The 16 sized map of Karkand seems a little unbalanced and unfair towards the MEC....they have 3 capturable flags, and 1 armoured vehicle (A tank). The USMC, however, have 3 UNcapturable bases, and 2 armoured vehicles (A tank AND an APC...). Seems a little unfair?

It's not like I've been constantly losing as MEC on this map though, quite the opposite actually. It just struck me as odd that the USMC would have an extra armoured vehicle, as well as a guarranteed spawn point. Especially with only 16 people....8 vs 8, yet one set of 8 is at a disadvantage.

I've been playing on as many of those servers that i can find, which is very few if that, in attempts to get my W/L ratio up.

1. If you know what you are doing and don't attack the hotel every minute of the game, you can single handily win the game.

2. MEC should always win assuming the MEC commander stays back in the rear TOW.

3. The same rule applies on the 16 that does on the 32/64 maps: get the rear flag first if USMC. 

4. Usually the tank and apc never stay together on the USMC, allowing a good MEC tank driver to take out the APC first, repair, then take out the tank.


What I've noticed on these servers is that they are usually full of noobies (always snipers for some reason) or high ranking people there for quick wins. The noobies don't follow any rules like the ones above. I got a few of my clan mates on one last night with me because our server was empty and we won every match all of us played in. Though admittedly winning as USMC is a bit harder unless you cap all the flags at about the same time.

if your playing usmc and ya get to the square things get alot easier due to the anti-tank capabilities.mines at the ramp,the tow missile in the square,and anti-tankers on the roofs make it easy to total the only tank they have.a competent team lets the anti-tankers take out the tank before they let the tank and apc role in with infantry support to own the mec in short time

Hmm,I don't know,I've never played on a 16-player-map before.
I think BF2 is meant to be played with lots and lots of people and that's why I always play on 64-player-server.

In my opinion 8 players per side only works with Counter-Strike or TacOps,but not with BF2.
