    More Maps

    I dunno, but now a days with the amount of maps that come with a game package that is MP is not enough. We need more maps to come with the game, and not 10-20 (do not know how many come with BF2142, then including Tampa Bay with patch), and divide to certain types of gameplay. It is really not enough. Be best for a 100 map package, and if their is a charge for the pack, I wouldn't mind paying for it. How hard is it for the dev's to make a map 50-100 map package, also with more toys (Weapons, gadgets), from just maps alone. It is not like as if they are making a whole new game, and only just maps. This game has potential, but a lot of neglect. Sad, companies do this to games.

    id love to see an addition of new maps and extra weapons,gadgets etc but sadly the lads who made the game seem to be working on other projects leaving this game out in the cold..Again id quite happily spend a few of my £££ for new bits n bobs.

    a few people here have made mods for the game which you may be interested in?... i dont know to much about it but if you ask around someone will point you in the right direction. I steer clear of all the modified content business.

      Yes, I understand the mods. Although, they are not in Ranked servers, also from playing Operation Flashpoint, and then Armed Assualt. It is really complicated when only about 1% of players only have the mod, players have to go search download mod to join server, then maybe problems. Even though it is a drag and drop files. Some stuff have to be edited (Do this, do that) to make mod work.

        In the developer commentaries for Team Fortress 2, the developers said they deliberately put fewer maps of good quality as opposed to more maps that may not be as good. Their reasoning was that multiplayer communities tend to focus only on a few maps, so a large amount of maps would only result in many maps not being played.

        To some extent I think this is quite true. Even in BF2142 there are plenty of maps that go un-played. Shuhia Taiba conquest? Minsc conquest? and so on. It's all camp gib camp gib camp gib, and any titan maps tend to be suez canal.

        Hell even look at the 3 maps NS added that largely go unplayed...

        IMO the best course of action for DICE is to release a map editor and allow user-made maps to be ranked.

          They cant allow user mad maps to be ranked due to they can be made very uneven and can allow cheating to be done.

            like in Severnaya where you would be able to glitch into walls for example or in Bloodgulch where you can get prone on the hill and snipe all the way

              Personally, I don't think more maps makes for a better game necessarily. It is nice to have a large array of maps, but is it worth it? Its like what CannibalBob said.
              Even with the number of maps there currently are for BF2142 most players gravitate towards 2 or 3 at most almost all the time they play.

              I'm absolutely sure that we won't be seeing any more expansions or maps for BF2142. Its too old and far gone. There's new games in the battlefield series coming out soon enough for EA to not worry about BF2142 anymore.

                If you want to play more maps go to CF2142 and join. They have a map pack of about 50 or so maps for the tournamnet to play. They are highly modded maps for their mod.

                  Huh? 100 maps? That is just insane. Not to mention it would be like $150 the way EA charges for booster packs.

                    lol, a 100 maps. I would be happy if they did one. like Ezekiel said no user made map will ever be ranked on kind of balance and cheating..
