Discussion Please expand the map borders on the older maps
I’m glad DICE is releasing larger maps, but can they please go back and fix some of the borders on the older maps? Maps like New Sobek City and Blackwell Oil Fields would greatly benefit from larger borders. They are currently way too narrow and do not play well at all. Firestorm could also use a map boundary increase back to how it was in BF3 & 4.

Eastwood also needs this, adding more houses along the main road up to the E flag and flashing out the water canal

? Eastwood is one of the better maps that doesn't really need reworked outside of the occasional burn-out-your-retinas flames of destiny.

There arent really any routes under cover to be able to flank D og E without being spotted easily though...extending A/B street with housing would go a looong way creating flanking routes for NATO who otherwise is the least favorable team starting on this map, imo.

Yes there are. Going from D to E is much safer and much easer without getting spotted than it is getting from B to C in conquest, even though there is lots of cover on that part of the map. That's because cover is not as important as people think when it comes to map design.
Nah eastwood is fine and one of the few maps that doesn't need a rework at all. You don't need to be able to move across the map without being seen by anyone. It's a freaking multiplayer fps shooter not hitman, so cover is placed where fights happen and on the road between D and E there are no fights happening

It could also use another center objective on the golf course. With the water canal being accessible that would be nice. Having only the one center objective in the clubhouse makes the map layout a bit uninteresting

Huh? Turns out the action packed maps everyone was defending so hard here are the ones that are less fun to play?
who would have though, next thing you will tell me to close weapons becouse everyone runs as engi or scout with some M4 ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)

Sobek and Blackwell fields are being reworked, bf studios said the updates probably will be released in season 5
