The Squad Deathmatch variant takes place in the Park. The Team Deathmatch variant takes place in the Cafe and Ticket Hall areas. This flag is located in a large room with many pillars and signs.Many hallways and tunnels lead to the US deployment. The stairways are one of the biggest choke points in this map To the left is a set of stairs that lead down a level which leads you to the same long room as the escalators. Behind the flag is a set of escalators that lead straight to C. The flag is located in the middle of a large open hallway, there are three entrances on the east, and another three from the west. Destruction has been added all throughout Battlefield 3, so players will have to constantly change strategy and work around building destruction. These rooms are often called metro glitch rooms by server admins, but have been designed to add another strategy to the game. There are also 3 hidden rooms where the doors are blocked off, you can jump into or destroy walls in order to get in. As mentioned before the US team can "spawn trap" the Russian team by setting up in the buildings and covering the generally open area between the deployment and the flag. The flag can be captured from most of these buildings. The flag is located in the centre of an open plaza, this is surrounded on both sides by two apartment buildings. All lanes lead to the Platform and provides enough cover to make it relatively easy to hold and defend the area. There are many hallways linking the tunnels together. There are two subway tunnels running parallel to each other. The US Deployment is at the at the entrance to the subway itself. This area is open, and a weak Russian team can easily be pushed back in to the deployment area, as the road, stock exchange, and area between them is generally well covered by the buildings surrounding the Cafe flag. Many stairs and a road lead to the Cafe and Ticket Hall respectively. The avenue also has some cover provided by destroyed cars and buses. The Russian Deployment is in the Euronext Paris exchange building and overlooks an avenue and Cafe. Since Conquest and Conquest 64 have the same map with no changes a lot of these strategies can apply to both. Like Damavand Peak, Operation Métro in Conquest mode is a very linear map. The second and last M-COM is placed in the same spot as the A M-COM in Stage 4 of Rush. The M-COM is placed in the same spot as the B M-COM in Stage 3 of Rush. Between these buildings is a square in which Alpha is at a close proximity. There are several buildings overlooking Bravo. There are also two more stairways between the two main paths. One is a stairway and the other is a ramp. Once outside, there are two main paths which lead to Bravo. One is partially blocked by a bus, one has a building to one side, and another leads to the road. There are 3 exits to the metro straight ahead, to the right and to the left. The A M-COM is located in the left building in the outside, while B is located between buses in the road overlooked by the Euronext Paris exchange. An area that defenders often become isolated to is the passage above A M-COM, and behind the B M-COM. Subway cars and tipped over objects provide most of the cover. The area is very linear and filled with chokepoints. B is in a construction area while A is in a restroom. The M-COMs are in the lower layer of the Subway Station, making them closer to each other. Both are in fairly open areas, but have small walls to take cover behind and around them. Bravo is located on a playground surrounded by green panels. Alpha is located near the bridge between the park and the defender's spawn point.
Russian Surface-to-Air missiles in the outskirts of the park are likely to be the first target as the US Marines attempt to gain control of the airspace ahead of the main ground assault.īoth M-COMs are in Generator sections powering Russian SAM Radar sites. Heavy fighting is expected as US forces push to secure the financial district in central Paris. With limited air support, the French are struggling to mobilize enough forces into the central districts of Paris.
Reports indicate the French Air Force is suffering heavy casualties due to a series of anti-air batteries around Chardonnay Park. The attacking platoon of the United States Marine Corps is supporting a French paratrooper force that will surprise the Russians by air-dropping behind enemy lines. Operation Métro is set in Paris, France, similar to Seine Crossing, but takes place in a park, the underground metro system, and a cafe surrounded by apartment buildings and the Paris Stock Exchange.
