Sanitized is a good description. BF V maps have so much detail. They aren't perfect but man, they could not make 7 GOOD maps in 3 years. This is why i have zero faith in Dice. If the visual Fidelity suffers due to the 128 player count -id like to go back to 64 players. I think most of us venting daily here because 2042 should've been a no brainer. A winner. An easy one. Take the best from BF 3,4 and 1, make it a dark and gritty future. Almost Terminator like. Cities torn apart. Ravaged by war with some bad * beats when going into battle. The last stand off between the US and RU. Heck i wouldn't mind the specialists if everything else was great. But it just isn't. You can tell that hourglass for example, seems to be a BR style map. Everything looks like a "play ground" if you know what i mean. Too clean, too boring, nothing is happening. Really the ONLY map i sorta like is Orbital.
But booting up BF 1 and playing man, what a difference in speed, Fidelity and gun play.
Tomorrow, Embark - the OG ex Dice guys will be showing off their first game. Im super excited for it. While not BF, these guys KNOW what sup!
By the Gods!
I remember the constant whinging on here about visibility in BFV being caused by 'too much clutter' on maps, now they are being lauded as fine detail?
Well that's the 'community' for you you.....

Yep, that amazes me too. Well, I guess most people seem to remember things much better than they really were.
@Trokey66I never complained about BFV having too much clutter. Actually several of 2042 maps are more reminiscent of BF 1942 maps from 2001-2002 for their level of detail, and hardware and software was not as sophisticated back then.
bfV vanilla maps sucked.
Also comparing a big desert map to a small destroyed city map is rather pointless.
OF course I guess that is thrown aside in the name of nonsense? Because nonsense fits the narrative. And reality doesn't.
Also graphics don't equal playability.
