All I can say is that I'm glad I'll be able to play on a server that doesn't have jets dropping bombs on me 1 second after I spawn for 10 minutes straight. That is one sure way to kill the fun of the game, and to all you air-whores, just wait till we meet on the ground....
yea i want to see what they did with the large maps that u need vehicles to get around
is it ranked?

Yes, CS:BF2 will be great. I'm glad they made such a varied game (planes, jeeps, tanks, TOWs, etc.) so I can ignore all of those and play CS on bigger maps.
Why does everyone hate the vehicles so much? It's the variety of this game that makes it so fun. Are planes bothering you? Get in another plane, the carrier guns, a Tunguska, a Stinger... Is it a tank? Spawn as either Special Ops, Engy, or Anti-Tank and take him out. Or find another tank, or a TOW, or plane, or a heli. I think there's a conceit out there about infantry taking more skill. There are options for dealing with vehicles and these just take different skills.

IMO they gave modern tanks and planes, yet for the people on the ground, all you have is cold war era shoulder fired weapons. How is that fair?chittydog wrote:

You're forgetting that there will still be mounted saw's and rpk's and whatever the PLA one is called.AK5489 wrote:

Yes it is ranked, it is a server option, it just removes the vehicles, AT weapons used by the AT kit and TOW/stinger inplacements...xX[Elangbam]Xx wrote:

Jbrar - they are removing TOW/stinger implacments and the hand held RPG/SAWS etc... why in the hell do you need them for infantry only? There won't even be transports in INFANTRY ONLY optioned servers...

I might point you to other threads dealing with the imbalance in the STA/ATG fights. Unless you are one of the pilots that ruin it for the rest of us, you will agree that something has to change so that the planes don't control the maps. If that means that I need to play IO, then so be it. I don't however have any problems with tank whores, we are given many tools to destroy them, C4, AT mines, AT rockets. Only a few static SAM sites, that is bull.chittydog wrote:

I agree with; that Karkand will be a lot of fun as io. As I've been saying for ages that they need less armor in that level. But it'll be interesting to see how the US will have to push past the hotel. I have a feeling the stacked team will no longer be US but MEC on those servers.

whooo more nade spamming, whooo... cant wait to snipe the nade spamers though.
I don't see why they would remove gun placements which are intended for killing infantry...
It really is going to be a sniper heaven isn't it? Now ppl with K/D below 2 or 1.75 will be considered a "Infranter"
It isn't already a sniper heaven?xX[Elangbam]Xx wrote:

Read my post, I said nothing about LMG implacements just TOW/stingers implacements... in other words anti-tank implacements and anti air implacements will be removed... You made a comment about SRAW's/RPG they won't be there... LMG implacements will still be there...Jbrar wrote:

Wake without planes is going to be very interesting. The only thing I have to wonder about that map is are they going to leave the boats? Otherwise the Chinese snipers would have a field day with all the infantry having to swim to shore.
I'll let you play and decide for yourself.usmarine2005 wrote:

I can't wait for the patch tomorrow (or whenever) so I can play on an Infantry only server. I am wondering which servers will be the most populated, Infantry only or the ones with planes, tanks, helos, etc ?
I will be on the Infantry only servers........if there is any.

Swimmer: Cover me dammit
Friendly Sniper: he usiing teh h@x I can't get the mothafuckin drop on him!
Swimmer: i'm down to one bar of health you n00b!
Friendly Sniper: screw you
Enemy Sniper: so....why don't you guys press "K" when you type to each other instead of "j" where i can see you
I would imagine (if the boats are gone) that US snipers would cover them (good luck against me ) while the Chinese snipers, well, annihilate them. But imagine again:
PLA: GOODAMMIT! HES RIB CAMPING!
The SRAW will not be there! Why in the pit of hades would you use a P-90, when the other kits have weapons that have twice the accuracy?AK5489 wrote:

P.S. yes it does
I would agree with you fully about the P-90 is a good weapon. But the AT kit itself is going to be quite useless as that kit doesn't even have grenades... There are weapons that own the P-90 anyways is all I was saying, I would take the G3 or even a good old M16 over the P-90 any day...xX[Elangbam]Xx wrote:

If they take the SRAW out, then does the Anti tank get a different weapon, or is he primary, pistol, and knife?
