After the BF4 Beta finished, I had a crazy thought. Why couldn't the top of the Shanghai tower be the entire Ziba Tower map? I realise they are two different buildings, but hear me out.

DICE are adamant on trying to compete with COD with Close Quarter combat and this would keep both sets of players happy. You could even go further still, have three flags to capture as per the original map and to every one outside the building it appears as a single flag colour depending on which team controls 2 or more of the three flags inside the building.

This would keep the BF fans happy, with open maps and vehicle warfare and the COD players happy with close and tight gameplay. without having to sacrifice game mode or reduced map size. This would also stop Helicopters massacring everyone at the top, with plenty of places to still play inside, away from the heli's attack.  Obviously with the tower collapsing, the top map would be gone and its back to normal.
 
Its an idea, its up to DICE to decide if its worthy or even practical.

Ive been playing a far bit of Black ops2 recently and ive started to notice ALOT of people throwing C4 and detonating it within seconds. the effect is a grenade with twice the power and damage radius. very effective don't get me wrong, I can understand why people do this. BUT WTF.?

To hold both the explosive and detonator you need two hands FACT.! you can't juggle both in one hand with still aiming a 3kg assault rifle in the other. The range people throw this high explosive is ridiculous. It can weight 3-5kgs, even with full assault combat gear, your not going to be able to throw it far and to detonate it within seconds is suicide.  

Depending of the size and density of the package it an level houses with ease. Do you really want to just chuck this round a corner or over a small wall and BOOM.!? The blast would take the enemy, you and half the map with it.  I know its just a game and I shouldnt take things too seriously, perhaps im just jealous because I cant mash the right buttons quick enough for the same effect? but its becoming a common thing and that's not what C4 is designed or intended for. That's why they have frags and semtex to throw. C4 is to be placed on the ground or wall and blown at the correct time, its a waiting game not a toy to be thrown out the pram. so a erge developers to correct this. No point in asking gamers to stop, because by writing this half of you will now try it anyway. Have a delay of 4seconds so you cant detonate straight away. The package must be placed on the ground before it goes boom even just having to hold the C4 explosive and detonator in hand to use would help. non of this quick button bang and your dead.
