Thank you EA i really wait for the day when you are going to fix your faults what you did to us.

what exactly has ea done to us except publish an addicting fps game?

Well they rushed it out before it was ready.  They filled it with annoying gliches that they have no intention of fixing.  They give us "bonus maps" that are paid for by sponsers but they still suck.  They have an expansion that has some cool features but half the maps suck because they are night.  They come out with a map pack that doesnt have one really good map.  A friend installed it and only the euro maps worked and EA's advice was to by it again.

For clarification, Dice made BF2, EA only marketted it.  Dice made a highly addictive awesome FPS and EA did everything it could to make it crappy (by not caring about their customers).

Most pointless thing is smoke grenade for Assault kit, I would love to see a smoke like it is in PR

I find the smoke grenade quite useful, I have avoided many tanks and APCs using this little life saver.

The other half of the time, a tank aims its coax straight into the smoke and gets about five blind kills, or the cloud fades before you can get across the street.

The particles need to last longer.

I have had literally NO use out of the flashbang other than annoying teammates. I used it on the team's commander once, and he chased me around the helipad for a few minutes trying to knife me.

Not useful by a LONG shot, but fun as hell. Especially in crowded areas.

so, what so you think could be more pointless than this?

I think that's for helipads, I only see it when I'm near a pad, it's supposed to guide you in I guess.

The most useless map ever is Iron Gator, 32 sized. That's a waste. If the Navy Seals are not a complete bunch of retards they've won the fight without really even trying.

Good point.
That might be it.

I too have only seen it near helipads.
It might indicate the exact location of the helipad when you try to land, so you don't have to look around.
