Its been so long...did BF:1942 have something like a UAV or radar? I don't believe so.

Scanner and UAV in BF2 pretty much makes a sniper's position moot with a half-way competent commander.

As said above, in BF2 we have a UAV and a commander, this will help finding those snipers.

And, you can't compare sniping in BF1942 with sniping in BF1942 , sniping in BF1942 was so easy that you could make 40 one shot kills in ten min.

In BF1942 on wake island, I almost always sniped aside the bunker on the seasite at the Island airbase, there you had a nice overview of the most crowded place on the map, and if they wanted to kill you they had to cross a large open area, but the snipers in BF2 aren't that acurate anymore, you can't make 10 headshots in a row on 2 min anymore with those things

In BF1942 (for those who didn't play the game) , when starting to aim, you scope would move for 2sec or something and then it came steady, once steady, it had 100% acuracy, no deviation or something

Re: Wake Island 2007

You mean:

LCAC: The Landing Craft, Air Cushion Transport weapons systems, equipment, cargo and personnel of the assault elements of the Marine Air/Ground Task Force both from ship to shore and across the beach. The landing craft air cushion (LCAC) is a high-speed, over-the-beach fully amphibious landing craft capable of carrying a 60-75 ton payload. Capable of operating from existing and planned well deck ships, it is used to transport weapons systems, equipment, cargo and personnel from ship to shore and across the beach.

what mod is that from?

Stock battlefield2

But EA dropped it, along with "supplylines", and the 100 player feature.

Re: Wake Island 2007

It was a great map for BF42, but I think choppers are really going to dominate it in BF2.

And, it would be nice if they could have made the "arms" of the island a little wider.

It should be fun.

But its too bad we dont get a new map. Like when they brought out the "Phillipines" map for BF42.

Not a mod, but it was removed prior to release by EA/DICE. According to them they had it all skinned and ready to go but it didn't "fit" with any of the maps they were releasing.

I disagree. The USMC will have the aircraft carrier, which if its like Dalian Plant, means they have two JSF-35's and the Chinese will have two J-10's at their airbase.

Since land vehicles are constrained to narrow paths because of the shape of the map it will be a "plane map" just like Operation Clean Sweep.

Re: Wake Island 2007

-EoS- plays it on their ranked server. Some other's do as well. (not sure if they are ranked though) Just did a BF2AL search and found these guy's playing it now. 70.182.176.218 Great map ranked/unranked!

That's not the Wake Island 2007 map. That is a custom map that you'll find in TotalBF2 mappack on the site.

Honestly the map is way too small. Yeah the island was narrow, but not 3 lanes wide!!!
