Seriously, it’s supposed to be a WW2 game, can we at least get the flag when fighting Germans ?  
Talk about immersion…

Edit : yay, is censored, well done EA…

The flag/symbol you’re referring too is not going to be seen in the game. Move on from it and get over it.

It has never existed in a battlefield game.

Yes. BF1942 didn’t display any swastikas, and I can’t remember any complaints about ruined immersion because of it.

Hmm, that actually looks like a fun battlefield map.

And BF1942 had indeed the same flag. Its fine, this aint wolfenstein.

Nice way to bring it back on topic. Yes, it looks promising. Having the home spawn at the “long end” of the 3x2 flag placement is interesting. It might make for a more Frontlines type of gameplay in Conquest; back and forth, instead of running around in a circle.

Hmm, I find this layout just leads to more flag wack a mole style gameplay. From the German side B & A are gimmi’s as it gives direct line of sight to British base (depending on elevation of map)

C & F are far out in the middle of open fields and look like they will be sparsely contested.

E is the centre piece and where 90% of the fighting will take place, as envisioned by the map designers. Still looks like it will be a good armor map with tanks having room to actually maneuver.

side note : two armored vehicles looks inadequate for this type of map imo

yep constant flag exchanging. And from the looks of it it’s made for Operations with the 3 pairs of 2 flags.

I was happy to hear them bringing back majority control ticket bleeding but if all the maps are going to have even number of flags, what’s the point?
