> [@SirTenko](#): > > If you go back and play Conquest EVEN in Bf2(ALL BATTLEFIELD GAMES HAVE THIS EXCEPT 1943) you can see the same problem. Isnt tickets,or bleed.

With Great Balance and map design/aesthetics and all its greatness for all its game modes,(Rush,STDM,TDM,Conquest.) THE WORST MAPS AtacamaDesert,HarvestDay and HeavyMetal were also the _ **BIGGEST** _ Same _ **EXACT** _ issues. Too many flags. Lots of camping. Lots of Back-Capping(Running around the edge of the map and capturing A while you capture D) > > Sadly there is nothing you can do about it. The rest of Bad Company 2’s maps were designed around RUSH so they were CHOKED/Funneled with TONS of No-Go-Zones to FORCE players to interact, But DICE hasnt done this since so This issue will lead to the death of conquest for those even still playing it. New players just dont play like we did back in Bf1942. just had a blast on bc2 and bc2/vietnam. what a refreshing change from sniperfield 5. ty for reminding me on how good it is. ---

What a classic Forum post, all passion, no accuracy. People just like to rant, and if they can’t find something to rant about they’re happy to just make up something. ---

Firestorm. The fun for infantry map I discovered 2 years after I had quit playing BF4. Think I added another 20 hours to my total BF4 play time just on that map. ---

Firestorm was a BF3 map and remaster for BF4. But I agree one of my faves. I also really likes Oman, Caspian Border got old quick ---

> [@OLDSKOOL1908](#): > > Dice lost it, bad company 3 needs to come fast. Bf5 will be dead in 6 months. I’d like for DICE to make Bad Company 3 as well. But, we’ll have to wait for it longer. As for BFV being “dead” in 6 months, I hear someone play that card everytime an BF game comes out (BFBC series, BF3, BF4, BF Hardline & BF1). But, players STILL play 6 months after it’s release & BFV won’t be any different. ---

finally made conquest enjoyable again. There’s a lot less mass zerging and more people actually defend flags now. ---

> [@JamieCurnock](#): > > finally made conquest enjoyable again. There’s a lot less mass zerging and more people actually defend flags now. Defend flags? Nah. I’m seeing a lot of people camp just outside flags waiting for victims, but staying after a flag is taken to actually defend? Not that I’m seeing. ---

It’s a smart move to cut off entry into the flag zone if you know the direction the enemy will be flooding in rather than sitting on the flag which people might expect. ---

Except you see them camping outside those flags whether or not they are friendly or enemy and they don’t move in to help defend or take those flags, they just camp and stat/score pad because camping is super profitable and being on objectives is super risky. ---

It’s a smart move to cut off entry into the flag zone if you know the direction the enemy will be flooding in rather than sitting on the flag which people might expect. This kind of “defending the flag” can also be done in vehicles as was done on Flood Zone in BF4 - rolling back and forth on the overpass farming kills without capping a single flag - you know, playing team deathmatch in a conquest game. ---

I’m seeing a lot of people camp just outside flags waiting for victims, but staying after a flag is taken to actually defend? Not that I’m seeing. Really? Fair enough. My point is that in my experience more people defend flags than in bf1, that was the worst conquest experience in the franchose. Concerning your point, if they have taken the flag already then what is wrong with waiting just outside the flag area? It’s called positioning, taking a vantage point over the point your are protecting. If too many people get into the objective area you can quickly move back and take it. It’s a completely legitimate tactic although I assume this is camping? Do you want people to just stand at the base of the flag? Or just stand out in the open so advancing enemies can see them? That’s just dumb and a really bad tactic. ---
