Hello,

Does it seem to anyone else other than me that there are just too many Karkand I/O servers? I mean last night I tried to find one with vehicles and I either found servers that had 0 players or ones that were 200 ping to me. I was going quite far down the list to find one and I finally found a decent server to play on with vehicles.

I find certain enjoyment running people over. +1 me if I ran over you LOL No seriously I'm a APC whore but I love running people over.

So anyways does this bug anyone else but me?

Not if most of the people are idiots who are killing the game and turning every server into "TWANTYFORE/SEVAN INFANTRY KARKEND!!!!1CITY MAPS!"

It seriously sucks when I log into BF2 and the front page of servers is filled with that garbage. Adding IO was one of EA's shittiest ideas. It has its moments, but not when 50% of the servers have IO on.

Thankfully BF2142 doesn't have it.

Moongamers is okay if you need a karkand vehicles fix.

But it doesnt bother me too much, IO is nice sometimes when you dont want to get hunted down by armor and stuff. I go for both vehicles and IO

Maybe people dont enjoy constantly getting raped by tanks, pumbled by artillery, TK'd for vehicles and raped by Aerial folk, or walking 1000 metres before actually seeing an enemy

So why is the shittest map in the game, Wake Island, so popular? It is exactly that.

1000 metres is the biggest exageration Ive ever seen. On Tampa, from the MEC uncap to the nearest flag, Buhifum Village, is 600m and thats the biggest distance.
And if you really walk that far, try a car ffs. Thats what they are there for.

So maybe I was over-exagerating, but what good is a car? You get in it, drive a couple hundred metres and either get bombed or a tank comes around the corner and enhilates you.
I wasnt really talking about Wake either, I was meaning more about city maps with vehicles, thats where the real ass-hetey goes on, people just sitting in the spawn-points with an APC or M1A2.

karkand io is killing the game and your playing skills... even when it is fun from time to time, this map and mode is overplayed.

i know a lot of good infantry players who didnĀ“t even got their basics in vehicles and spent more than 90% of their time on this map. it is quite funny to see them bitching about tanks, jets and artillery and leaving the server with a negative k/d, when they got owned too much, while others manage both modes and own with every class, vehicle and mode....

Then drive offroad, and learn to swerve and avoid bombs. Not much you can do about the nose cannon, but try to use trees/buildings to avoid LOS, because jets need LOS else they cant touch you. Tanks very rarely can hit a speeding FAV/DPV so you must be doing something wrong if you get hit often?
This is what I do when Im in a tank and I have a chopper trying to take me out, I just keep driving under its belly as its turning/spinning to try and line you up.
Wake though, is exactly what is described there. People sitting in spawn points with Armour, well, so what? Dont spawn there, or if you have to (i.e. only uncap left) spawn AT and use the terrain to your advantage to stick rockets into it.

As I always say, its all down to that people cannot adapt to change kits: either because they cant, dont want a death to hurt their precious KDR or because they dont want to lose out on ever-so-valuable points from reviving.
If 5 people were to spawn at AT, that tank would be dead and people know it. Its just that they dont want to, and cant do it.
