Big 'Battlefield V' Maps Still Being Worked on, Devs Say

4
Battlefield V developers have responded to concerns about map sizes to say that large levels are still in the works while providing an example of one sizable map.

Along with other criticisms that people have levied against Battlefield V – customization options and game mechanics like “Time to Kill” being some of the features that EA DICE has already said it’s looking into – it’s been pointed out by some that the game feels small in terms of map sizes. Many of these discussions take place on forums like the Battlefield V subreddit where one such conversation (via PC Gamer) about map sizes was seen. Players said that the game felt more like small-scale skirmishes instead of an all-out war like they’d expect from a game based on World War II.

In an apparent response to these types of concerns, EA DICE has shared some examples of larger maps that are being worked on. Battlefield V’s lead multiplayer designer Valerian Noghin shared an image on Twitter that showed the Hamada map with a reference for just how big it is. Noghin also cited a past Battlefield article about the map creation process.






Following that tweet, Battlefield V level designer Jeff Gagné quoted Noghin’s response with his own tweet that said players shouldn’t come to conclusions about the maps since EA DICE is now starting to share more information on the maps and other features. He reaffirmed that they’re still making big maps and asked players to stop assuming things about the map sizes.

It'll be a good game for sure, I think people will love it not just because of the map

Petite With the game being so close to launch I wonder if this says anything?

The game felt sorta unfinished or rushed at least, doesn't feel like the love other battlefield games had put into it yanno.

I love battlefield but I think their missing the big picture why people want and the fact were weeks away from a release and their still making maps...

I don't wanna make assumptions but they could pull a typical EA and make maps that were supposed to be in the game cut behind a pay wall of some sort although that wouldn't be a smart idea for dice or ea after recent backlash.


Lets be honest tho most games nowadays are rushed. If not rushed then dying like COD why bring Exo Suits into it? Just made the game a lot worse IMO

Battlefield needs a huge map. Honestly, it's one of the reasons I don't like the game very much but that's all personal opinion, BF is a huge series and sticking to the roots is very important

This looks incredible, the scope of each map is fantastic! Really akin to what true Battlefield games are like.
