A better Infantry only

[Redink]

Do you think if EA had the brains to think of putting in transport vehicles only to begin with, then maybe the other kits besides medic and sniper would get more love? Perhaps the AT mines can be of use again and there would be more varieties of soldiers running around on the battlefield instead of BattleMedicField2! There could even be better map rotations then just Karkand/karkand. Maps like Shanghoua and Dalian Plant would be play more and still have the Big Map Flavour; at the same time not worrying about Jet whores or Tank whores. Just a thought. What do you guys think?
I never did find the transport a pain in the arse to kill.

Re: A better Infantry only

It have been discussed already, but it is still a great idea. But, oh well, I don't think EA really cares

Re: A better Infantry only

I normally play as AT or Engy on IO, at least when I am not assault. I know of a few servers that already run Songhua, and a few other "rare" IO maps, and they are fine without transports....

I think if IO is to exist, there cannot be any vehicles at all, or it defeats the purpose of it being IO. I know that many of you will disagree with me, but since IO is here to stay, it might as well be actual IO, with no vehicles at all. I personally prefer a good vehicle server, but sometimes I like going IO, and its better with no transports, as long as the server is good, and not full of stat obsessed losers. I play on one IO server, if that one is full, I have one other I use, if both full, I go to a vehicles server, because the rest of the IO ones are pretty much junk :)

BTW, I accidently played with two people from the forums the other day, Vesuvan, and ackack. Had a good time, hope to see you guys around again sometime :)

FFS, we don't like the planes so they ran to Karkand, then they didn't like the tanks so they cried to EA.

EA removed them (no balls EA) and now they want it changed again.

Not that EA care now, but if they did I would beg them not to listen at all to any IO fans :p

Yes, I remembered seeing your name and thinking "hey, that guy is from TotalBF2." Good playing with you man, and it's good to see people who enjoy IO for it's tactical gameplay rather than bashing it all the time.

They care, but the listen to the wrong people (often the minority of players, or the most whining). That's what's wrong.

this probably wouldnt be too bad, although it sort of defeats the IO idea
and helos could still be included then, like on 64 man maps where the carrier is present, just replace all the attack modes of vehicles with blackhawks, or the teams equivilent transport chopper

Re: A better Infantry only

It would still be IO in a way because we're only using transport to get us to destination faster and at the same time giving the other kits thier proper equiptment to be used again. I wonder what they were thinking when they decided to make IO. Did they think it was okay to still give us AT mines to use in IO? Why didn't they at least replace those useless AT mines with at least a new gadget for engies to use. Tazers would be cool.

Re: A better Infantry only

imagine what would happen if what you said happened

TPM-GinGerNiNja [HUMVEE] no0b

no0b: "z0mg3r!!!111! you transport no0b!"


EDIT::: though a vehicle light version would have made more sense then IO

[markan dorka]

Re: A better Infantry only

that'd really just make transport take armors place, and if it's hard to get ppl to play AT now, it'd be double that hard with half the targets

I'm not saying that it wouldn't be a good mode, but it wouldn't be infantry only at all

They care, but the listen to the wrong people (often the minority of players, or the most whining). That's what's wrong.

"wrong" is pretty much subjective

and vast majority of players don't hang around forums arguing about what to change - changes could actually be what majority wants, but we'd never know it

Re: A better Infantry only

Io would be better with vehicles

Re: A better Infantry only

It's called fast attack. TWL has a ladder for it, I'm not sure about any other leagues.
