Battlefield 6 Participant Proves It Has The Franchise’s Smallest Maps

Since Battlefield 6‘s beta, fans have complained that EA’s on-line FPS has smaller maps than these present in earlier entries. And when the sport lastly launched final month, these complaints solely grew because it turned clear that BF6 nonetheless lacked actually large battlegrounds. Now, a fan has crunched the numbers and completed the laborious work to precisely examine the maps right here to previous maps from the principle collection and confirmed that, yeah, Battlefield 6′s assortment of maps is the smallest.

On November 2, Reddit user ClaratheRed posted an image exhibiting a visible dimension comparability of a few of the many maps from Battlefield 3, 4, BF1, Hardline, 2042, and the just lately launched BF6. (Higher res version here.) And a fast look confirms what many followers have complained about since launch: Battlefield’s largest maps are fairly small when in comparison with a few of the actually large warzones present in previous video games.

In reality, based on ClaratheRed’s knowledge, BF6‘s largest map is Operation Firestorm, which is ironically a remake of a Battlefield 3 map. And even BF6‘s largest map doesn’t crack the highest 30 greatest maps in Battlefield historical past. In the meantime, most of BF6‘s other maps are literally a few of the smallest based on ClaratheRed’s knowledge. Consider, although, that this comparability put up doesn’t appear to incorporate video games launched earlier than BF3, and doesn’t embody BFV, so, it’s not an ideal, all-encompassing knowledge set. Nonetheless, even with that caveat, ClaratheRed’s knowledge is fascinating and revealing. (In addition they confirmed their work, which leads me to consider this knowledge is, if not 100% correct, shut sufficient.)

The fact is that, yeah, Battlefield 6′s maps are, usually talking, a few of the smallest maps within the recreation’s historical past. One of BF6‘s maps, Saints’ Quarters, is actually the second-smallest map according to this data. So for those who needed proof that BF6‘s maps are small, here you go. You can share this link and the Reddit post with friends to settle debates or win some internet arguments. And while the game’s smaller maps aren’t stopping me from having fun with it, I do miss the actually large areas present in previous video games and hope they return in a future season.
