    I'm really trying to refrain from insulting you, but you're an idiot. You're basing your opinions on something that you are choosing to do (playing on large servers), you're not even trying the other side of it (playing on smaller servers). The game isn't meant to house more than 32 players on a map. Even then, that's a little much.
    OK 1. I DO PLAY LOW PLAYER SERVERS BOTH NORMAL & HC around 20 players. my preferance keeps switching though and often smaller good servers are hard to find, it seems most have BS admins which kick for crap.


    Why don't you do us all a favor and get out of your BF2142, 64 players, and huge maps mindset and play the game how it was intended to be played.
    OK im going to put it this way, I wish IW would stop treating PC like a cheap *** port of a console genre. All they had to do was include one map which played well like some of the stock maps,

    EG. street, the one with the market, the other one with the park/square with the sadam statue in it with the ally the zombies guys like to camp up.

    They play really nicely with 50 players, Im just disappointed that they couldn't include one map specifically designed for more then 16 players. If creek was that attempt then its only half worked since they dindt balance it.

    ALSO for the record, I only think that crapentown oh sorry chinatown is a little nade fest,

    Broadcast plays well <how does 64 affect this?
    Creek is not spammy at all but is unblanaced < how does 64 affect this?
    killhouse < shipment, not expected to be good although you would think bullets wouldnt pass through friggin metal beams.
    chinatown <the only map I have issue with, played S&D on it, 30 player, it played well, because ff was on and people didnt nade the crap out of it. <again 64 no correlation apart from there being 2x nades

    Its mostly the mentality of players on the servers that piss me off tbh



    enjoy

      You must not be taking the small amount of time to find a good server then. I have played on plenty of servers in the past several weeks, and there was only one server that I did not like the rules of (disallowing assets that are built into the game).

      Are you saying that you wished that IW included a new map (of the four) that played as good as some of the maps that came out with the game?

      I find all the new maps to be very fun with the right amount of people. It's hectic at some times and quiet at others, I find that very fun.

      It would be very useful if you could refer to and remember maps by their name, it's not such a hard thing to do TBQH. Because I have no idea what you are talking about.

      If the new maps play nice with 50 players, then why did you spend so much time typing that post?

      Have you played it with 20 or less players? I really doubt it. I have played that map enough times to know and assure you that it must be either your experiences with that map or you are lying through your teeth and are still on your 50 man server.

      64 > 20. 64x2 nades (default frag/special) per player means 128 grenades. 20 x 2 nades (default) means 40 grenades. It is your choice to play on servers that big, don't ***** about something that is an effect of your choice.

      I find it very balanced and easy to get from one side to the other in games such as TDM. So long as you're not persistently running at the enemy head-on like a headless chicken, it shouldn't be so difficult.

      How thick are those metal beams? Do you expect a bullet to pass through them in reality? I'd hope not.

      You're contradicting yourself.

      If that's what mostly bothers you, then why the **** are you complaining about grenades being spammed? There are plenty of servers where players' behaviors are "monitored". Surely it doesn't but a few minutes to find a server like that.
      __________________

      While I was reading through that post from you, all that was on my mind was your self-contradiction. You complained about grenades, then said that wasn't what really bothered you, then said that the amount of players has nothing to do with the number of projectiles, then said that it did. Make up your mind.

      My thoughts in this post are pretty scattered due to your post being the same way, if not worse.

          Can we please not turn this into a flame war between two people. Im rather enjoying reading the actual opinions on the MAPS

            Re: Whats your opinion on the new maps?

            I know this thread hasn't been touched in a while, but I thought I'd add my 2 cents.

            The new maps are fun, although I haven't put too much time into any single one. Chinatown, while it reminds me of Carentan, seems a bit too dark for my taste. Creek is fun, but I think I would have appreciated it more had I still been the sneaky kind of sniper. Killhouse... Well, that's it's own story. I created a kit named "Killhouse" (RPD + Double Tap, Deep Impact, 3x Frag) and joined a HC server just for kicks... You can guess how much fun it was.
            It's like shipment to me. It's fun for a round or two, just spraying through walls and spawn killing, but I've yet to understand how people can enjoy spawn killing/wall spamming for rounds on end. You're not even challenging yourself, all you have to do is spray through the wooden walls/doors.

            All in all, I'm glad I didn't have to pay for the maps - because I personally don't appreciate them as much as the original maps.

              I actually rather like killhouse, there is just something rather novelty about it.

                        The new maps have all of a sudden gotten really repetitive and boring. The old maps like Strike and Showdown are better.

                        btw, i was playing SP again why didnt we get red dot scopes like the ones in SP and an automatic G3?

                            One can only guess why IW chose the attachments they did (ie. red dot instead of aimpoint from SP), but there are model limits in MP so they couldn't have them all. There is a mod out there, however, for MP that changes some of the attachments to replace current ones from the ones in SP.

                            As for the G3, it's probably the old "balance" argument. The G3 is a great gun, and making it auto could've made it overpowered on pub servers. Again, some people have modded their servers to allow it.

                              Cheek is very open and one sided. Whoever gets that one house that people can get onto and snip from, that side usually wins. It is a pain to just run and gun on that map, but just sniping is fine on it.

                              Chinatown is pretty good and it is not like anyother map that COD4 has. I don't have any problems with chinatown.

                              Killhouse is the worst map in the set. It is basely shipment, but bigger. It is a nade/LM/Grenade Launder fest there all of the time. No one ever goes in the middle of the map, just on the sides and mainly alot of people with deep impact on just shoot through any walls to kill with not really having to aim. Sniping on it is god awful and the only weapons that are even good on the map are the M4, any of the LMs, M16, and some etc.

                                Creek has had some problems with spawn points, but for SD I've really enjoyed it.
                                Chinatown...I haven't gotten to play much on it, but when I was running around on it just to check it out, I had a fun time comparing it to good 'ol 'Tan. Not to mention like thirty TVs I got to shoot at. :P
                                Killhouse: fun for a round or two.
