It's Time, EA — Bring Back the Classic BF2 Maps We’ve Been Waiting For!

Hey Battlefield Team and fellow soldiers,

Can we finally talk about the elephant in the room — the classic Battlefield 2 maps that many of us have been asking for for years now? BF2 wasn't just a game — it was a golden era that defined what Battlefield is supposed to be: tactical, boots-on-the-ground, squad-based warfare with unforgettable environments.

So here’s the ask: Bring back the legends. Let us relive the glory days with remastered versions of these iconic maps

Mashtuur City
Dalian Plant
The Iron Gator
Warlord
Devil's Perch
Strike at Karkand
Ghost Town
Road to Jalalabad
Highway Tampa
Kubra Dam

Check some of these maps out on youtube, google and below at the link.

Maps of Battlefield 2

These maps weren’t just fun — they were tactically rich, with memorable chokepoints, flanking routes, and a perfect balance of infantry and vehicles. They defined Battlefield gameplay that many of us feel has been lost in the newer titles.

Also — can we talk about the **Commander role**? This feature brought next-level strategy to the battlefield. Calling in UAVs, dropping supply crates, issuing orders, and yes — **artillery strikes**. It gave squads purpose and made teamwork rewarding. Bring that back too — and not watered down like in later titles.

Expansion Pack Idea: BF2 Special Forces Revival

Why not go even further? Bring back something inspired by BF2: Special Forces.
Grappling hooks, night missions, zip-lines, and unique faction gear — but done right. No 2042 gadgets or sci-fi. Just grounded, gritty gameplay with added verticality and tactical options.

Special Forces added new layers of strategy and felt fresh without breaking the core Battlefield identity.

Why This Makes Sense

Brings back veteran players who miss the classics
Introduces new players to the roots of Battlefield
Builds major hype and goodwill in the community
Faster turnaround compared to designing maps from scratch

So what do you say, EA/DICE? We’ve waited long enough. Let’s get this done.

Which BF2 maps would YOU want to see return? Share your favorites and memories — let’s make this thread impossible to ignore.

  • Battlefield 2 maps tend to play completely differently in modern remasters because Battlefield 2 had limited render distance and fog. I'd much rather have new maps that are inspired by those maps, but designed with current day standards in mind.

  • Solid lineup, but please don't forget Sharqi Peninsula!

    You just stole my idea for a thread lol. Nicely said, it would be really cool.

    Mashtuur city and Strike at Karkand would fit in perfectly in my opinion.
