excellent map. being pinned down at a spawn can happen on any map. It really depends on the server. If the server sucks jalalalallbaalahd sucks. But if your on a server that has regulars that play as a team, and play to win, not just points or kit time, its fun as hell. Sometimes america gets pinned down, and some times america cap MEC out.

AND GLlTCHING INSIDE THAT ROCK IS COOL TOO.

Whats your point? That again, has to do with the server and admins. So does Sharqi suck because people can glitch inside of hotel? Or how about Karkand, how many glitch on that map?

Good admins, good server, good players, any and every map is excellent.

Most people hate maps because they suck at them. Or its to slow, there not helping there SPM bullshit. Play to win is funner then playing for points.

i think you missed my lack of sarcasm.

shame the map never gets played, i <3 songhua

9 populated servers playing songhua at this moment according to game-monitor

One of the most underrated maps , same as Zatar Wetlands ... Songhua Stalemate is awesome map in both IO and vehicle mods ... no air rapage , only armor & troops

it's the fog that makes it unpopular I would say

For me, I don't like Songhua because... I dunno. I just don't like it.

Zatar on the other hand, love it. F35 vs. MiG29 isn't exactly fair, but a lot more level than J10 vs. F35. The one attack helicoptor that spawns makes it even more urgent to cap the middle flag, and the scattered oil rigs kinda throw off locks and such.

I'd love to see a lot more Zatar, Mashtuur, and Fushe.

The only IO I play now is Karkand, but even with that, only sometimes. To me, vehicles are what makes this game fun and what distinguishes it from most other FPS (i.e. CS). I've played Jalalabad only twice, once as US and once as MEC. As US, me and two other guys were the only ones trying to cap flags. The rest of the team were trying to be 1337 snipers and just proned in the base waiting for someone to pop their head for 5 seconds. As MEC, it was equally boring. US just sat in their base. So I just left the server. Wake IO is where it's at. 283 BR on a Wake IO map. Just the AK-47.

Being pinned down in the USMC base is kinda fun. It's amazing how many MEC players think that they are invisible on that hill, all the while their dark sniper suits sticking out like sore thumbs against the sky.
32-2 was my score one round.

i hate that map, just like songhua and fushe pass

The 16 player is great for IO imo, but the 32/64 is just retarded on IO (like karkand)

the most underrated map definitely is either 16 stalemate or 16 kubar( it is exactly like bridge crossing in AA)

I just dont understand why anyone play a 32/64 map on IO...

For easy sniper kills, Resupply points, And Easy Medic whoring.

im bored with it

16-32 player Jalalalabad is a great map, any more and it just sucks

hell, IO period is only good with 16-32 players

Jalalalalala is a great IO map 16, 32, and 64. Wether it turns into a snipe fest, depends on how bad the USMC team fails at teamwork. Capping lake and then Market is cake, and it rarely takes more than one squad to even do it. Don't whine that a map sucks because of how the shit players end up making it. If you don't want to be apart of a snipe fest, put together a squad who wants to cap and go cap. 80% of the people who snipe on Jalalala don't know what they're doing, and they'll be out in the open in predictable spots anyhow, making them easy to kill. Jalalalala (all sizes) is a great map, one of the best.

Yes, IO is overrated. It's just sniping and grenade spamming.
