    Your favorite maps so far?

    What is everyone's favorite maps, please say which mode also.

    Seine crossing so far is not bad, rush mode.

    I am having a hell of a time finding my new *wake island* or my new *Karkand*. So to speak.

            I have managed to test most of the maps out in different game modes, here are my opinions so far:

            Conquest:
            Grand Bazaar - This could very well turn out to be the new Karkand imo as it has a lot of choke points but also ways in which you can avoid all that and go capture a different flag at the back of the map.
            Caspian Border - Still a great map after the beta and has quite a few "mini" battle that take place which is an interesting factor.
            Seine Crossing - Can get a bit spammy at times however if you have a good squad who is communicating it can be a really fun map, especially holding off the bridges.
            Tehran highway - This map is awesome when you dont lag out, it has different levels and mini vehicle and mini infantry battles going on everywhere.
            Damavand peak - Again it can get a bit spammy as people choke down the tunnel, people have yet to realize you can fly a helicopter over the top of the peak and capture the back flag. Love this map.
            Canals - Again a great map especially from the point of view of the marines when they come in off the carrier through air assault.
            Operation Firestorm - I love this map! battles are everywhere and the warehouses make for a nice transition from outdoor to indoor fights. Nothing like dodging a tank running through a collapsing warehouse!
            Kharg island - Havent really been able to play this a whole lot yet.
            Operation Metro - This map is a joke right?

            Rush:
            Grand Bazaar - Can get a bit spammy and one of the teams spawns extremely close to the MCOM's which mean they can take them straight away.
            Seine Crossing - Again can get a bit spammy and has a massive chokepoint which can be a bit frustrating.
            Damavand Peak - BASE JUMPING HOW CAN THAT BE LESS AWESOME?
            Kharg Island - Beach assault off the carrier with 3 APC's rolling in? Epic.
            Operation Metro - Overplayed a little due to the beta but still a pretty good map with a coordinated squad.

            Overall i think the maps are pretty awesome however they still seem to have the whole "funneling the battle" aspect that DICE developed for rush but seems to have remained even in conquest mode.

              Canals - raging fun with heli strafing runs!

              Kharg Island just pure ilsand fun, could this be Wake's younger brother? hahaha srsly though strafing tanks with F18s/SU35s is major fun, and using the helis to kill those hiding snipers!

              Firestorm is ok did not develop an interest but its average.

              And best for last tada da dum! Caspian! I dont know what it is but i love it.

              for a linear/small map i do enjoy Grand bazaar, i think the details are very awesomesauce. Oh yeah game modes for all maps are CONQUEST!

                I love Damavand Peak on rush but dont like it on conquest. Wish they would of included the top of the mountain like in rush.....maybe have to include a road or something up the mountain which is probably why they didnt include it. Works well in rush but way to linear for conquest.

                In fact most of the maps are way to linear for conquest, like they were designed for rush. If the maps were opened up a little bit to take advantage of the terrain in these maps then I think it wold be alot of fun. To me if feels like none of the maps are really reaching there potential with the current flag layouts.

                  Caspian must be my favourite, but Op Firestorm is OK
                  I strongly dislike Seine Crossing, and Damavand peak just grinds to a halt in the tunnel.

                  Metro Conquest large is ridiculous, but its a quick way to level if you don't care about K/D.

                    Bazaar is definitely the best meatgrinder map. That's because you can fight along the outskirts and avoid the rocket spam in the middle easily.

                    I haven't played Seine Crossing much, but it can be fun at times.

                    Tehran Highway is odd...it's a meatgrinder but it's more open. Not sure what I think of it right now.

                    Damavand Peak is just an embarrassment. I hate that map so much. The only reason I put up with it is to fly the scout chopper, which can dominate if the other team has no stingers. What they should have done was add more pathways through the tunnels and some pathways on the sides so that you could flank around without having to use the chopper.

                    Speaking of an embarrassment, Operation Metro.

                    I have only played Kharg Island twice and spent all the time in the jets, but it was enjoyable. Same with Firestorm, although I have spent some time as an infantry and did not like it too much. It is definitely geared towards vehicle warfare, but the vehicles get torn apart by RPGs and rockets if they get near the flags with warehouses in my experience.

                    As I said in a previous post, Canals and Caspian are my favorite. Love the helicopter battles on Canals. It's a perfect mix of wide-open sniping gameplay and close quarters infantry gameplay in my opinion. And Caspian is just amazing.

                      Re: Your favorite maps so far?

                      Most servers were full yesterday on Canals, 64pl servers that is, so i did a funny thing, i filtered canals/kharg/caspian with 1-5 free slots and conquest large mode. I got put into Canals where there was 20 players so 10 v 10.

                      To tell the truth 10 v 10 was not bad if you need to level up your Heli/Plane. I took the Cobra, as well as i had this great chopper gunner with me, i unlocked the flares and AA missiles. It was awesome we were dominating.

                      I got shot a few times with the Russian AA SA8 but never shot down, i managed to fly on a 50% health back to carrier and get it fixed, man i loved that, the plane was like steering left and right and i had to keep it in check to land it and fix it, i only lost it once! i had blazing fun last night canals rocks for Heli!

                      Also Tip of the Day:

                      if you fancy leveling up your planes/helis and what not so that you may be able to compete better in 64 players play in a low player server, guaranteed to make that happen. I am close to getting the stealth options as well cant wait for the ATG!
