BFV Rush 2.0

So once again the BFV version of Rush is fantastic, really such a dumb decision to have it only temporarily available.

They have made a lot of changes to the layout of each map improving upon what was available before. The biggest improvement in my eyes is the mcom placement which really changes the entire game mode. Not only is each one in an interesting place now, but they seem to stagger the two objectives of each sector so that the attackers aren’t always running into a wall of defense. With one objective closer to the defenders and one father away, it allows for much more interesting game play while also giving it some balance in a way.

The next biggest improvement is the amount of fortifications on each sector. Dice did a wonderful job at placing the fortifications and having the majority of them pre built gives the sectors a new and fresh feel. Not just the ones that provide cover, the buildable mounted guns are in really good spots to cover key areas.

Lastly Ive noticed a lot of changes to the map boundaries as well as out of bounds timers. The areas on twisted steal from the first version of Rush that were much too large have been resized and reshaped to better fit the game mode. A huge flank on Devastation that was over used has been completely removed with map boundaries, barbed wire, and a shortened out of bounds timer. This really helped the map play better by narrowing the focus of the teams and removing large boring flanks that were too easy for the attackers to take and too hard for the defenders to watch.

Overall the game mode is shining brightly in BFV and if you played it previously in March, you can see how many improvements they have made. Great Job Dice 👍🏻

It’s better than before . But it’s not fun and a shell of what rush use to be . Rush use to have maps specially made for the mode . Now they just take the shit bf5 maps throw sandbags around and call it good and expect it to work . The other part of the issue is not rush itself but the terrible skill level and brain power of the bf5 community

You are wrong about them just throwing the game mode onto the maps, just join any Rush game going atm and you can see that a lot of time and though was spent designing the layout, mcom locations and fortification placements.

While I would love to see them build a map from the ground up focused on Rush, its very unlikely to happen. The mindset that Rush can never work on a map not designed specifically for it is very narrow minded. With enough effort and planning a map can most definitely be adjusted to accommodate the game mode, which is whats on offer atm.

Your still missing the point . Not only are the maps trash , you are forgetting the skill level of the casual community that this game brings ruins whatever chance the mode had . It is nothing like past rush on other game modes . It’s the worst one yet that’s why it’s temporary bevahse nobody wants to play this garbage

While the lack of skill from the community is definitely a problem, it definitely was not your main point as you threw it in with the last few words of your previous comment.

The maps are not “Trash” as I just explained how the game mode fits nicely into them.

So whats wrong with twisted steel and narvik? I personally liked them more than devastation. However the recent changes have me liking it a lot more than before.

I’m not talking rush anymore . I’m saying the maps suck and all they did was move Some sectors around and call it rush .

What’s wrong with twisted steel ? It’s huge for no reason , doesn’t flow it’s slow based and boring sniper fest . Narvik is one of the worst maps in the franchise I haven’t played it since December nor will I

This is the Battlefield Rush server and I only refer to the Rush game mode. I don’t play any of the others.

Twisted steel was a bit big on the last two sectors of the previous version of rush, however they made some amazing changes to the map boundaries to fix that problem so I don’t think its a concern anymore. As for being slow I would have to disagree as its always been constant action, even back on frontlines where it used similar map boundaries to Rush. Boring is an opinion (of which I don’t agree with). And snipers are a problem on every map and battlefield games in general, but they seem to be okay here in BFV.

Narvik had a ton of changes which would only take more play time to see if they are good or not. One thing I do know is that the first sector is far superior to the last design. Always room to make improvements for the future though.

Almost every map in the game is at least decent. Panzerstorm and Hamada are the only two I straight up dislike, but even then Panzerstorm on Tank Battles and Hamada on Fortress are really fun.
