Littlebird has destroyed the Manhattan bridge experience for infantry.
There’s already crap for cover on 3/5 of the Conquest objectives on this map. Two objectives are located in the middle of an intersection with only the tiniest slivers of cover for infantry being available, The third being Bravo, which is located on an open rooftop with zero overhead cover. Such HORRIBLE objective designs!!
Not to mention limited access for infantry to rooftops. Did DICE never play BF4’s Siege of Shanghai? Numerous buildings have elevators that allow players to access rooftops so they can effectively deploy anti-aircraft shoulder fired weapons. This isn’t the case on the Manhattan Bridge map where rooftop access is nearly impossible for infantry.
Introduce a little bird in an environment where it’s extremely difficult to lock on with anti-air shoulder, fired weapons, and you have a recipe for disaster. Infantry become fodder for even the most average pilots.
In my opinion, this map doesn’t even need a single aircraft. This would be a great infantry and ground vehicles only map.
Another boneheaded move by DICE.
