ever seen
worse than mortar and ucav?
glacial quarry
yes
drowsy shuttle
I just got some dumb dude spamming that shit for an entire match
glacial quarry
the 20mm flak is literally just a full auto airburst with like 3x the blast radius
glacial quarry
its actually worse than airburst or sph launcher
patent pivot
I'm glad those 2 gadgets aren't the kings of worst experience
drowsy shuttle
So it will be fixed/nerf in 5.3 patch probably... with luck...
patent pivot
ucav and mortar wasnt even bad in bf4
what if I told you that they didn't regenerate ammo
patent pivot
maybe they won't be as bad as it can be
glacial quarry
the 20mm flak is broken af on the ground
not because of its dmg
but its insane blast radius
slow tulip
Bf2042's mortar isn't too powerful
glacial quarry
its bigger than the 60mm mortar
u just hold left click in the middle of the objective
half the objective becomes uninhabitable
literally exposure C on bt
exposure C on bt used to be one of the hardest points to capture
fervent rose
ucav and mortar wasnt even bad in bf4
ucav was definitely a big problem
glacial quarry
now its fucking easy cuz u just park 1-2 LATVs on the helipad
and just hold left click the entire defense team on the objective dies
fervent rose
at least for anybody known enough to get ucav spammed, that shit looked insanely un fun to deal with
and i just know that there are genuine ucav only players in bf4 and that hurts my soul
glacial quarry
i never had an issue with ucavs in bf4
there are some ppl who use them all the time yeah but very rare and it doesnt make much of an impact

green axle
but why would you want to ruin others day
drowsy shuttle
Yeah thats what i do when i play casper.. and let the drone in the air and go on assault.. drone still spots people
misty portal
pilots, tank drivers, snipers = emotional issues

Slow but deadly

I see dozer is so f good
plain hamlet
dozer is very enjoyable yes
glacial quarry
even if u dont use his shield his explosive resistance passive is really good
plain hamlet
at least we can all agree that engineer fucking sucks lmaoooo
non of the specialists are fun either
glacial quarry
yeah i only play engineer to play tank
calm bison
I disagree
glacial quarry
but even then its not the only option
calm bison
Lis is pure neuron activation
glacial quarry
u can play tank with irish or blasco
round yacht
I see so far ak971 is so op
fervent rose
nah
glacial quarry
aek971 is nowhere near being the best gun in 2042
plain hamlet
Lis is pure neuron activation
personally just don’t like standing still while using the ability, but she is the most enjoyable out of the 3
fervent rose
aek is in the bottom 5 of AR category
calm bison
Honestly I think I’m going to start using her more often
plain hamlet
in my opinion, assault has the best specialists, recon have the best gadgets, and medic has a bit of both
shell ermine
Lis with AT mines
glacial quarry
the best AR now is acw-r
round yacht
So what’s the best assault
shell ermine
Still prefer the SCAR
calm bison
I run C5 and EMP grenades on Lis
plain hamlet
So what’s the best assault
mackay if you’re basic
glacial quarry
and bsv-m. i don't care its a marksman rifle, its basically an AR
calm bison
Mackay, Dozer, and Zain are all the top picks for assault
shell ermine
MacKay if you prefer good feeling gunplay
glacial quarry
mackay is the top for gunplay
fervent rose
So what’s the best assault
if you simply want to do everything, mackay
zain if you want to cheese extra infantry kills
calm bison
Dozer if bonk
fervent rose
Falck is also close to the top but has no c5
plain hamlet
mackay is fun, except his character is also super obnoxious and makes me feel like a sweatlord
shell ermine
Next BF better not have slow as ass aim movement speeds like 2042 does
I'm so fucking sick of it in FPSes
plain hamlet
can’t u change that
shell ermine
Its a big reason why COD has gotten worse with movement abusing like jumping around corners and slide glitches, the aim walking speed is trash
fervent rose
can’t u change that
the only way to get bonus strafe speed is playing mackay
and they nerfed that perk for mackay
shell ermine
BFV was overall faster than 2042, but not fast enough
MacKay is perfect right now for speed
fervent rose
only with the lightened stock perk
shell ermine
It should be the default speed for everyone
fervent rose
for bfv^
calm bison
The problem is if you remove that buff from Mackay he now lacks a true passive
Every specialist has one
shell ermine
They could find him a new one
calm bison
So what would you give him
glacial quarry
mackay is just hands down the best if ur going for gun kills
blasco if ur defending a point
blasco with a silenced pp29 is insanely good for cqb defense
drowsy shuttle
mackay is just hands down the best if ur going for gun kills
Falck?
Infinite health and heals
glacial quarry
falck works too
but i prefer blasco
the non stop motion detection and anti spot is just too good
drowsy shuttle
True
But still.. falck might be the best.. i mean infinite health and you can run ammo box.. so you are always covered...
Altough i dont play with falck
fervent rose
mackay is just hands down the best if ur going for gun kills
i am kinda torn on mackay vs falck because mackay runs out of smoke grenades
falck just goes forever
unstoppable old lady
glacial quarry
falck is more forgiving
but mackay is better if u play well
manage ur armor plates and med pens well
mackay is 100% better
shell ermine
blasco with a silenced pp29 is insanely good for cqb defense
I've been using her with a silenced GEW since it's not too awful for aim movement speed
drowsy shuttle
Dont tell me you use armor... come on man.. thats training wheels for scrubs.. dispite whatever excuse dice devs try to bullshit us
fervent rose
i prefer collecting free kills with sph on mackay unless i know i need to kill some vehicles
glacial quarry
yeah i usually run blasco with acwr
glacial quarry
shell ermine
MacKay with either M39 or SCAR with C5, Liz with either the RPT or the GEW with AT Mines, Falck with P90 or PP29 with ammo box, and Blasco with GEW and TUGS
fervent rose
ya blasco is insane on defense
shell ermine
I need to give the ACW-R a try now that they've added attachments
fervent rose
they redid its damage too. it fries people
fresh lintel
Its solid.
shell ermine
Is it a bullet hose or strong and slow?
fresh lintel
Strong slow
fervent rose
its 700 rof or something right
glacial quarry
735
fervent rose
so medium fast rof
glacial quarry
4 shot kill till 30m
fervent rose
its not an AEK but its a solid rof
glacial quarry
735 is bullet hose for a 4 shot kill gun
shell ermine
I tend to prefer harder hitting slower firing weapons in games
glacial quarry
I tend to prefer harder hitting slower firing weapons in games
bsv-m will be your fav weapon
shell ermine
M1 Garand, Jungle Carbine, SCAR, M39, etc
glacial quarry
30m 4 btk
fresh lintel
Its not a laser beam like the SFAR and RM68 but its close and it hits hard.
shell ermine
Eh I used to like it but they nerfed it
glacial quarry
its still incredibly op lol
i dont think they nerfed it?
if so must be super long ago
fresh lintel
I still like the MTAR because deleting someone in half a second is funny
shell ermine
Still prefer the Scar and M39 over the BSV
drowsy shuttle
Bsv is the dirtiest weapon in the game
fervent rose
arguably the best overall gun in the game since it does everything except the grenade launcher
glacial quarry
bsvm is a headshot machine lol
ebon pilot
It's the only DMR with a decent headshot
glacial quarry
bsvm will be the best gun in the game if it weren't for its shit ammo capacity
have to use it with falck
ebon pilot
no you use it with angel
fervent rose
angel is not good compared to falck
shell ermine
Running the SCAR with HE, INC, and AT 40mm is fantastic
glacial quarry
angel hasnt been relevant since after launch
fervent rose
you take random chip damage more often than you need ammo
glacial quarry
the thing is
some guns are better overall simply because of their magazine / ammo management
shell ermine
I had a teammate drop C5 on a full MAV but get killed before he could detonate, I slapped the MAV with a 40mm and blew up the C5 before it despawned and got a full kill chain with a 40mm, that's Battlefield
glacial quarry
if ur looking to farm kills
if ur looking for best performance while you have bullets in your mag
fervent rose
unless its just raw op like rm68
glacial quarry
then bsv-m is the top gun in the game rn
but u also have better ammo management gun like acw-r
or lcmg
both of which are far better at farming kills than bsv-m cuz of their ammo management
and pp-29
m39 emr
drowsy shuttle
Im runnig bsv right now with angel... angel is bsv best friend
shell ermine
Scar
fervent rose
yeah pp29 and m39 are both broken on ammo efficiency
glacial quarry
bsvm has one of the worst ammo efficiency/management in the game
so it pulls its overall strength down a lot
fervent rose
eh 3 btk with 20 box mag isnt terrible
glacial quarry
but if ur just looking to nail 1-3 ppl before u die go bsvm
fervent rose
since you can 2 shot people with head body
fervent rose
but you do need an ammo box
shell ermine
Its weird as fuck that I can have extended mags in one slot and regular in another of the same ammo type and just swap to the other once I run out of ammo in the one.
glacial quarry
go lcmg/acw-r/m39/pp29
or run bsvm with falck ammo box
also works but u usually have to reload after 2-3 kills
fervent rose
if you're not missing you can easily clear 4+ tho
violet drum
.
drowsy shuttle
Yep
glacial quarry
on average i would say only 2 kills
if u take into account that a good player has an accuracy between 20-30%
willow sky
glad we aren't mentioning the rm68
glacial quarry
and u average like 3 shots to kill someone
ur only averaging 2 kills per mag
rm68 is still strong but its outclassed by acw-r rn
its just acw-r for slightly longer range
lower mag size and slower reload speed i prefer acw-r
fervent rose
ive gone back to using scar for longer range AR maps
fervent rose
but if its got close fights the acwr or am40 dont disappoint
m5 lately feels great too
shell ermine
The whole thing where they tried to nerf extended mags was so garbage
Glad they backed off
fervent rose
and that shit was a stealth change! what a poor choice
fervent rose
i'm very glad they added extended magazines to vault guns instead of sticking with that stupid change
glacial quarry
acw-r is good also but i use it because its good in both close and medium-long
good overall balance
same with lcmg
lcmg has incredible range
but its less mobile
pure CQB definitely m39 or pp29
or 12m auto if ur cringe
hallow sierra
The whole thing where they tried to nerf extended mags was so garbage
i forget about that
what was their idea before that again
glacial quarry
yeah pp29 is an insane cqb gun
fervent rose
or 12m auto if ur cringe
wait arent you an admitted shotgun spammer
glacial quarry
i only use pump shotguns in bf4
fervent rose
the raw op power of the 12m is hard to resist
glacial quarry
its cringe as well
fervent rose
you can click faster than its auto rof lol
glacial quarry
but semi auto and full auto shotguns are even more cringe
with a pump shotgun theres risk involved
glacial quarry
if u miss or dont straight up one shot the enemy
u most likely lose
its high risk high reward
fervent rose
true enough i used the pump a fair amount in underground in 5
glacial quarry

if you ever want to be a real rat i suggest blasco 12m. it's so broken

i wont ever use 12m
i already find semi auto shotguns cringe
yet alone a full auto one
drowsy shuttle
Yeah i dont use it either.. i t1 it and put it away
arctic grove
12m is boring after t1
fervent rose
i only did it on Shutdown during the skin farming but it was pure cheese
glacial quarry
m39 emr is essentially 12m
has the same fire rate, 2 hit kill
bigger magazine
and a much longer range at the cost of no one shot
hallow sierra
didnt even take that long to get used to the m39

Honestly running slugs on shotguns is more consistent than any other ammo type
hallow sierra
o lmao, might as well keep it since Halloween is in a couple months lmao.
true
fervent rose
Honestly running slugs on shotguns is more consistent than any other ammo type
very true but you cant clear the entire room easily with the limited ammo
but for individual fights the slugs dont have that same hitreg fail
ebon pilot
ever since I started keeping the hitreg debug view up I've started to notice just how often shotguns noreg vs any other gun in the game
i've even seen cases where the server registered a hit but the client didn't (on other guns)
fervent rose
i had to turn that thing off
seeing upwards of 25% of my shots not reg i dont need to know that
hallow sierra
oh so thats why i keep getting unfair deaths cuz of the hitreg debug being up
ebon pilot
it has also lead me to noticing how many things are "guns" in the game
like armor plates
the repair tool is also a gun
when you use it it makes a long stream of shots fired
hallow sierra
as much as armor plates being broken in this game im surprised no one is abuse it
fervent rose
we did abuse them when it was easy to abuse
fresh lintel
They're actually not even unbalanced. They're an annoyance for lower damage weapons and sometimes higher damage but like
fervent rose
angel was everywhere
fresh lintel
1 bullet isnt much if you shoot first
Which TIL its 20 HP, so whoever that one guy getting pissy at me for not remembering the number could have just said so 🥴
fervent rose
i still think they are lame, i prefer ttk being consistent and not random
fresh lintel
I mean fair, I feel like it should only affect the body. Since yknow.
Its a Chest plate.
But its rare now and the TTK difference can be miniscule from my experience. Rarely has it saved someone from me.
drowsy shuttle
I encounter a lot of people using the armor.. i keep seeing the armor hit marker
Its so damn lame and cheesy
hallow sierra
true
fresh lintel
I use it because its either: Use C5 and be the assault vehicle players hate (and shouldnt exist) or I use the SPH and hate myself for itm

so im figuring out how to use the shotgun

alex and the weapons team needs to reconsider the pellet changes and widen the spread circle on the mcs
its funny that they voted on changing the pellet count
because I guarantee it was done to nerf the 12mm auto
without considering the MCS or the new NVK shotty

its a bad map so good for you

Honestly I think Stranded is actually pretty good
It has its moments where it’s annoying
But so do all maps
Some more than others
drowsy shuttle
Stranded > renewal
calm bison
Yes
drowsy shuttle
At least in conquest.. BT, if you are attacking, renewal can be fun
shell ermine
Spearhead and Orbital are the only two actually good maps in the game.
They are like B- maps, but still
I'll add Valparaiso Conquest to that too since it's essentially an entirely new map
Renewal, Exposure, and Flashpoint are C- maps, everything else ranges from D to F with Reclaimed being an example of an F.
carmine rover
am i the only one that likes discarded and kaleidoscope
i think discarded is like top 3 maps
shell ermine
I actually liked it more before the rework
foggy stag
Renewal and Hourglass are the best for vehicle gameplay.
drowsy shuttle
am i the only one that likes discarded and kaleidoscope
Absolutely.. discarded after rework climbed in the list to be one of the best maps... even in conquest, and im not a fan of conquest
Kaleidoscope on the other hand... needs another rework.
bitter mulch
to me Flashpoint is the best, then Orbital, Discarded...anything else is bad

next onyx
I love attacking the hills on flashpoint and farming it.
calm bison
It’s still bleh
bitter mulch
Flashpoint on CQ is easily F tier
Why? i think its one of the best map for CQ
hallow sierra
At least in conquest.. BT, if you are attacking, renewal can be fun
not the first sector tho
carmine rover
that feeling when you get 20 captures and your team still loses
calm bison
Why? i think its one of the best map for CQ
The map is far too linear for how many players are on it
People love to camp in the hills
Speaking of which if one team controls the middle three objectives you’re never going to win because you simply can’t capture them back
The map is like nightbird central
remote kiln
I assume you're talking about 128?
calm bison
Yes
bitter mulch
The map is far too linear for how many players are on it
depends of you playing style. I like that hill on the left. I rarely play through the middle
remote kiln
yeah I mean that's fair, the layout doesnt attend well to large CQ
calm bison
I almost exclusively play 128 Conquest so that’s usually my point of reference
bitter mulch
i dont like maps like metro, locker... thats not what BF is to me
calm bison
What’s weird is that DICE was able to pull off a good linear map in the form of Spearhead on CQ 128
But not here
remote kiln
as time has gone on I have increasingly gotten frustrated with how bad of a map spearhead is in reality once you get over the design
bitter mulch
i think with flashpoint they allready went more to 64p
calm bison
Yeah Flashpoint definitely feels like a 64P map
remote kiln
it's easily borderline the worst map for any sort of tactical engagement
calm bison
IDK. Maybe I like Spearhead because lush grass fields trigger something in my monkey brain
Kinda like Orbital
bitter mulch
i hope they learned and we get only 64p maps in the next game. With better destruciton and better maps
calm bison
But they’ve proven they can do 128 players
remote kiln
the map from spawn to spawn is so open you have a clear line of sight to the enemy team and the sectors are also visible from either spawn
it's easily one of the shittiest tactical layouts in the game
bitter mulch
But they’ve proven they can do 128 players
kinda yes, but still. Maps feel to empty
remote kiln
even something like kali doesn't have anywhere near easy line of sight as spearhead
next onyx
Spearhead is probably one of the few maps I have genuine fun in on 128p purely because of its linearity.
But it also has a lot of open field problems sadly.
remote kiln
I did, when it launched when nobody knew what they were doing
but since it's matured the void hole of its issues are crystal clear
bitter mulch
i miss karkand, oman, sharqi, dalian..
remote kiln
it wouldn't have been a problem had they just pushed the spawns further back, the RU on its end has tons of playable verticality
making the map smaller was ironically, a mistake
hallow sierra
i tho i was the only one that thinks reclamied plays werid in bt
calm bison
Also can we make storm lightning strikes a thing?
Like on Spearhead and Manifest
Make them actual events that can cause damage to players and terrain

Never
