Laguna Presa (Rush) and Arica Harbor (Conquest)

[=MNKY=Frosty]

Just found these on the EA BC2 Forums





Disappointed by the Arica Harbor Conquest map, could have been so amazing...

Yeah, Arica Harbor could have been expanded but I'm not sure how balanced it would have been, seems like the US would have the advantage. Plenty of people chomping at the bit for "infantry only", well now at least they get one map with that mode.

I'm still hoping that they'll release some "classic" maps for the game, or at least ones that aren't so linear but it seems Rush mode is where the map design starts and ends, then they turn them into conquest maps.

Played those tonight... Arica Harbor is lame as **** and Laguna Presa is a great map. The amount of effort in positioning the flags on AH is just amazing. Every flag is simply in the middle of the road. Great effort Dice. :|

So do Server Admins know how to add these since people are finding servers playing them?

Im looking forward to AH conq, I get a new playground with my M95+Dot, Kinda of fed up of Lagun Presa as Conq so playing it as rush will be a nice change.

Ah right I thought the OP posted the actual map view rather than in game shots.

Oooh so maybe that's why I'm running more and more into charging snipers... :P I had to resrot to abusing the shotgun now.

I'm starting to think they don't give a crap about conquest mode. The maps are all incredibly lazy regarding their layouts. They're all just basically three flags spaced out evenly and that's it. No focal points or real important flags. You end up just doing a merry-go-round with them.

Yep. I feel like conquest is a game of trading bases. Rush feels more polished. To me that is.

I think the Rush for Presa is pretty amazing, one of the only Rush maps that actually has flanking options honestly. Really well done...I didn't even know the parts of the map it used were there.
