But, no, it felt much slower, compared to some of the "larger" maps in BF3, like Gulf of Oman.

Maps are actually larger in BF3 than all other games, BF3 vehicles just move faster.

I'm pretty sure they are including the grey area that aircraft can fly in but no infantry can venture into. Plus, the size of the map is kind of a moot point when you stick all of the flags right next to each other.

come on dude, you know damn well its bs. The maps might be bigger, but the flags are all clustered in the same area, making the actual playable area of the largest bf3 maps smaller than the average bf2 or 2142 maps

I wish we had maps such as fushe pass, daquin oilfield, operation cleansweep or kubra dam... those were big maps

It should be noted that if we compare HC to Vanilla stats of the server as part of the decision to go HC or Vanilla, the camparison will be skewed because when the server ran HC it only had round per map. Tonight close to 15 people left when a second round of Karkand started. I think a lot of people in general do not like to play two rounds on the same map especially when the server polulation is low and the rounds take a long time.

BF2 is a different game.

Two rounds work well in BF2, but suck in BF3 (except in Rush). I would vote to ditch the two rounds except for Rush and assault maps (and even those I could do without). Keep the rotation moving, and cut the losses of two rounds of Metro in half.

Please keep 2 rounds for RUSH; 1 round RUSH map would be STOOPID'
