Definitely, only decent classes on this map would be spec-ops, AT or engineer by the looks of things.

And maybe Support for some extra AT rockets, mines and C4!!

Let's just leave it at "it's not my cup of tea". I love that EA is actually releasing an update of sorts, and that they're still supporting the game.

You should spend some time in thought. And Number three is, you should have your emotions moved to tears, could be happiness or joy. But think about it. If you laugh, you think, and you cry, that's a full day. That's a heck of a day. You do that seven days a week, you're going to have something special."

just tried it...one question!

anyone has any ideas how many tanks a team can have by capping all the neutral flags. I'm guessing around 7-10 :drool: :crazy: :yeha:

PS..It is ranked, there are ~50 servers already

It's not ranked, people! :doh:

Beta's are never ranked. The only way it will be ranked is if it's included in a mandatory patch, which will most likely be the case.

Besides, I never got a points update from my 100+ point session on the map from last night.

It was not directed at you . It was generalisation .

Hey , I am all cool with it if its not your cup of tea . :yes:

Oh . Maestro ......... make sure to tick " Ranked " servers only where your filters are . They seem to be out there .
Friendly fire - isn't.

It can be played on Ranked servers. In fact, they're encouraging people to do so. Check out EA_Violet's thread on it here: http://forums.ea.com/mboards/thread.jspa…threadID=231518

It's not ranked.

I played about 6 hours yesterday and didn't even show up in my 30 day history of even playing. I've also been working towards my 100 hours for armor... been sitting at 80ish hours for the past couple of days. I've also tried several different ranked servers - doesn't make a difference.

I went in a emety one to look around and have a dumb question........... I got in a Tank and desroyed the jet for no real reason but the new shell loaded almost instantly I destroyed some more stuff each time the shell reloads pretty much right away.
So is this because I was the only one there?

A. I got points too. Dunno why, but Kills and points showed up.

2. I dig this map too. It's is a bit tedious if you are not in a vehicle, as you are miles from anything.

c. What a BRILLIANT idea, Chinese Infantry type City map no Air would be a GINORMOUS boost for BF2.

5. Gangs of tanks. . . Did you see any wearing bandanas?? What color were they? DID SOMEONE TRY TO SELL YOU DRUGS???

So I guess no one has noticed my update on the original post about the map being tested back in August 2005. I would have thought that would have been interesting to find out.

Now watch! After the main patch comes out there's going to be some serious tank haters that's gonna start their own I/O Tampa server and have everybody walking about 10 minutes each time to just to get from flag point to flag point...just watch and see! THEN like Jalabad, it's gonna turn into a sniper/medic fest because no one wants to walk that far. : :crazy:
