    EA Community Update - 5/1/06

    A community update has been posted over at the official Battlefield 2 site about Armored Fury and the 1.3 patch.
    <blockquote>Attention Soldiers!

    Later today we will announce the Battlefield 2: Armored Fury™ booster pack for Battlefield 2™ which brings all-out mechanized battles to US soil for the first time. Maps set in the US have been requested by the community for quite some time, and we are pleased to deliver three that set the stage for huge armored warfare battles.

    3 NEW MAPS

    * Operation Midnight Sun: The conflict spreads near the Pacific Ocean in a key battle for the Alaskan port of Valdez, where Chinese forces are attempting to secure much-needed fuel from the pipeline.
    * Operation Harvest: The MEC army begins their march East towards the U.S. Capital, and American forces must stall the advance long enough for reinforcements to arrive.
    * Operation Road Rage: The MEC forces have infiltrated deep into the USA, and are using the highways to move quickly towards key industrial sites that are dangerously near civilian areas.

    To balance the wide-open tank battles with aerial firepower, six new vehicles will be introduced, including 3 scout helos such as the MD 530, Little Bird, and 3 ground attack aircraft like the A10 Warthog.

    In addition, patch 1.3 is on the way, and with it comes single player co-op support, so you can grab a friend and tackle the bots as a team. More details to follow, so stay frosty!</blockquote>

              Meh.. I dunno. Some things just seem off to me. I like the storyline of the US being invaded, but that's about it. Look at the A-10. Why does it have exhaust flames? That's just really poor right there.

              Also - "Operation Road Rage" ... can anyone say "Road of Destruction" :p Only thing is, ours looks 10x better

                  The maps look really good and well detailed. The idea of the U.S. attack should've been stretched out a lot more. Three maps?! C'mon!

                  If U.S.A. is under attack. Shouldn't it be the Coast Guard defending the country, and not USMC?!

                            LIGHTNING SWEET!

                            To bad US Intervention had a rain and snow effect but those aren't implanted yet ... ;-)

                            And a gray A-10 in a woodland setting? Hmm, still wouldn't mind flying and A-10 over some High Rises.
