Ok so hear me out. The map won’t just be the temple. Players can run around on the outside with vehicles and aircraft. One team starts on/in the temple (located on a mountain) and the other team is tasked to storm it from the valley below. The area would be roughly on the Chinese side of the Himalayan mountains. I thought it would be cool to have a map based in/around a Buddhist temple for two reasons.1) It would be poetically stunning to be fighting for control of a place dedicated to peace and serenity. 2) The visuals would be stunning, especially seeing the way the light works in the game already. You could storm in and be greeted by the main meditation hall with a 60 foot Buddha statue. There would be red pillars and arched thresholds with the golden sun pouring in. Down the hall there would be the monk dorms and other such buildings. Towards the back there would be a zen-ish garden and a large plaza where the monks would practice kung-fu (or w.e) Some towers scattered around would also provide snipers with a good vantage point. Again, this is off the top of my head, some hard core design thought would have to be put into it. What do you guys think? ---

Why would they be fighting at a Buddhist Temple? ---

Strategic importance, they’re usually pretty high up. Could be a communications center etc. ---

Imagine sniping from atop the Buddhas of Bamiyan - Possibly reconstructed… Then, imagine a levolution where you… re-blow them up… Kinda sad, actually. ---

This probably wont happen.Atleast not in Final Stand dlc cuz the game takes place in/around Russia. But there are rumors that Final Stand may not be the last dlc for BF4 and DICE may have plans on releasing new map packs,game modes etc because they want Battlefield 4 to run along side Battlefield Hardline. So just keep your fingers crossed.
