    My Euro Force Pro's and Con's

    I dont think I will get alot of reply's to this post but here are my pros and cons of BF2 EF.


    __________________________________________

    Pros:

    1. The Maps, yes, all of the maps are B E A utifull. Smoke screen and the great wall are just awesome. The Quarry is on the up side as well.

    2. the new weapons. I know that after downloading the weapons demo every thought that Euro would pwn all but, EA pulled it off and made them balanced and made the sounds even better. Especially the Benelli M4.

    3: Euro Copter. I love the look and also both sides have the high explosive rounds.

    4: It's combined with BF2. You don’t have do switch between 2 game and start up 2 games to play different maps.

    5. Unlike SF, It works with 64 players. By works I mean it doesn’t cram so many people in such a small place.

    Cons:


    1. The Challenger, I don’t know if it's just me or what but, does the turret move a little slow, people like myself that have gaming mouse’s may say "turn you sensitivity up" but, that don’t work for me. Also its camo they could have given it better camo because it’s just boring to look at. The Main thing wrong with it. YOU CANNOT TELL WHAT DIRECTION YOU’RE FACING BECAUSE YOU CAN’T SEE THE FRONT OR BACKSIDE WITHOUT SWITCHING VIEWS!!!.

    2. The "DAMN" Euro fighter. So many things are wrong with this thing that I have to number the problems. 1. You have to be extremely careful when taking off cuz if your not, you will lose more than half health by scraping you engines on the runway! 2. The Handling is just pathetic. It's slower than the F-15 imho. 3. Its bombs. Why are the bombs so far apart?!?, I mean you can’t kill jack crap with these bombs. I myself and kill a full tank in two bomb runs with any other fighter. 4. Is it's name Why is it so long? They could have made it (EF) or (ETF). Your probably still asking why is it so long? I know the answer. It sucks so much that if you actually kill some with it, you deserve the recognition. 5. Is it me or can you not shoot it down with another jet? Even without flares I still couldn’t hit this thing that was basically right in front of me.
    __________________________________________________ _______________

    Over all I think it is a game that’s on the upside, I give 3.9/5 stars.
    (don’t ask why the .9)

    Keep in mind this is not just my opinion. I have asked around 15020 EF owners these questions Most are with most questions.
    (I hope you guys do to)

    A reasonable review, except the Challenger and Eurofighter.
    When driving the Challenger, use the little turret rotation icon on the bottom middle of the screen and you can tell in a millisecond or two how you're orientated. No big deal.

    Eurofighter:
    1. I've never had a single problem taking off.
    2. It's slow, but out turns the Mig 29.
    3.The bombs are fine, you just need to release them a little higher and preferably at a steeper AOA than the other jets.
    4. I've not had any problems killing stuff (see #3.), in fact went 27-0 on a 64 player server last night.
    5. Regarding the problem with being unable to hit the EF even though it's level and in front. This has happened to me and I don't know if it's a feature or a bug. It's also a common occurence in F35B vs J10 fights. The EF is slower than the Mig, so I switch to the ground HUD, get *really* close in to the EF, then let loose with cannons and this works well.

      The best thing about EF for me is the voice acting. Those soft German accents are hilarious in a military context. Just think of the three little pigs from 'Shrek' and you're there.

      "Ze enemy iz in kontrol, you muzt fight hahdah!" Gets me every time. :)

      PS - now offence is intended to any German readers, I'm an Englishman and I think the SAS accent in SF is just as stupid.

        Does anyone else find the "If you leave the battle area, you vill be shot!" a little disconcerting? It's a European army, not the Waffen SS...

              first, in RL, if you desert any army (even the US army) on a the frontline, you may well be shot. it's common to every nation.

              2. Eurofighter doesn't suck. It OUT TURNS the J10 BY FAR.

                my only whining is that both the leopard 2 and challenger 2 models look like sh*t when compared to the beautiful T-90 model.

                why does the T90 look so good anyway relative to the rest?

                  You haven't dissapointed me - you've just disagreed with me, which I don't mind at all. I still think they are soft German-like accents, and I still find them funny.

                    Re: My Euro Force Pro's and Con's

                    The one problem I am having with Taraba, is that I was on the EF team and stole the enemy SU35. Flying over my base to reload, all of my team in base where identified as enemy. This is like the red/blue bug, but it was only for the players in our main base, the other bases where fine.

                    I played on both sides, stealing each sides plane and it only happened when I stole the SU35.

                    Also, I noticed that if any of my team just left their vehicle, I would get an enemy target at first. This happened on both sides but it I seen this happen most on the EF team while flying the enemy SU35.

                      It's both German and French accents ingame. I think medics are French. The accent is somehow similar to all those kiddy commanders that use voip

                        Yeah, this bit is supposed to happen. Someone on here showed us all an section of the server config or something that showed there was a setting to control how long a vehicle that has just been left by your team appears as an enemy.

                          Whenever I hear "enemy sniper spotted", I think of a gay Arnold Schwarzenagger. Ewww, enemy sniper spotted. I think the voice acting is so bad that it's good.

                            I dont know specifically what language they are meant to be but they are hilariously bad, the only thing that could top it would be the soldiers idle anims to be a John Cleese impression. There take on what Brits sound like in SF was very WW2 film. Perhaps we should club together and buy Dice a little tour of europe.

                              Rogue845, you may not like the voice acting for the SAS in SF but at least they don't sound like gay emo soldiers. I swear it's so bad, I stopped playing Euro on all three maps. Oh and another thing, I think the SAS sound really cool, they sound like the generals in the first star wars movie, sometimes I'm waiting for the commander to announce Lord Vader's arrival lol...
