Re: "Road to Jalalabad" Discussion

...If dice doesn't realise the majority of Battlefield 2 players like and enjoy small, infantry based and close quarter fights like Karkand, Sharqi and Mashtuur, then they've failed as a developer.

Maybe the majority f players you play and hang out with becaue you like CQC but the vast majority of people paying are playing ALL the maps, not just Karkand.

Re: "Road to Jalalabad" Discussion

I think it will be very karkand-like..
*google earth pic*
A big town with a river and a lot of sand.
They maybe saw that karkand is the most popular map and so they give us a "new version" of it. Hooray! :)

BUT maybe they don't mean Jalalabad in Afghanistan but Dzhalal Abad in Kyrgyzstan :)
*google earth pic*
A small town which is surrounded by green grass and high mountains.

I'm curious about it!

Re: "Road to Jalalabad" Discussion

yea that's why most of the famous servers are city maps servers
also that's why admin choose a citymap to fill it up if his server is empty because it will fill up faster.

Boy are you naive.
Yes there is a decent population of people who concentrate on the small infantry maps but that in no way represents the majority of players.
They're still the minority but they also tend to be more vocal.
BF2 is about vehicles. Always has been always will be.

Re: "Road to Jalalabad" Discussion

As long as there are no jets, the patch and map are most welcome.

Re: "Road to Jalalabad" Discussion

i want a map that needs TEAMWORK to win, nothing else will do..

lets say your team has to move from base to base one by one and so a whole team push is needed, lots of places for snipers..some transport choppers...some jeeps

mabe a tank on each side, lots of cover, 1 fighter plane on each side for air support but difficult terrain so that bombing is alot more difficult

Re: "Road to Jalalabad" Discussion

Ho hmmm a vehicle centric game is it?
On Karkand 64 there are three pieces of armour for each team meaning 3/32 or 1/10 of people are in armour, maybe a few more are in jeeps but the majority are on foot.
Sharqi 64 has one attack helo and 1 or 2 pieces of armour per team for either 3/32 or 4/32 players in an attack vehicle.
Mashtuur 64 has no attack helis and two tanks on the whole map. 1/32 players on each team in an offensive vehicle.
These are some of the most popular maps, and they are NOT vehicle centric at all. I get tired of lamers complaining how people dont like vehicles interfering with them. I dont mind a few vehicles but they are AUXILIARY to play in the most popular maps.
The people that moan about Karkand players are the kind of people who think that its fun to rape infantry with jets and armour, little realising that the other 9/10s of players have a pretty low opinion of them.

I pulled your stats and unsurprisingly you are shockingly appalling bad with any and all infantry weapons,

http://bf2s.com/player/44929322/

could this be the reason you are such a crybaby about infantry players?

Then I went on game-monitor and sorted by BF2 rank

http://www.game-monitor.com/search.php?game=bf2&order=grank

Unsurprisingly the most popular servers play city maps and Karkand inparticular, why dont you just admit that it is YOU who is in the minority.

Most people are playing Urban Based maps, theres heaps of Karkand only, or favourite maps which involves, Sharqi, Mashtuur and Karkand. People like these maps. Maybe the people you play with, are not on Urban Based maps.

Re: "Road to Jalalabad" Discussion

BF2 is not all about the vehicles, its all about the option to use vehicles there are only small ammounts of vehicles in each map, which suggests its only an option for a lucky few...

Re: "Road to Jalalabad" Discussion

i want a BF1942 style vehicle war map, large maps were amazing in bf1942, the ones in bf2 arent much fun for some reason.

First of all, I don't have a ton of my life to waste away at this game like so many of the stat whores. I don't really care too much about my stats, I play for fun when I can with my clanmates. IMO stats are what has ruin the BF community.
When I do play I do primarily use vehicles. Not because I don't like infantry combat or am no good at it but because I choose to be in a vehicle.
Does this make my infantry combat skill suffer? Possibly. Do I really care? No.
The fact that you would bring my stats into this conversation shows me that that's all you care about. Just like all the other stat & Karkand whores.

Let's get real. the ONLY reason Karkand is popular is because it's the easiest map to whore points on. PERIOD. It's been proven.
Why do you think all the so called stat leaders play on Karkand only servers? Because they like it so much?? Hell no. Because it's a point fest.
If Dalian Plant turned out to be the Easiest map to get points on you can bet it would be the most popular Map. There'd be 24/7 Dalian server ALL over the place.
So you can take you Karkand popularity figures and shove them. They don't prove a damn thing except that all the point whores play there.

The BF series is and always will be about the vehicles.
I hope they do offer an Infantry only setting so all you whores will go away from the real game.

You people are trying to turn BF into CS because that's where the majority of Karkand whores came from. They were drawn to BF2 because of the stats and now they want to change the game to suit them. That's a bunch of crap. They are also the first people to cry when EA/DICE changes something to make the game more like BF and less like CS. It's their game not yours.

BF2 is not all about the vehicles, its all about the option to use vehicles there are only small ammounts of vehicles in each map, which suggests its only an option for a lucky few...

yes..that's why the AF booster has TONS of vehicles and it's extremely popular now. But guess who's not playing there...the Infantry babies...and all the AF players couldn't be more happy.

Re: "Road to Jalalabad" Discussion

I'm bad compaired to who? You...Him...yea right. Like I give a rats a$$.
I don't have high poist's on Karkand because I don't play it you fool.
I don't like urban maps. That's my prerogative for BF2.
I like open maps where I can fly my chopper because that what I like to do. It's how I have fun because that's why I play games...for fun not for stats.
Come meet me on my server in the air chopper to chopper and we'll see who sucks.

And if your sig is correct, now I see why you're an a$$hat.
Nice to make a new account because you got banned.

Re: "Road to Jalalabad" Discussion

From that google Earth pic, it looks like it will be half or atleast more then half an Urban map with some open fields. This means it will be something like Karkand but maybe with helo's.

Re: "Road to Jalalabad" Discussion

So people who play on Karkand are point whores, but people who fly helicopters are not?

"Let's get real. the ONLY reason Karkand is popular is because it's the easiest map to whore points on. PERIOD. It's been proven."
I would just love to see your reasoning behind that. Who proved it and when, because to be honest I missed the memo.

PS
Your helicopter stats blow anyway, and FYI I have never played CS. Could it be that you choose to be in a vehicle because you know you will die pathetically easy if your not?
