EF not a rant but it is a bit wierd isnt it?

[Chickenhawk]

Did EA get the project details mixed up for EF and AF? The Eurofighter is slow, bit like the A-10 is meant to be, and it's full of tanks, a bit like AF is meant to be.

Wouldnt it have been a bit better to have kept EF as small scale conflicts? Like the Falklands or Bosnia? And left the huge Tank battles to the US? God knows what Armoured Fury will be like, 20 tanks per side?

Also has anyone checked out the wheels on the EuroFighter?? Perhaps that graphics modeller needs to try again?

And the map designers need a word of wisdom, travelling in a tank for 2 minutes just to get into a fight on Taraba is not good gaming. And the 2 choke points on the Wall can really scew up the game.

I like EuroForces as it has some good points but the decisions that led to this final product just seem bizarre.

It definatley feels as if the A-team of developers is now working on something else and left this release to the work experience kids.

Actually there are 3 choke points on Great Wall. It's up to you to find the 3rd and most special one.

I like the travel time on Taraba Quarry. If i wanted small firefights all the time i would play CSS..

I think some of the main problems with a number of the original BF2 maps is that they are too small for having vehicles... The Operaton Smoke Screen and Taraba maps are the correct size for vehicles maps..

Each of the 3 maps is very good in thier own respect.

The Great Wall took a few rounds for me to get used to but I'm loving this map. Scored 149 in one round yesterday, next person on my team was at 74...and I wasn't even commanding.


The other two maps are very good also, love all the tanks and the fact things are spread out a bit.

Even if there is a third choke point i still think it should have more entrances, that map sucks.

I think the Wall would have better with one less tank and one transport chopper.

Although i don't think the map sucks, I agree there should be atleast one more way to get in. What they should have done was incorporate the Grappling Hook into one of the Kits(Engineer since that kit Sucks), but that would have made too much sense. I just Downloaded EF lastnight, soo far so good.

I thought there were 4 choke points. 1 arch and 1 crumbled wall on both the chinese and EU sides. Am I missing something?

Actually thats not a bad idea, i played this map for the first time last night for a total of 2 rounds, both rounds were almost identical, both middle flags was taken and tons of armour sat at the entrance, all engineers, and loads of mines in the entrance.

Boring..

A grappling hook, or some nice secret passages and tunnels.

The Great Wall would truely benefit from having the grapple hooks and possibly even the zip lines. Just another reason why SF should have been added INTO BF2 instead of made a completely different game in itself.

Re: EF not a rant but it is a bit wierd isnt it?

i was playing as engy for the EU on the wall map.
i got a round score of like 115, and got like 53 kills to 8 deaths.
And all i did was lay mines in the first entrance. absolutely no enemy vehicles got past that point, and my squad (i was squadleader) took out anyone who went through on foot. the rest of my team guarded the other entrance (crumbled wall). Even though i was happy about my success, I know it would have sucked to be on the other team. IMO, there should definetely be other entrances into the fort, although i believe grappling hooks would make it too hard to defend.

Engineer since that kit Sucks

engy doesnt suck in EF, especially with that new shotty of the EU. see above paragraph

Yes, you are missing something. There's a false wall somewhere that you can only drive through. :)
