Thread: map rotation

give gulf a chance to show itself as one of the greatest maps in BF2... playing with 8 other guys raping each other with planes and gunships doesn't give it any justice... also there needs to be a rule about this base rape when there is below 20 players.. sure its not in the rules but people go beyond of being a total scum bag not playing fair..

also put that blue map towards the end all you need is one mistake and the game is over... way too one sided.

It was an unmitigated disaster. Teams were regularly raped right off the map, and the server always primed longer and later, and with fewer players than it does with Oman.

Does the community have a suggestion for a map to prime with? We need something that's like Oman but not. It needs to be fairly popular amongst the people, with enough toys to keep people occupied with low numbers, with an easy layout that lends itself to play both at low numbers and at a full server.

Zatar has jets/carrier and 2 uncappable bases and central island for the helo. It's not rape-proof but a bit more equal opportunity, as the USMC uav and radar are on the mainland.

Another thing to consider is maybe using an EF map to prime, since those are actually all 32 player maps they scale a bit better to smaller teams anyway... Smoke Screen doesn't have any jets but it has helos...
