Where are the promised portal maps?!
So when are we getting portal maps that were promised back before launch with each new season? New portal maps would add to the content, which this game is desperately in need of. I would love to pla...

@ZRuff46Absolutely with you on that notion, would love to see some updated news about getting those remakes added to Portal.
Yeah I had expected a lot more from Portal and BF2042 badly needs more maps, both new and classic maps to add some much-needed variety,

Maybe the team that would be making those was stuck fixing the new maps instead? /facepalm

Geez, not to sound ungrateful for the map changes we got, but I really don't think it took an entire map "team" to get us those edits that were made. To me it makes no sense as they were not true redesigns where you'd need more than 1 person to do what was done. Wasn't it mostly drag-n-drop edits for the most part?
I dunno, maybe I'm just dead wrong there.
All this does is back the ideas that there is only a skeleton crew still working on the game and that once Season 4 ends, they will cut support for the game. Which I hope they don't. The game has so much potential and is getting better and better but we need more content, we need more maps specifically. More portal maps. Right now there is only 15 maps after one year when there should be almost doubled that.
I want to be wrong. But I don't think we'll see anything new beyond two more Season maps, a few gadgets and new cosmetics. EA and DICE insist they are all in on Battlefield but it's hard to believe that when progress is so slow and the content we want to see just isn't happening.
Though they say they are listening to the community they have very selective hearing. I don't believe they have ever responded to the requests for new Portal maps, squad management tools, persistent servers, etc, etc. When it's something they can or are willing to fix, they say "look, we listened and delivered, aren't we great" but they remain silent on everything else.
BF2042 could have been amazing, it could have been the ultimate BF game with classic maps from previous games to bolster the new ones, but when Season 4 comes to an end I think, content wise, that will be it.
7 launch maps
4 season maps
6 Portal maps
17 in total, and that's likely to be it.
Come on DICE, surprise us, give us Metro, Operation Locker, Seine Crossing, Damavand Peak...
