I rarely get into games with vehicles. I seem to do horrible against them, but rock in smaller maps. Should I shell out the cash when it goes on sale? ---

How many maps can do 16 or just 32? ---

Conquest = Battlefield series. So yes there is conquest. ---

It seems like you want to avoid conquest. That game mode (along with Conquest Large, Rush and Obliteration) include large versions of each map with vehicles. Team Deathmatch, Squad Deathmatch and Domination are the only game modes that use a smaller version of each map and are infantry only. Seems like that’s where you want to stay. Luckily, there are plenty of servers that offer just these game modes. ---

Is it true that every map has a “smaller version,” so essentially there are as many small maps are there are large? ---

There are 10 main maps. (more to come with DLC) Each map has different “versions” which is really just the same map but with different areas available for play. This is the same way that it worked in BF3. If you played domination on a map you wouldn’t be able to go to the same areas as conquest. And obviously rush has different areas available at different times. ---

Bf is all about big maps and coordination. If you don’t like that, you’re definitely not playing the game to it’s potential. ---

Every map can do 16 or 32… I’m guessing you play on console based on some of your comments if the server browser is anything like PC then you simply pick the server with the max players that you want.. note that just because a server has 16 players doesn’t mean the map is small.. some gametypes will make the map small, but a 16 man conquest on shanghai is going to be the whole map same as 64 man conquest. ---

This game is terrible and no map has that close quarter feel. Full of bugs and spammers ---

What do you play on? I think all of the Domination maps have a nice close quarter feel, and some of the TDM also. Rush is great if it’s the right map with the right number of people. I have not encountered any spammers. There are certainly bugs; DICE already acknowledged that and is working on them. It’s a lot like BF3 launch and sadly like just about every other EA launch lately… that being said, the bugs will go away over time and even if there are spammers it has nothing to do with the particular game. ---

As much as COD annoys me.. dream\_\_weaver is correct. BF is made to be epic.. imo the small maps are good for warm up and mixing it up and quickly leveling your weapons. ---

I have a similar playstyle, or preference. There is a jail level that is CQBish with long hallways that makes for excellent choke points. There are no vehicles. It is great on a Large Conquest (5 capture points/flags) and 16 or 24 players. And you can select a server that has 50%-75% health so the kills are much faster than standard play. That is pretty much all I play right now. [Next page](https://battlefieldforum.co/t/while-i-enjoy-bf3-i-generally-prefer-faster-paced-and-or-smaller-maps-is-bf4-right-for-me/110206.md?page=2)
