    Conquest

    I know it's coming soon, but does anyone know if the unused vehicles in the game will be in it?
    Mobile AA, Transport Helos and the big boat.

    Re: Conquest

    There are unused vehicles?

    I think transport choppers would be a nice addition as we have had these in both BF2 and 2142 and I don't think conquest would be the same without them really. I guess it depends on how open the maps are compared to how they are on gold rush when the whole map is open.

      Yep, in the single player campaign.

          Re: Conquest

          Im just hoping they open up the whole of the map at the start instead of doing a "Lock and Key" type of conquest.

              Agreed, conquest always had a "behind the lines" feel when you were tearing around in a transport back-capping all the enemy's points.

              Thats true BF play and i really miss it lol.

                Yeah, please don't add the jets back! I know this is highly unlikely anyway, but just look at BF2: SF, it had not jets, and that was f-ing awesome.

                As for BFBC, we need transport helo's in conquest, that's for sure. Not too worried about the big patrol boat, mobile AA would be interesting, but might cause balance problems with the helicopters.

                  Yea, especially as you can shoot down choppers with just about anything anyways.

                  Its gotta be said tho, downing a chopper with the M95 is a great feeling.

                    Armor in the choppers is bit funky at the moment(IMO). Since you can suicide dive towards manned AA with half of armor, and survive it. But you can be shot down with M-60 in no time. Even if you have full armor...

                    So i think that mobile AA's is a big NO, NO..

                      ...

                      MIGHT cause balance problems? MIGHT?

                      ALL tanks ARE mobile AA (light and heavy) already, and I invoke enough fire from tanks, friendly or not, already. Not to mention, as Stonecold has mentioned, you can shoot it down with any type of far reaching rifle.

                      /rant

                      Who said anything about conquest being lock and key? That was only implemented in Gold Rush for base by base type destruction, to implement focus on one (in this case set of) objective(s) at a time.

                      There was also no mobile AA in the SP campaign..

                      And yes, transport helicopters would be a nice addition (both the Hind and Blackhawk). However, with only 24 people on a server at one time, the vehicles should only allow about 5 people in at a time.

                      I don't see how you could implement the cruiser.

                        Im pretty sure that the helo mission in SP had mobile AA's...

                        I just wonder why they didn't put the golf cart to MP... It isn't the best choise when it comes to attacking, but it would be funny as h3ll..

                          Yeah there was definitely mobile AA in the SP game, StoneCold is right.

                          That would be awesome :laugh: Must admit though, after using the golf buggy once in single player I abandoned it perminently. The AI is unforgiving enough in a tank, in a buggy it was just pure suicide :salute:

                          I wonder if DICE had any plans for DLC besides conquest? I'd love to see some vehicle DLC, for free preferably but we know that won't happen

                          Special Forces mod for Bad Company please DICE :thumbsup::yay:

                            I'd love to see some new maps... Since the current 8 is gonna get old pretty fast...

                            Hopefully we would see somekind of an map what has huge bridge in it. Just like in the helo mission(where you have to take out the tanks rolling on it).

                            Or maybe DICE gives us an Expansion... With few(something like 5 please ) new maps, and some new vehicles(armored gold cart :laugh:)...

                            I could even pay few euros for that, if the content is worth it...

                              Looks like we only have 4 maps for conquest which is a bit of a bummer. Lets hope they're good ones.

                              Hopefully we'll see some patches now that conquest is nearly finished as well.
