Grand Bazaar

Grand Bazaar is a multiplayer map in Battlefield 3. The map was revealed when IGN uploaded it with a developer commentary with Patrick Bach playing on Rush. The map is set in central Tehran, in the Grand Bazaar. The map features weather conditions being damp and drizzling rain. The map has Farsi grafitti sprayed across the walls of the bazaar itself, along with PLR propaganda posters. lt is similar to Operation Metro in Rush, featuring open areas and tight alleyways. The Russian Spetsnaz are still the defenders and the United States Marine Corps are the attackers.

In Rush and Squad Rush mode, each team starts roughly equal distance away from the objectives, and is overall one of the easiest sets of objectives to capture ever in a battlefield game that featured Rush games. Most of the fighting is in close quarters inside buildings, or medium range down the main street.

The second set of objectives is around a marketplace. One objective is mixed in with the stalls while the other is back in a tunnel, and often poorly defended since much more action occurs near the first one.

The third and fourth sets of objectives take place in much more open environments similar to the highway featured early in the singleplayer campaign, with a couple overpasses that players can take up positions on. Combat gets a bit more focused on timing here, because tanks are now involved, and if the attackers don't take the objectives quickly, they can quickly find themselves on the defensive.

Description
''The battle for central Tehran has reached its second week, and what was expected to be over within days now continues as Russian and US forces clash for control over this ancient city. The producers wanted to do something very urban in the city center of Tehran. The fiction has you coming in two weeks after fighting started, so the tight and narrowly built city has a great deal of destruction already when you spawn into the game. Grand Bazaar is a classically mirrored map where both sides have very similar pathways, sideways, and possibilities to traverse heights to get a better view of the action. It’s a very short range close quarter combat map where shotguns tend to be favored.''
