It’s clear they are already working on a new Battlefield title, and BF 6 is being left with a skeleton crew. It will likely be another mismanaged title, just like BF V and 2042—though in 2042's case, the core gameplay itself was bad, not just the mismanagement. Look at how slowly bugs are fixed; when they patch one, they add ten more. There were game-breaking bugs that took two months to fix.
For hell's sake, give proper mapping tools to the community! Within a week, you’d see all the old BF maps back in the game, along with plenty of maps from other titles.
As I’ve stated before, they already have several old maps on this engine. I don’t see the problem with porting them over from 2042 Portal to this game, but oh well.

When I played those crappy customised maps which in not sure is because of the creators skills or because you can only use the assets that are in the tool they give you too create the custom maps, I started getting amazing ideas of how to update the 2042 maps, specifically the one with the sky scraper where the first thing I tried was to see if the roof would work in the original game so I could get a great sniper location on the roof and was surprised it did work, that was a great unobstructed view for the sniper to complete hes greater then 125 metre head shot challenge. But I thought to myself, how about we add extra ways of gaining across to the building just incase they have the elevator and stairs covered by a machine gunner, how about we add grapple ropes you can go up from the floor or down from the roof, even put a window cleaner crane in and when you get to certain floors as you grapple down, you can activate a explosive device on the window to break it and gain access that way away from the waiting machine gunner and their trap, also have the main large buildings on the map connected underneath to give you some cover from snipers and some cover against turrents planted on the roofs to keep the intruders and helicopters away, but the tunnel system only provides some cover, not total cover from point a to point b, and also have office workers you can choose to save and activate to follow you so you can get them to safety and use the tunnel system to get then to a truck waiting as a optional bonus mission that rewards you some item, great, echo, assassin change out and refill, either one of those types of rewards after completing it and the amount you save increases the reward value or amount if its possible, that's the map I would design by updating the old BF 2042 sky scraper map.

They also should give recon guy grapple hook so you can get to those inaccessible sniper perch places on the maps they made since assault guy gets ladder and unless hes your mate, good luck trying to get people to help these days in team based games. And the recon guy did have a grapple hook for that purpose on the early BF games.A nd another thing I noticed when I was using the planes and trying to bomb tanks or men for that matter i with the free fall bombs, they were pitiful and **bleep** weak which they shouldn't be because they are large bombs destined to destroy shrug in a large radius and if it lands near a tank, that tank is dead, if it lands several metres away from infantry, they are dead. Now if it was a self laser guided bombs I could understand 2 shots on a tank because it would hit precisely as you drop it when the circle pases over the target when you release, but they are currently useless and there is one reason this is the case and one or 2 free buttons which could have been given a function to allow you to hit targets with bombs accurately and that's is the ability to select your ground target so it makes it easier to see them on approach and line up your target for the drop as is difficult to see those fast speeds even at close to stall speeds. But these days developers don't think before they implement an idea and that's cuz they don't test their own game and leave it to beta testers who aren't the smartest or creative of people to spot this problem and suggest the solution I just mentioned. If you can't select the target, then the bombs damage and radius of damage should have been increases the to five fold to ensure if the bomb land next to the tank or near a soldier or group of them, they would be dead at least 2 for the tank .
