    The flip side of EAs "30 dollars = BF2 advantage" marketing tactic

    I had no idea this would happen when SF came out, however, it's possible that this could actually cause less copies of special forces to be sold. Why? Because all of the gadgets (or most) are now avaible in vanilla BF2. Sure, it's easier to obtain with SF, but still.

        hahaha NOT. Nice try though.

        I didn't say EVERYTHING in SF was now attainable. I said gadgets were now more attainable giving people LESS reason to buy the expansion pack. Not no reason what so ever.

            LOL the new maps OWN the old ones...But I get what your saying...the only Problem is Vanilla BF2 owners don't get to SPAWN with the BF2:SF weapons...that means BF2:SF are at an advantage. Its like crack...once BF2 Vanilla get to play with the F2000 they will run out to buy the BF2:SF.

                Entice people to buy it as they can pick up the guns, but can't get them all the time.

                      Im sticking with 1.03 verson. This SF pack to me is just as good as a mod. Also i got better games to buy.

                          Here's the deal, there is no advantage with the new guns. There is a chart that clearly shows that (dont have link but its around this forum or the SF one)

                          Some might say the bangs are...ok a slight one MAYBE because if the bang was a grenade you would be dead.

                              The F2000 is the ****. Having FBs and a spud launcher, the ultimate base raping weapon.
