The top players in this game for rank play almost exclusively on one map... Strike at Karkland.
Don't get me wrong... I love the map. It really highlights the good infantry street fighting that can take place in this game. However it is a joke that people can whore out the vehicles and literally gain 100 points every 20 minutes.
Anti-tank and engineer are the only defenses and they are so poorly implemented in BF2 that the vehicle whores are having field days on this map. Even worse when they mutiny a commander and then jump in the last second as commander and get 2x points.
Even without the vehicle problem... Strike at Karkland is so fast paced that you can rack up points extremely fast because the rounds are over so fast. Larger maps... the kills are few and far between and the only real point gaining is via flag caps.. unless you are a pilot... then the map is your free kill point zone.
Blah. I will be playing on Karkland as infantry because it is a fun map... and because I actually make some progress in the rank category. Instead of getting 30-50 points for 2 hours of work on a large map... I can get 30 points on Karkland every 20 minutes.
