Map suggestion 2.0 - Late game release, [after a year of release]

The suggestion I made to battlefield is below (direct messages battlefield on Twitter):

Hello,

If battlefield 2042 is going to make more maps in the future after release, I was thinking, and I've talked to a lot of people that also think the same, that if battlefield is going to receive more maps in the future. There should be a map of Australia, it suits the theme well, since a lot of the maps are in small countries so Australia is one that could be used

The location would be nice to be at Sydney or Perth, Mainly Perth since you can have a naval assault map at the Swan River, this can be done in breakthrough or conquest, there is a defending team, and an attacking team, the attacking team has landing craft, and amphibious tanks to land on the beach, and you have 4-5 sectors of 2 control points for breakthrough, or 4 control points per sector for conquest.

It would suit the game really well as well, the map would be big, since the attacking team is going down through a large river, and attacking a big city that you could make it look like hourglass with lights and such, it would be a nice map as well to add since there haven't been many games with an Australian map, and battlefield to be the first large scale game to make this would be very cool, and I know a lot of people who would love it aswell. The map can have many areas to it, like the city, skyscrapers, train stations, bus stations (the hub of buses) and large highways the storm would work well in the city although it would now have to be called a cyclone and be turning the other way since that's how it works btw.

but I think it would be a massive and huge step in the right direction of diversity in your game with many different areas and combat circumstances in the game

Thanks!

sincerely,

Positiveeeeee,

what do you guys think? I think it would be a good location and I live in Aus so that would be amazing!

also, is there a large game that even has a Australia map? (expect R6 coz i know they have 1)

  • @YT_Positive you will probably have 5 million players suggesting 5 million different places...
    For now lets get the game released and see if the hype can carry over into the game...

  • @YT_Positive I think a map based on these concepts would be great. To be honest, I'm not a fan of Battlefield trying to use real world locations. Maybe as inspiration for a good map, but I think the series is at it's best when they use their imagination more on the maps. It seems to turn out better from a gameplay perspective.
  • @carsono311 ye that's what I was thinking about since it would be very cool to add a naval assault kind of maps and vehicles kind of like BFV but more modern obviously
  • @YT_Positive Sounds interesting and why not?

    Only thing is, I am a little confused over how you can call Australia a small country. According to the official  Australian Government website, Australia's size is :

    • almost as great as that of the United States of America
    • about 50 per cent greater than Europe, and
    • 32 times greater than the United Kingdom.

    Just please no specialist with a boomerang 🙂

  • @Rusty Rat ahahhaha boomerang specialist ahhaha,
    but in what im saying is small in player base (because Australias servers are not very big compared to other places), Population, and credit in games and such

    Thanks

    @YT_Positive Sorry I couldn't resist (But you know if it was COD there would be).

    Expanding maps out to other areas can only be a good thing and draw potential players in from around the world. As you said the scenario makes it easy to do (not based on something that has already occurred in a specific location).

    I have never really understood why they can't have better servers for Australia, but I suppose it all comes down to money (a little like all of the BFV servers for Europe seem to be in Germany).
