Infantry-only map: Berlin Subway

Inspired by World at War, the Berlin U-Bahn might be an interesting way of introducing infantry-only combat.

The Berlin U-Bahn saw fierce fighting in claustrophobic conditions, although the tracks themselves provide some space for longer engagements.

There’s a possibility of including secondary objectives, like on Airfield. The Germans flooded some subway lines to slow down the Russians, which could be a potential secondary objective - activating or preventing the flood.

remind me so much about a map on cod waw campaign.

Yea this looks cool but I wonder about situations such as an Mg34 or Flak gun completely blocking a choke point. But aside from that I’ll approve of it.

Ideally there would be long sight lines flanked by side rooms and corridors, and not a Metro situation with one long tube along the entire map.

Very nice and interesting suggestion. Would love to have such a type of map in Berlin

I want this and a Reichstag invasion map

What do you mean no vehicles. I’m going to use my ace combat experience to fly a fucking me 262 into the subway then dunk on the point with 2 250 kilo bombs

Ah I would fload said tunnels and man my U-boat as I fire torpedos to the sound of Erica on my vinil player on commander post.

An invasion on the Reichstag first, it’s still not normal on the battle of berlin we don’t have the Reichstag invasion while we have secondary maps…

This right here, the first thing I had flashbacks to was BF3 Metro. Very fun times

Konigsplatz needs a sequel invasion map that takes place inside the Reichstag itself with the last cap being at the roof. Strictly infantry only too like how the hell you can get tanks inside the buildings anyway.

I’m sure that’s in the works. Ideally one day we’d get both.

Good idea. Normandie also needs a pure CQC map, without planes and tanks, like Chernyshevs in Moscow.

As long as it’s kind of “exception” that we have infantry only map it’s ok. I hope that it won’t become new map design trend.

At least it’s the case in Normandie, which is full of Cod-style Cqc maps

Excellent idea, i support this.

I’d certainly love such a map! It would be even better (if not more claustrophobic) if that setting was very dark, so that every muzzle flash would get veeery visible. That would be quite an ambiance.

they wont make infantry maps the norm, they make too much $ from prem vehicles, so having maybe 1/5 maps infantry would prob be the max if they do it. I hope we do get a map or 2 for each campaign
