Re: Tampa Map - your thoughts

THANK YOU:salute:

open C:\ProgramFiles\EAGAMES\Battlefield2\mods\bf2\Leve ls\Highway_Tampa\Info

and see if the .desc file name is the same as the name of the map, if not, rename and try again, I heard this causes maps not to appear on the list but I duno how it happens

Re: Tampa Map - your thoughts

I will personally endure any advertising on Billboards should it mean that BF2 will get more official maps.

However, I would prefer that DICE do themselves a favor, and start becoming chummy with the mod community. These are people who have perfected the art of map making through trial and error, playtesting, more playtesting and even more playtesting. Their input could hardly hurt.

Another suggestion would be to finally cave in and make a PLA vs MEC Infantry Based Map (8 transports, 1 tank each side, no attack helicopters, no jets), a PLA vs MEC small vehicle map (12 transports, 2 Tanks each side, 1 APC each side, 1 Attack Helicopter each side), and a PLA vs MEC jet based map (12 transports, 2 tanks each side, 1 APC each side, 1 Mobile AA each side, 1 attack helicopter each side, 1 Bomber Jet each side, 1 Fighter Jet each side).

Well put lad! I think that EA should be looking through these forums! For stuff like this!

Re: Tampa Map - your thoughts

I was expecting a nice balanced map, a lush map with greenery, but instead I get a vehicle whore fest with an utterly boring desert landscape.

Re: Tampa Map - your thoughts

A huge map like that without attack helicopters just doesn't look like BF2.

PS: I'm imagining here how would an I/O 64 of this Tampa thing would be... ROFL's.

I've been checking IO, haven't seen one running Highway Tampa yet.

:dead:

Edit - About that sun glare, it's kinda' weird. I really noticed it's weirdness in the jet. It was like the sun was shining up from the ground...that's my only complaint thus far.

Re: Tampa Map - your thoughts

needs more armour, maybe some bunkers for cover too? no to helos, they would just rape everybody, not a bad map imo, good to see that bf2 hasnt been left to quietly slip away, even tho the map has some blatant advertising! :p

Re: Tampa Map - your thoughts

Played few rounds on this map, it's great!!
One big issue tho - sun glare. And PLEASE, no attack choppers - it's great armor map.
peace!

It's more desert then urban, that's for sure. Good luck on getting it fixed.

P.S. After downloading the map, did you run the .exe to install it?

Re: Tampa Map - your thoughts

This map is an AT player’s paradise. :yay:

ill be watching you :evil:
you wont even see me coming ... my tank will slowly raise up from sand and you will be thinking WTF... and BOOM to late for you

Re: Tampa Map - your thoughts

After 3 rounds it wore off quick for me. It feels like a bland/boring version of Operation Smoke Screen. I know they didn't model it off of that, but they could have easily looked at the sucess (or lack there of) of OSS and have gone with something else. I'll accept any new map, but please keep them coming, eventually they'll make another good one. :dead:

Re: Tampa Map - your thoughts

Lame. To spread out, and to much armor.

Re: Tampa Map - your thoughts

What map mate ?
Have I missed something :cry:

There's a new map out.


I love the map, actually I love all BF2 maps, I just enjoy some more then others.

The Air combat is wicked, tank battles intense!

If only...there were attack choppers *snif*
