If we can have tiny maps for the Ipad kiddos who have the attention span of a goldfish we can have large maps for those of us who played the game when large maps were still a thing before the devs in their terrible wisdom decided they need to remake the maps , shrink the play area and move the spawns closer.
I’m dumbfounded why we cant have both? The game has a map ban system, expand upon it. Unlock all versions of the map and let players choose what maps they would like to have in their map pool, give everyone more map bans and the problem is solved.
And before anyone says this would increase the que time, no it wouldn’t , that sorry bull-crap of a excuse wont fly. Hell, I will gladly wait 5-10 min if I can avoid playing these arcade sized COD garbage maps and the remake the devs have done . Give me back the large OG ground maps before the devs ruined them.
Removing scouting would make it possible to move much more freely.
That’s because when scouted you oftentimes get teamed on (depending on where you and the enemies are). So in order to prevent that from happening players play very defiensively, just holding positions.
Removing scouting would free up the players and allow for a less shallow gameplay.
There are a lot of positions in the game that are either very effective, when staying mostly hidden, or they can be very bad, when being scouted.
Playing these positions is basically a roll of the dice since success will depend on if you get seen by a light tank or just a medium or heavy tank (or most TDs).
That renders these oftentimes more offensive positions useless unless you like gambling.
And no, it’s not possible just to “not get seen by anyone”.
In addition to that: Yes, scouting also punishes camping in unfair spots.
But that should rather be fixed by good map design than by a mechanic because the map designs are the real issue here, scouting just alleviates the symptoms.
