    A better Infantry only

    Do you think by any chance in the near or far future EA will make a patch to bring back light vehicles and transports to infantry only mode. By doing so maps like Zetar Wetlands and Kubra Dam would get a lot more love because then people wouldn't have to walk to CP since they are so far away? In Jalalabad you can now actully pick up 2 of your friends in the buggie and zoom right past the sniper field of death and still have infantry only combat. Thus in doing that they will actually avoid nade spamming/claywhorer and make use of kits such as Anti Tank and Engineer' AT mines, getting repair points easier, using C4 for the correct things like blowing up enemy vehicles/assets, AT rockets would actually go for vehicles instead now and there would be more variety of kits on the battlefield and all this while we still have infantry battles. What do you guys think? I mean I don't see any downfall much at all, if they won't do that at least give AT and Engineer new toys to play with.

            But you'd still get the armor and jet whore.
            Everytime I play IO, I must play medic to keep myself alive...
            Everytime I play vehicles, I have to play AT to keep myself alive...
            I feel so limited, it's one reason why I can't wait for Unreal 03.

                I think the odds of another patch of any kind for this game are slim to none.

                  He is talking about having light infantry vehicles only, excluding aircrafts and armored "vehicals". That would be a good idea. Right now IO on maps other than city maps doesn't make any sense.

                    Yea I like that idea myself. Would be nice to have that option on IO boards instead of walking all the time.

                      before IO servers were set up by programming (or whatever other magic they use) i played a few servers where you were forbidden in the rules to use armour etc.

                      result?

                      we'd use armour etc and get kicked!!:laugh:

                      these days i too prefer the non-city maps - they attract less dickheads and options to nade spam are v.limited. (Oman, Kubra Dam & Daqing [sic] get my vote!).

                      but i agree - esp. on Jlallallallalbaaad, with the sniper choke hold (and dix not realising the keys to this map are the lake and fountain, not charging Galipoli style for the outpost :shakehead).

                      light vehicles get my vote, mate.

                        It's also true that all the stats padders, cheaters, hackers, medic/points whores, TKers, retarted admins and all the other scum on the earth can be found on the IO Karkand servers in a lot bigger, I should say dominating quantity, then on the other servers. And yet people are like brainless sheep, they continue to go where everybody else is going and do what everybody else is doing, refusing to think for themselves and to have their own identity. There are a lot better maps out there than Karkand, with more exciting scenery, more graphicaly advanced, more objective challenged, even among the city maps.

                          I don't really get why people are so hostile to this idea, even in another forum. It really doesn't kill infantry only. You will still fight for the flag on the ground as soliders... You can now actually just get to CP faster. You can now avoid stale-mates and nade fest. You can actually use AT and Engi for what it's use for. New maps would be played more. I am also sure that more kits will be running on the field as well.

                            Ya know if you play a vehicle servers the potential of infantry only battles still occurs.. Tanks/APC's can't be everywhere at once and on the large maps there are many flags.

                              ok, so you havn't noticed that my favorite map is kubra with just over 600 hours played. and another 300 trying to get my old [CMx] Kubra Dam YouAll server started.
