I would jump in there in an instant if I had Euro-force.

If you would like to buy me Euro-Force, please PM me so I can give you my pay-pal info. If you buy me EuroForce I will give you twenty (20) karma and let you choose my member title for two weeks.

Smoke Screen would kill the Great Wall every other map thing! I don't have a problem adding it. I don't know if it's too big or not, though. I've never checked it out.

Okay, after running through both rotations, here is what I have learned:

Vehicles:
- Taraba 16 is fucking awesome. Tank battles the likes of which I have never seen in bf2. (Not including mods.)
- Road Rage 16 is just as fun as I thought it would be.
- Road Rage 32 is not exactly balanced. Two US Littlebirds is a lot to overcome. However,
- Road Rage 32 has a lot of fucking AA.
- Midnight Sun 32 has no flag at the radio tower. I learned that after I tried to cap it.
- Great Wall 16 is not a map you should let the enemy get the mobile AA. Infantry decimator.

IO:
- Road Rage 16 involves a lot of running, but the firefights are intense.
- Midnight Sun 16 is just as fun as Road Rage but the fighting is more close quarter.


When running the maps, IO or not, should it run all the af maps then all the ef maps, or should they be mixed, or does it not really matter?

Overall the maps have been crazy fun and it's cool seeing map sizes that otherwise I'd have never gotten to play. Everyone else seems to be having a blast, too. Only took a year but I finally got these expansions to work on the server!

Mixing is the most fun, however succeding is the most practical, since it alows allows players with only one of the two boosters to play a few rounds.

Sorry haven't been able to help with the server as much, but yes I have found it very fun. I like the idea of playing things we have not played before.

I agree that Taraba is great for tank battles. It shames AF. Shames it! I have a suggestion though for 2 rotations.

16 player with vehicles.

1. Taraba. It is a must. It feels like you really are in some pitched tank battles, and it is really challenging.
2. Road Rage. Played it offline and thought it would be fun with real people.
3. Midnight Sun. Well I don't remember it well in sp but it definitely could be fun.
4. Operation Harvest. Why not?

Now you could throw smoke screen in that, but MEC gets a heli and the EU has a line backer.

16 player IO.

1. Great Wall. Probably one of the best maps for infantry and is good for anything.
2. Midnight Sun. I had fun last time, but we need more people. I bet it could a lot more funner.
3. Road Rage. While the battles were sometimes in between a lot running, I thought some of it was pretty cool. I was loling when we assaulted the  overpass.
4. Operation Smoke Screen. I've played it, and I thought it was fun. There is a bit of running, but once everyone gets the right flags, it can turn into a decent fight. There is only one front.

I'd rather you not throw in a map rotation like Great Wall every other map. I like it, not as much as I used to, but I like it. I just think we should play what we have not and decide what map was awesome and what map wasn't. Then we make grander map rotations!

the road rage 16 was a marathon, but fighting in that little suburb was pretty sweet.  reminds me of when i was a kid playing with nerf guns in my neighborhood.  keep it IO!  never tried the great wall 16 with vehicles, sounds cool.

The new IO rotation is:

Great Wall 16
Midnight Sun 16
Operation Road Rage 16
Great Wall 32
Midnight Sun 16
Operation Road Rage 16
Operation Harvest 16
Taraba Quarry 16
Operation Smoke Screen 16

I don't think that Harvest, Taraba and Smoke Screen will work too well as IO. They're just too big. So they are thrown in at the end of the rotation. They are mostly in the rotation in case anyone wants to play them since they were requested at one time or another.

New vehicle rotation is:

Great Wall 16
Midnight Sun 16
Taraba Quarry 16
Operation Harvest 32
Midnight Sun 32
Operation Road Rage 16
Operation Smoke Screen 16
Great Wall 32
Taraba Quarry 32
Operation Harvest 16
Operation Smoke Screen 32

Road Rage 32 was removed. It's just too imbalanced for the amount of players on the server. Road Rage 64 and Harvest 64 were removed because they take too long.

Feel free to give feedback/suggestions on either rotation.

Vehicle rotation is currently running.

It costs 10 dollars, which I have. However the only way i will be able to convert it into a balance that I can use to purchase EF is to pay $25 for a prepaid gift card.
