Where's the pic from? Or is it fake?

The distances between the flags would be quite long. From the bottom left to the top right flag it would be 1.3km beeline.
Now imagine having to travel that distance on foot, between all those rectangular city blocks with skyscrapers.

This could either be a good urban, CQC map, or a nightmare worse than Metro.

I'm already amused about the console version, having their 12vs12 teams scattered on this...
Let's hope that this actually IS a console screenshot and the PC version has 7 flags.

Recreating BF2 settings in BF3 is useless until they've added the commo-rose commands for "Need ammo" and "Need medic" (which apparently will be done in the upcoming patch in the form of some "new commands").

Also, in regards of health/vehicle regeneration:
BF2 only worked so well as it did, because you could repair vehicles by simply moving your vehicle next to them.
And IMO, that's equally ridiculous as regeneration, if not even more stupid.

The same goes for healing, by simply standing next to a medic vehicle.
"Hands-free" first-aid...
Honestly, that sounds more stupid to me than health regeneration (which, as mentioned above, is quite ineffective anyway).

But at least that required some semblance of teamwork. If you wanted to do well you had to sick together. Now we can just peak over a hill, fire a few shots, then retreat back and regen whether we're a sniper or a tank.

It's a wonder we don't regenerate ammo when on foot.

Dear noob helicopter pilots,

Don't jump into the helicopter if you're going to fly straight towards the AA with no flares.

that is all.

Flying a helicopter with randoms is damn near impossible to be effective. Out of 100 pilots maybe 1-2 are decent pilots or gunners.

I'd put pub flying above pub gunning. At least as a pilot you won't go straight into enemy territory, and you can give your gunner a chance with some shots (probably won't take them, but the opportunity is there; as opposed to pub gunning where you can't hit anything because the pilot is a dumbfuck).
