In this chapter you will find the map of Rotterdam in the Frontlines mode. The chapter contains a general characteristic of the map, map legend, as well as descriptions of flags in terms of available covering spots. The Battlefield 5 game guide will guide you on the battlefield.
Characteristic of the map
Rotterdam is a narrow city, cut throughout by canals. The city has a railway bridge, partly destroyed, that can be used to fire at some of the points (C and B by the German points and mainly C from the British side).
Encounters on this map are a mix of fights in narrow streets and inside buildings. Key to win here is to use the terrain, ruins and wreckages. The map gives opportunities to attack from a distance (especially along the canals), as well as in direct encounters.
Point A is located near the white building - similarly to point B, there are multiple cover spots there. Using smoke grenades and pushing the enemy back is key here. Point C can be found in the place where point D was in the Conquest mode. There are multiple cover spots and ruins there, you can also fortify the area quite heavily. When attacking all of those points, you should be using cover near the canal, as well as the canal itself.
After capturing 3 flags by your team, your task will be to destroy 3 points near the enemy base. In the scenario in which the enemy captured 3 flags, your team will be forced to defend its own points near the base. Regardless of the side controlling the flags, the attacking side has a limited amount of tickets to perform the assault. The game ends once all of the points are destroyed or when at the end of the map one of the sides has more defensive points. Playing as part of a team is crucial here - if you do not have it or there is no one alive at the moment, you will need to travel back to the battlefield from the last captured point.
Starting from the British side, two points will be difficult to destroy, due to the distance between them. On the one hand there are multiple cover spots there, on the other, however, you will find a long alley near the bridge that must be crossed - there is a lot of open space there. One of those points is located on the bridge. If you are on the attacking side, you can access the bridge earlier, from the market.
Points to destroy near the German base are placed symmetrically to the points near the British base. Point A is the easiest to destroy. Points B and C are more difficult - they are close to one another, but on different floors. It is easier to attack the point located higher, as you will be able to receive support from a tank there. The point located below it forces players to fight on close and middle range. There are multiple cover spots here.
