  • Blog post from the lead designer of Close Quarters. Gotta admit, the destruction on these maps is going to be ridiculous.

    Very interested to see how they do conquest and rush on these maps. Could be very good or very bad.

    Hopefully they nerf the USAS sufficiently.

    Did you read it?

    It'll be an altered version of Conquest called Conquest Domination. The difference is that it will use the spawn system from TDM. It will not have Rush.

  • "While HD Destruction has a significant impact on how you experience the second-to-second gameplay, we also had to tackle the challenges of bringing our tried and tested game modes to the smaller scale. We understood quickly that Rush, being a large and progressive mode that takes you on a journey from M-COM to M-COM, simply wouldn’t fit physically. So instead, we turned our attention to Conquest. How could we tailor this essential Battlefield game mode to fit our new type of environment?

    I spoke to my Game Designer Gustav Halling who, like me, has a history of competitive FPS gaming. We remembered Unreal Tournament from way back in 1999. It was the first time the world saw the game mode “Domination”, which is very similar to Conquest. There are some differences though, and the Domination type gameplay usually takes place on smaller maps, much like the ones we were creating.

    Inspired by these memories, we used the spawning systems from Battlefield 3 Team Deathmatch and came up with a Conquest mode adapted for smaller spaces. We called it Conquest Domination, and it worked beautifully. In particular, flag defense is suddenly more important, and you get different tactical layers due to the subtle differences the new mode provides. It’s reminiscent of those tactics I practiced to perfection in my e-sports days. Listen for the footsteps, spray the wall, throw your grenade, cover one angle each and constantly communicate. The experience grows with our tried and tested squad play mechanics, and the intensity and pure challenge of trying to dominate these close quarters is something I’m convinced will put even the best squads to the test.

    Designing a new experience isn’t easy. Many things were created and tested, many things didn’t fit, and there are millions of fans whose wishes you want to fulfill. Ultimately, it’s about finding a meaningful core idea, and realizing it with relentless attention to detail."

    I didn't read it but I read the other day it will have conquest and rush. That was coming from the head guy at DICE.

    Then they need to make up their damn mind or get on the same page.

    Honestly the more I read about this DLC the less I like. If it were just maps and not guns I wouldn't even buy it. I am still debating on whether to buy it or not but I probably will just for the new guns.

    I can at least use those on vanilla.
