Nadespamming on Karkand I/O

[silver_mat]

I really don't get it. Almost every third topic around here contains atleast one or two posts about how karkand I/O isn't anything but nadespamming. It's very uncommon to see the US forced back in spawn. Maybe the first like 5 minutes or so, but eventually US will get a cap somewhere on the map.
For Gods sake just don't run into the middle of it all!!! - Don't know what's going on in the minds of those who does, it's like "hey look, nades! Let's see how long I can survive" meehhh


And for those who ***** about I/O servers only... what is the big frigging deal? Some might say that it ressembles counter-strike. First of all, it's two very different games, and besides if it really did ressemble counter-strike, then hurray! Statistics show that counter-strike is THE most popular multiplayer fps today, so I guess EA is just hoping to make more money, which is great, then they can spend more money on developing new games.
Others might say that I/O atracts statpadders and such. Once again, so frigging what! It's a game, and the main purpose is to be able to sit down and have a good time once in a while. Yeah cheaters and such causes harm, do doubt about that, because they ruin the game for others, but how is that equivalent to having someone running around with his pads out reviewing people constantly. I trully enjoy doing it, once in a while, because it gives a whole new perspective and is actually rather hectic and fun.

My five cents on why I percieve I/O Karkand and Mashtuur as two of the greatest maps in Battlefield 2.

its not so much US nade spamming at their uncap continuously through the whole round, its a 64 sized map and people are nade spamming constantly EVERYWHERE against EVERYONE on any part of the map, i just got off a sad lil nade fast on a 64 size kark, cannot count the number of times i turn a corner and someone else does only to have them chuck a nade then go hiding around the corner, and i cannot count how many times i ran after them and killed them while they get ready to bunny hop another few nades, the really noticeable nade (whores) had very bad kdr's and low scores, i figure to them it's easier than using a gun because they suck to much for that so they go for randon nade kills.

Karkand I/O is a very different game play then say flying on Kubra or playing a night map etc. To me Kark I/O rounds are sheer chaos with a lot of fun firefights and yes the typical nade spamming. For me, its not the most intelligent round of play or the most strategic but it can be good fun to do once in a while.

Re: Nadespamming on Karkand I/O

ok i think you have some misconceptions as to what exactly stat padding is, but thats beside the point......ive been playing IO karkand lately, and i seem to be the only one creating a squad, and sneaking off to back bases at the start of the round.....everyone else just sticks between hotel and USMC uncap throwing grenades.....and thats fine with me, before they realise it, ive taken just about everything across the river....

last night i was playing karkand, with vehicles....and again, i was the only person in my squad, at the start of the round, i went to cement, turned the flag white, and headed over to factory and i went to cap the flag....NO ONE joined my squad yet, commander was placing UAV/arty over hotel...i ended up taking factory, grabbed the tank, and started taking warehouse....

finally someone joins my squad ans spawns on me....we kept taking factory,gatehouse, warehouse, and cement factory, over and over and over again....the entire USMC was between hotel and USMC uncap the whole round, and commander was denying me UAV, and artillery, and placing them between hotel/USMC uncap....NO ONE was spawning in the back bases and defending them...it was sad.....i left

i guess it depends on the server....i notice if it isnt a 24/7 karkand server, everyone squads up......USMC immediately heads for the back bases creeping around the sides, and the MEC is usually there waiting for them.....nade spam is at a minimum, and its fun.....24/7 karkand servers, both vehicles, and IO are all about the nade spam, and the battle is usually between USMC uncap, and hotel THE WHOLE ROUND!! lol

Re: Nadespamming on Karkand I/O

I nade spam on any map whenever possible.

Re: Nadespamming on Karkand I/O

And again: It depends on the server and the ppl that are on it. I played some great squad/teamwork rounds on Karkand IO.

Nadespammers? I got used to them - just turn the flag neutral go out the flag radius and shoot the little s*ckers that come to nadespam the flag area.
Then go back and cap the flag completely...

Yup, I play mostly sniper, whenever I'm in a position where I can effectively take out a group of guys I will nade spam the area like there's no tomorrow.

Re: Nadespamming on Karkand I/O

I may not get the highest points in the game, or many kills, always less deaths, but I do get most flag capture points. Usually about 5 a round, from square to gatehouse are all mine!

This is when I play as USMC.
