You do not miss the Metro..?
I think the new METRO operations in battlefield mode 2042 would be great. A map of such parameters is missing. Bandar desert was great too. I'm just afraid it will be added to the portal mode. The p...

It was OK but, as I mentioned in the other thread, I was more of a Locker man. I still play those 2000 ticket 24/7 Locker servers quite often actually.

Yeah I enjoyed Locker too, I thought they captured the prison atmosphere pretty well didn't they.
I'm more of a Metro man but that's because I knew exactly how to take advantage of its flanks - Locker was a great map but it was so much larger and more open, it was easy for the enemy to eventually get around to ruin everything (you just couldn't trust your teammates after BF3 IMO).
It's be cool to see it make a triumphant return, but I also don't want to see it become a mere shell of its former self like Call of Duty's Nuketown
Never understood the appeal of metro. It was just a set of stairs that you fought over for 20+ minutes. There were a lot better infantry maps before and after Metro.
@Noodlesocks Breaking through that bottleneck was super satisfying/part of the appeal, and completely changed the dynamic of the map. I felt, as a lone wolf type of player, I could actually make a difference
- @TTZ_Dipsy Screening a recon pushing left with a whole squad when your team spawned low and literally body-blocking through the booth and out to the alley and trying to hold the other team inside long enough to let the recon get a beacon up in the left side alley house and getting a two-pronged spawn. I think some never actually experienced no-explosives metro competitive rather than just saw it as a farm map.
Or just managing to get bodies inside the right side hallway and managing to hold it long enough to push to the second set of doors and absolutely demolishing the other team with crossfire and pushing them back to the metro entrance.
Some of the most memorable moments i ever had in the franchise were in infantry maps but i guess it depends on what servers people frequented. The ones with VIP lists outside their own clan that encouraged a good fight and had server-side player tracking and stats for balancing were immense fun in 3 and 4.
Again though, with explosives it did turn into mindless spam even tough you could argue you could do some fun stuff with C4 in those places, no explosives + smoke/flares allowed (to really screw with FLIRs) was by far my preference.
