Map Idea

BOATS arent used enough.

So I thought of a map that takes place in the middle of the ocean across 7 Oil/petrol platforms (each one is a Capturable point for Conquest games) where you either have to travel on a BOAT or VENOM VIPER/HAVOC??And maybe have 2 or 3 linked to each other via catwalks (refer to the picture below) Platforms would be large enough to engage ground combat with many levels.:

This would create 3 things: MAJOR teamwork and COORDINATION , DIVERSITY since no map comes close to this and we would finally see boat fights and squad infiltration. In modern days PETROL and territory is the main reason countries are at war so I dont see where this wouldnt fit perfectly with the game. /thoughts?

Honestly I thought BF3 will be like that after wathing teaser trailer. But...

So, I agree.

Nice idea.

should be implemented

squad system today = no teamwork if public

I support diversity

Omg dude...they cannot even fix Javelin bug, what the fuck are you asking for :D

I like the idea as well. Put the refinery from FIrestorm over water with boats and multiple levels, it would be pretty fun.

we would see some back in the 2142 days

squad would stick together a lot more, with the SL spawn.

I am not saying all squads sticked together, but most of them

I am sure 2142 people di not have +130 IQ

nice idea. but i fear that in the end it turns out into a snipefest where people try to shoot each other from one platform to another.

your post forced to recall BF2 commanders :)
fucking nostalgia :(

BUMP!

are you thinking like me?

so if you are this is how i think it would look http://gfx.dagbladet.no/pub/artikkel/4/47/473/473014/UIB9_503.jpg [gfx.dagbladet.no]

Fog\night\rain could fix that...

Choke points would be too common. You already have Metro.

But yes, 1942 boat mechanics would be welcome... very welcome. Hell, 1942 map sizes and pacing is missed.
I miss ammo coming in clips, not sacks, and planes with bombs...

man I like that thing. Im glad this is getting seen and people seem to enjoy the idea. theres only 1 BUT, and its the fact these are linked together with a catwalk. I really want to prone Boat fights and the use of boats so if only 1 catwalk like this would link 2 of the 5-7 'cappable' spots then yeah I like it.


And yeah,weather effects!! that would be a great plus and addition to counter snipefests

That would be awesome. There was someone else that shared a similar idea, but with 4 different carriers spread out with boats as vehicles and enabling any of the canons on the carriers. I'll be reporting this idea to the devs as well.

wow I also like that idea ,that would finally make something different to take out aircrafts than the imba jav/soflam method

Oh god yes, all of my munnay

BUMP!!

+200 to this idea. Map diversity please.
