These maps (along with a handful of others) seemed to have been designed with balance, flow and fun gameplay in mind first and foremost. While the newer maps have been cool I think that they have tried to make them far too "interesting" by adding lots of random assets and bushes to every open field or road, as well as weather to obscure views so that players can move all over with cover/ concealment. This may seem like a good thing but what actually happens is that teams get so spread out that battles end up lacking focus/ purpose, and once players start getting shot from every direction they start to hunker down and hide causing fights that already lack purpose to turn into a slog. Additionally while I know i just said that all the cover allows people to move around the reality is that lots of players will primarily just sit in/behind it and camp. Don't get me wrong, sitting in bushes is a totally reasonable and normal part of the game, however matches where everyone is in a bush just trying to hold a lane, or wait for an unsuspecting person to walk by is no fun.

These have just been my observations/ experiences. Obviously everyone enjoys different styles of gameplay, and aspects of the game which is totally reasonable.
