Having only three maps is what will ultimately make this fail

Re: Having only three maps is what will ultimately make this fail

People play 24/7 Karkand 24/7 Wake Island or 24/7 Warlord anyway, it makes me sick how many 24/7 servers are there. I like all maps and like servers with a rotation. Don't mind there being only 3 maps it's a $20 casual game anyway.

I would like to see more than 3 maps, 3 is just weak.

I bet these 3 maps are very well made so they just decided to make great maps instead of making 10 decent maps or whatever. There could be a DLC if the game is successful, so that good news.

I've always hated that argument. I'm sure when they made ALL of the maps in BF2, they thought they were all great. I'm betting some of the devs put their souls into Zatar Wetlands and Operation Smokescreen.

So what if the 3 maps we get are Karkand, Wake, and Zatar Wetlands?
So two maps that will each get half of the players all of the time, and a good map that will never be played?
Making a variety of maps increases the chances of a few good ones being included, and increases replay value.
Since this game obviously doesn't have longevity in its message statement, I suppose three maps will be just fine for a disposable game.

Sad thing is even out of 3 best maps 70% of servers will start to just run one map 24/7.

What would be nice is if Intel, Nvidia or someone else sponsors some map packs.

This is a cheap game, so you can't expect too much. But, no doubt, there will be more maps in the future!

Re: Having only three maps is what will ultimately make this fail

Maybe. One thing I noticed in all games though is generally there are two or three favorites and all other maps are forgotten.

The options to have others are nice and make it a lot more long lasting, but I dont know if a "mini game" is suppose to be.

Crunch

Yes, only two or three become really used But that's WITH the choice of 12-15 maps that naturally get used frequently in server rotations, or servers with just one map But with just three maps. Dice had better make damn sure these maps become awesometacular.

Also, all three maps were in 1942, and are just remade for the frostbite engine.

And how do you know this? I highly doubt that. They will be concentrating on BF:BC2 and release it few months after 1943 and then dump it completely. BF43 is just a quick name-riding extra profit game. Because its so cheap people will buy that, and just in time when they get bored to those 3 maps, BC2 will come out and people will buy it.

If they made extra content, they might lose potential buyers that get bored to bf43.

Did anyone else read the BF1943 Africa speculation at bf-games or Planet Battlefield? it looks like there are pics of desert maps hanging on a wall next to BF1943 Pacific maps, the photo came from the 1943 twitter page, below is the section showing the desert maps:

Other maps? What other maps?

Back to Karkand and Camp G.

But, seriously, I'd rather that they release a map maker just like FC2 and simply choose good ones to be official.

That sounds like a good idea. :yay:
