    Sorry for not providing links because I'm on my phone but if you just go to ign they detail the 3 new packs coming out

    One is called close quarters which you guessed it, is involved only inside buildings which makes it infantry only noooo vehicles. This pack is said to have 4 maps and some new weapons

    Second is called armored kill and they claim it I the biggest map(s) the team has ever made. My guess is there will be vehicles (sarcasm)

    Lastly I called end day and it has no details whatsoever.

    I could always use more bf3 but I'm a little cautious about this total indoors maps. Anyway what do you guys think of this?


    If anyone could link a source it would be greatly appreciated =)

    Looking forward to this "armored kill", I really hope this isn't the "Biggest maps we've ever made with 1 fifth of each as the playable area" but rather "biggest maps we've ever made over half of each can be traversed" mentality. 
     
    As in, Gulf of Oman playable area, not Operation Firestorm. 
     
    Edit: It's freaking stupid that they're not mixing both map types within these expansions. 2 big 2 small ones in each expansion to keep pleasing both sides, rather than 4 small ones now and 4 big ones later!

    As someone who only plays Assault and is useless against vehicles, i really enjoy the smaller interior maps so I'm really looking forward to the Close Quaters Map Pack.

    They already released Back to Karkand which are large maps so i'm happy they are changing things up with some smaller ones.

    @zombie2011: I don't mind inside maps, but I mind when they're poorly designed(ALA OP Metro). I just don't think DICE knows how to make a good one. I would love to be wrong though.

    @AhmadMetallic You commented on my bf3 thread? Is it weird I feel honored? Probably not but anyway I totally agree. I actually like shaking things up with metro after playing a big outside map so I'm kinda ok with close quarters stuff. But I do wish that they would just push back the date and combine the two. Also early implications are the last dlc will be story content… but I sure hope not, don't remember the last time i played that campaign

    Metro is an insult and big slap in the face. It is the antithesis to what makes Battlefield enjoyable. It is a direct response to drag in COD players to bump up sales. That being said I have had some dumb fun on it trying to suicide my way up the escalators during conquest.

    Counter-sniping with M1014 and the 7x scope is so much more rewarding.

    Hopefully the Close Quarters maps will be better laid out so that there isn't just a giant cluster fuck in the middle, I'm looking at you Metro. I'm really looking forward to the Armored Kill expansion though.

    Here's a link too.

    actually my favorite loadout for that map is Famas with 7x scope, heavy barrel and foregrip.

    I've wanted a close quarters map for awhile now, if you're going to have infantry only maps, make them somewhat complex, don't make them a tunnel like op metro.

    I would like to see at least one map that resurrected the Titan mode from Battlefield 2142 but with battleships, and all the combat would be water and air, with the exception infantry combat upon breaching the other team's battleship.

    Yeah. When I first read "Close Quarters" my first reaction was, nope not buying that. Maybe they won't be awful. I hope so.

    So damn excited about this. Sounds dumb, but I don't care what the maps are as long as they're well made. I'm more than ready to learn the nooks and crannies of more BF3 maps.

    I'll pass, all I need is Wake Island and Karkand. I'm not a fan the Vanilla BF3 maps.
