What you've described is a certified server killer. When I was a little boy, I liked playing this map a lot against the bots. I would capture the main bridge and sit on the machine gun all round mowing down anything that dared to come close.

My solution from a map design point of view would be: - Remove all planes - Make the US base captureable (Conquest Assault) - Have the church start off as US owned - Move the 2 sherman spawns from the church to the US main. Also means no tanks there for Germany when captured - Move the US parachute spawn between the church and the city square, link its US availability to them owning the church flag: when Germany owns it, US cant use it anymore. And then you have an alternative Tobruk with bridges and parachutes!

Thank you for making this series, it's been fun to go back and see your perspective on these maps, it's nice to get a pro players reasons as to why these maps are bad. One map I think you should easily put in the bad category is BF4's conquest Altai Range. I play on console so it might be different, but 2 mobile AA's, a large US disadvantage, very open objectives that get wiped by splash damage vehicles and lots more. Whatever you decide to do next, I will definitely be watching! *Edit: two flag based mobile AA spawns

With the potential for 1 team to have THREE super strong mobile aa's at a time! Yea, Altai is on the list. Have no fear.

I feel like you never played this maps in its peak, the amount of b17s I shoot down with the main gun on a tank was insane, the half track was a good AA if you took slightly of a cap point behind a building, plus the panzer fast rounds kept planes at bay, plus the b17 constantly team killing the mustangs as they fight over kills and crashing into each other. I played this game for 14 years and it was never about the most kills it was about the win. This map was highly popular

Appreciate the feedback. I most definitely played it many times during its peak. I also do not disagree with anything you say. It was a popular map, but then, at the time many objectively bad maps were popular. That is not to say people didnt have fun on them, or frustrations. It certainly wasnt one of overwhelming acclaim. But Ill also add that because there were 24/7 servers for the map back then, people who all liked it were all in one place. And yea, those 50s on the half track were great.

This, Kursk, and Battle of the Bulge are by far my least favorite BF1942 maps. Almost always skips for me when they came on server rotation.

If you were infantry you could use the speedboats to get across the vater faster ( I'm not sure if they appear in vanilla map)

Another custom map alteration. No boats in the vanilla version :D

I thought it was a fun map and did not find it to be lop sided…
