I kind of miss that map mentality they had back then in BFBC2 and BF3 when you had maps designed for specific modes and player numbers. If you design a map specific for a mode it will probably be really good for that mode, but if you design it for multiple modes It mostly becomes mediocre at best for all modes. But of course there are some golden ones that work good for all modes.
Metro works very well on Rush but also on CQ. The problem is the player number. With 24 players, Metro is a really enjoyable experience, even though a kind of intense one. With 32 it depends on the teams and CAN be good sometimes (especially the BF4 version of it)
But whoever thought it would be a good idea to put 64 players on this map must have been completely out of his/her mind.
- 4 years ago@DuaneDibbley Oh really? I never tried it with less players.

I agree with the general point here - BF2042 is nowhere near as bad as is often suggested. I actually rather enjoy it.
I also agree with the idea floated above that the game requires players to relearn certain core mechanics. It does not play exactly like BF4, and the return of helicopters and electronic warfare after BF1 and BFV add back a layer of complexity to the infantry experience.
As for the M16 being the meta weapon in BF3, I would disagree - I have 16,000 kills with the AN-94, it was easily the most flexible weapon with its superior range and accuracy over other assault rifles and decent enough RoF in closer quarters. If I knew I was going into sustained CQB, I'd take the ACW-R or MP7 any day.

Im with you Stew but I think it's a losing battle here on these forums now. I also enjoy your topics. Very engaging. But people have already made up their minds about this game especially here on these forums that come here everyday and it's really not fun anymore to be here reading about a game you like because all you see are hate/toxic posts.
- kregora4 years agoSeasoned Ace@DuaneDibbley Metro scales a lot better with the classic ruleset and friendly fire, and some limitations on grenade launchers.
- 4 years ago@kregora Metro was semi acceptable in Rush game mode only with a maximum of 24 to 32 players max ... Metroy conquest 64 players KDR farms has ruined BF3 and 4
