@WinterbornGuardUsing the OP's specific example of Hourglass as an example, there is plenty of cover in the villages until it is destroyed.
Do you want more destroyable cover or cover that can't be destroyed?
Hourglass is also not exactly flat is it? The dunes often offer plenty of cover hiding you from many sight lines. To suggest that all sectors on Hourglass have uninhibited sightlines across all of them is rediculous.
@Trokey66the fact a sniper can see from one corner of the map to another in any capacity is poor design choice. There can be lanes where that kind of sight line is possible but not a panoramic view of 80% of the map... also.. "the fact that these buildings are 'copy and paste' is irrelevant, they exist." Quality matters. If I make two batches of brownies one is made with intent and attention to detail and the other I just threw the sh*t together with no regard which do you think will be a better experience? "At least they exist at the lowest possible level" is not an argument, its confirmation that the map design rushed and flawed... Tom Henderson has posted statements from devs talking specifically about the maps and how they were made for looks and then handed to level designers to attempt to make playable. Which is why hourglass can be both pretty and then also have blank placeholder destructible buildings thrown on top as an afterthought.
