Current ones are tiny compared to what Iv'e seen in other games. (Battlefield franchise as a whole)
Heck a single district in Planetside 2 is bigger than the current maps. |

There was a five point map that they had on the last build that was friggin' huge.Pretty sure that it was as big,if not bigger than the MAG Domination maps.I wouldn't worry about the map sizes at all.If you push the R2 or L2 buttons before you spawn,you can zoom and expand the map to see just how big they are going to be. |

There probably won't be much time to explore when someone is shooting you in the back of the head.

Jokes aside. I can't wait to see new maps with larger areas for vehicle combat. Combat with the ever elusive fighter ships |

the last 5-point map they removed was considered a small map to CCP, like really do any of you do any research about this game? |

There's been talk of bloody ridiculous huge maps that take hours to play and you actually need vehicles to cross because you'd never get to the battlefield on foot. Does that sound big enough for you OP? |

Don't think they will be nearly that big.I think CCP has confirmed that the biggest map size maps is something like 5km x 5km,which if I'm not mistaken,isn't Arma 2 and the Operation Flashpoint games. |

Its going to be like planetside 2 where you can ride in a tank or car from district to district. For example, say i just kicked ass on the four letter map (plateus), i could then go and drive my Lav with a sqaud to the communication map (one of the small ambush maps). And so on and so forth, the difference is that there wont be fights happening on each of these maps at the same time because if they did..... Then all the players from one map would come over to another and obviously Ps3 couldn't handle those numbers.
So think of it as the Aquisition or Domination modes in MAG, Teams will fight for one location at a time, and work there way through to capturing the district. (atleast thats how it makes sense to me). |

5km by 5km is the size of fallout 3 map. Note the lack of plural, single player game with about 50 hours of playtime if you do side quests set completely in that map.
Omaha beach was 8km long, so the allied landings would take about 10 dust maps. CCP they could make 50km square maps easily, but didn't think they would be fun. This would be big enough to reenact most famous land battles.
The maps will grow larger as needed, unless we hit the limit of the ps3.
5km should be plenty though, 15.5 minutes for a scout to sprint across corner to corner, if he didn't run out of stamina for some reason. |

The maps are likely to get huge. Anybody who doesn't believe maps could ever get country-sized need only play Just Cause 2 for reference.
As for when we'll get them, use patience. There are still hit detection issues, and vehicles won't be very helpful if their turrets continue to suffer from inheritance (which has gotten much worse - I actually fired a missile 60 degrees off-reticule!).
Until those issues are fixed, it would actually hurt testing to have maps much larger than what we have already, as there would be much more downtime in a match, reducing the test data that can be gathered in a specific timeframe. |
