Your ideas have not fallen on deaf ears lads, EA etc. is well aware of the popularity of the IF only MAPS (currently a ROE violation) and many other community hopes. These are very creative and caring people...give them a little more time;)

only infantry???
come on, then having different kits would be meaningless. Everybody will be assault+noob+tuber+flasher...
and nobody will teamplay, everybody will be crawling to make or steal kills.

Anyone against a no vehicles map or two is a vehicle whore that needs a crutch because they cant aim a gun for shit and get owned outside their armoured womb. 

 
   Its not like you have to play on the maps.  Go whore your spawns on karkand in an APC or rape the carrier on wake. 

   Grunting is the bread and butter of this game.  One or two maps isnt going to ruin your lives for fuck sakes.

Its not called "Plane Fighting" or "heli fighting" either is it? Retarded thing to say. Why dont you all get over it, 2 maps aimed at a massive proportion of the community isnt going to harm you is it? You might even like them.

100% in agreement with OP,
an infantry only map would become the most popular map immediatly upon release and would be the most popular map by a wide margin, it would make krikwood look like fushy pass

opposing the idea by saying this game is about vehicles makes as much sense as demanding that every map have jets etc.

however barring an infantry only map, a map with only jeeps and transport choppers would be awesome too or how about a map where the mojority of the map is inaccessible to armor, much like great wall if they closed the paths into the citidel

Why don't they just give us a Berlin remake like they did with Wake? Or maybe a map set in Bejing, US vs. China (AK-47 in close combat... Mmmmmm).

I disagree with the person who posted about no body using team play on an infantry only map, the way I see it I think you would see EVERY kit used extensively except perhaps AT and Engineers. I think I would play engineer or AT just to use shotguns in CQC.

The other map I would like to see (from what I have heard from friends, only got to play BF 1942 once) is the Coral Sea map.
Whoa... Can't believe these forums are still kicking.

ya 2 infantry only maps would be real cool. it would be alot more intense to play. but if you're looking for some infantry battles right now then SF is the way to go. Iron Gator (if your comp can handle it) is real fun to play once a the MEC take a flag. and Warlord is by far the best BF2 map ever. owns Karkand any day. armor can only cap 3 flags on that map. the rest they got to come out of their armor. and when they do thats when all the bitching starts and all the accusations of hax start cause alot of people cant aim with a rifle. so sad yet so true.

I wouldn't mine one or two maps that are strictly infantry only,I mean if you don't like infantry then you can play the other maps.

I agree it would be a refreshing change. It would level the playing field a bit. Lately I've been playing medic and I always come across a tank that's distracted so I just spot and hide or run. I wish I get this encounter more when I am spec ops but I don't.

It would also be nice if there was a map with only transport vehicles because I love to ride around in the buggy. But I always get bombed left and right or get torn to shreds by armor. If only they added nitrous oxide so I could have that extra boosts to make a quick get away.

What a crap mentality .

People dont like something so the ones that do cant have it. An infantry map wont affect a whore in the slightest they dont have to play them.

I don't think an infantry-only map would eclipse Karkand, but I do think it would be a fun change of pace. I don't see why some people are so opposed to this. If you don't want to play on that map you don't have to.

not because they are fags or beeing idiotic.
If there are bugs then WHY hasn't EA/DICE fixed them yet? They must not be bugs!

Secondly, do those of you who nearly have a stroke at the thought of not having armor or aircraft in a map citing how this is "Battlefield" 2 and not "Infantry" 2 honestly think that in the history of modern warfare, hell even if you only take the US into account, there has never been a battle against two PLATOON sized forces without some sort of armor or aerial support?

How would it break the ROE?  If the map did not have any vehicles on it, then the admin could not stop you from using them.  The ROE states that the admin could not make rules like no tanks.  It does not say that EA/DICE could not make a map with out vehicles.

Red Orchestra.  Here is a video: http://storefront.steampowered.com/vide … railer.wmv , and here is a quote from their site:

Red Orchestra lets players choose from 28 infantry weapons or crew one of 14 different fully-realised vehicles on the Russian Front between 1941-45.

I can't tell if you're being sarcastic or not, but have you never heard of Flashpoint? That's the grand daddy of the Battlefield series. I'm sure there are others that go even further back.

In general, I like that the post here swing in the direction of the OP. And one question, why do we need amoured fury when we got Taraba and OSS? It's all about tanks (and jets *sigh*), so we will get THREE maps entirely about tanks and ... jets ... and helos. Ugh! Jets with even more stopping power against a tank. Now the main gun will not only harrass, but send a tank into oblivion once it got spotted.

Of course you may say that the orignal maps of BF2 offer anything, you can fight infantry if you want to, but for example in Darquing I don't see the point running across the map to get to that flag only to be killed by tank/APC/helo that just spawned there. Same goes in varying degrees with any other vanilla map. A infantry only map won't be just a CS remake, because the classes got much more diversity in itself and their abilities. Ah, and you may respawn although the round hasn't ended yet.

Ok, the obligatory disclaimer: Yes, I do appreciate vehicles in BF2.

Edit: Ah, I forgot. Did anyone play DC Lostvillage for Desert Combat? That map will show what an infantry only map could be like. It rocks!

A couple of infantry maps, y not?...
I not sure how people can argue this.  If EA did it,  it would not effect you who don't want it, at all.
Minus the loss of time on bug fixing of course.
