The ex DICE veterans are a huge loss to this series.
They have absolutely knocked that "other game" just released and free to play out of the park. The levels of detail & polish put this game to shame. Bring them back at all costs.

@Lady_One the difference is on average 2042 has had and will most likely forever have the weakest map-pool in franchise history.
sure older titles had not so great maps but on average they had much much better map pools than 2042 could ever hope to have.
Just naming a few from the last two main titles
- Amiens
- Rotterdam
- Devastation
- Marita
- St.Quentin
- Achi Baba
- Argonne Forest
- Nivelle
- Prise De Tahure
- Provence
- Ballroom Blitz
What does 2042 as pure 2042 maps actually have? I doubt any fan will foam at their mouths for a remake of Kaleidoscope or Orbital anytime soon....
- @sk1lld Maybe we might see it back in season 7. What if that Middle-East map that is on the table in that teaser with Ryan McArthur points towards Doha Qatar and we get a reworked infantry only map built around the stadium?
- @sk1lld Yes and no. Awesome yes to have stadium back. No because it would mean recycled content would be offered as “new”. Ok to people who never played 128 version of Hourglass it would be new, but still.
@RanzigeRidder2Just put the stadium between the now A and G flag in that big empty space and take the F flag up to the roof where it was.
Recently played BF4 again. Much worse than BF2042. Most people just having a nostalgia moment. Go back and actually compare.
- @RanzigeRidder2 Ill actually remember it as "the impossible breakthrough"
Anyone who managed to win a match of Breakthrough in Hourglass as an attacker before the patch removed the objective from the building deserves an achievement.

Or Hourglass, I miss the stadium why did they have to remove it?At some point they explained that they are engine/hardware limited at how many object the maps can have.
So in order to fix the launch maps so that they are less barren and pristine, they need to remove some objects so they can place other objects elsewhere

Thats sad, I don't know much about programing I do know that whoever they "EA/DICE" hired had to be good programmers because of how complicated the Frostbite engine is. The BR play really hurt this title no real classes really was a bad design, not to mention friend and foe with the same uniforms.
After this I will wait before next purchase and read reviews and user feedback before any new EA purchase.
