looks like medium detial lightmas, take it this is just for the beta and fianl will have final lightmaps?

been reported already but every MEC lightjeep i saw on this map, apart from the vehicle dropped one was a PLA light jeep, easy to fix, just to a find and replace in the editors gpo.con.

This road dose not match the "ghost road" on the ground, and dose not connect to the main road, instead it goes off into this grass patch and stopps...

Re: New Content Update

It's all lose lose with you guys.
You want an update, you get one.
You moan about the quality of the update, despise the amount of man hours and effort DICE went to, to get this out and this is only a beta.

'They release a map when the game isn't finished? lolz!'
If you go back to the original BF2, that had no patches. And immediately after play fully patched, you notice one hell of a difference in gameplay, what you can and can't do.

BF2 still has close to a million active players, this showing the game is still very popular and playable. That's all it needs to be, playable.

You say DICE don't listen to you? I don't blame them... you convinced them to patch over people being able to jump and shoot at the same time. All that was needed was a delay in between your jumps, half a second. If that. It would have completely obliterated the use of bunny hopping.

I congratulate DICE on all they've done to this game.
Whatever they decide to do with it, patch it, or not. I'll still play it and the mods it un-earths and still be in full support of them.

Exactly what i've just said ina couple of servers where everyone was moaning......

Re: Battlefield 2 Content Update

This map feels like the lovechild of Zatar Wetlands/EJOD Desert, but in a good way.

Guys, it is a BETA and they are still going to perfect it, so it's as nice as the other ranked maps.

This map screams be an Engineer at me. Not my kind of map though, in all honesty. I prefer heavily built up City areas, but this is a good effort.

BTW, who is The Haggster? Because he should be arrested for defacing a Gas Station.

I noticed the sun flare was off too, and it seems the MEC guys are using Intel computers, Nice to see they're with the times and getting off Windows 95.

But, it's a 7/10 for me.

Nice to see DICE still posting here. BUT, please look at CTD logs too, DON'T forget them


Oh, and the big "wish list" from the EA UK forum :)

Happy map testing!

Re: Battlefield 2 Content Update

I have just played this map, and i have to say its completely different from other BF2 maps in the fact its very open (its a desert) so we will need to learn to travel in convoys to avoid being bombed.

It is a huuuuugggeeee map but it is very good and it is nice to know that DICE still cares.

By huge, i mean it took me at least 10 mins to travel by tank from MEC airfield to the USMC airfield

lol owned?


well its a nice map and I'll say Thank you to EA Dice for putting it out.

And since I can't get into their forums i've posted here on what my ideas where.

Again they are:

***Put in two attack choppers like Dalian plant since its a very big map.
***Lighten the fog base a little since its very hard to see.
***Widen the radius for flag zones since it appears its only 10meters and with most there is nothing to hide around or in if your infantry.
***Add one more Jet to each side to give being in the air a bit more fun for all instead of people fighting over them, in one server I saw people over and over again TKing for a jet and it shouldn't be that way.
***Needs more boats which would give more to a "water battle" since there is alot of water on this map which is useful to get from one flag to another.
***APC's maybe???

Re: Battlefield 2 Content Update

Im shocked.

Listen, guys at DICE. Since its obiously "pay first, give maybe later" for you, how about a business proposal. I run a small kiosk at a bus stop, and I need some good advertising. How about I dish you 10 bucks and you release a map with my kiosk in it?

[/sarcasm]

Free maps are always greeted. Too bad you guys need a hundred dollar bill to actually satisfy your fanbase. What happened to the enthusiasm?

Cant help but feel that its a gesture a´la "Oh here, BF2 community, take this bone."

Well, I do feel bonered, thats for sure.

Re: Battlefield 2 Content Update

Thanks to Intel. I wonder how much money they forked over to get the Dice guys to dig up the BF2 editor and throw this together.

Really though, it's nice to have a new official map and good to see that they're still doing something for us. Now, how much will I have to pay to get some community-made maps ranked?

Re: Battlefield 2 Content Update

I like the map, played it for a bit had some fun. It so needs the Tiger from EF and the Little Bird and A10 from AF. Throw us a bone here, we only have about 2-3 maps with each!

One thing about this map, major lighting issues.

hehe, you must be new to BF2, get used to it, its all that ever happens on any unadmined server that has airpower. if they cant tk you for the jet they will run out in front of it to force a tk. its a common and pretty much regular game play with most bf2 players.

they arent gonna give away booster content for a map pack, no way. id love to see the a10 and little bird on more than 3 maps but it just isnt gonna happen unless the boosters become freebies.

LexLuther said ingame that there will be NO attack choppers.
