Where are all the maps?????
It seems the only maps showing in 128 player conquest modes are Exposure and Kaleidoscope. I still hate Kaleidoscope. Where are all the other maps? I like Exposure but I need some variety

Welcome to a Battlefield "Live Service". BFV had a similar issues regarding quantity of new maps released although in 2042 it seems to be much worse regarding the number of maps shipped in the same time period. So far it looks like the next year will have only 4 maps if we take recently developer comments on the new "map" at face value. We used to call 4 maps a single content drop under the Premium system and maps are for an FPS like Battlefield the life blood and only real content that matters although new gadgets and weapons do help.
Why does the number of maps dropping at one time matter? The community gets burned out on maps, and when you get an injection of 4 new maps the community can play them with renewed vigor for 1-2 months before they start to get stale. If you
drop only a single map the community gets tired of that single new map in a much shorter time - normally in 1-2 weeks instead of 1-2 months and then the community is back to other games or saying we need new content.
Very true and with BF2042 launching with only 7 AOW maps I feel it all became stale very quickly.
I was always a fan of premium, guaranteed 4 maps every 3 months, it was like getting a whole new game each DLC drop.
@RayD_O1 the thing everyone fails to mention in the premium discussions is if you purchased Premium you got a $10 discount on the total price of all of the maps compared to those who purchased them piecemeal. I can justify $40 for 16 maps issued at 4 maps every quarter.

Same here, it was definitely money well spent and it always helped retain the players interest and certainly helped to keep the servers filled.
Quite the opposite to what is currently happening.
