Why do you guys play karkand so much?! I mean its just liek all the other FPS games, a city and you just go around shooting the tactics arent as thought out as you need to be on the bigger maps and it just seems liek you just want kills so your score goes up? Whats the point? Why not play BF2 for what it was made for, wide gameplay on massive maps not normal maps that you can get on CoD2, MOH etc. anyway, thats my point made I can breathe now.
why not?
ok, now iv said that...
i play karkand as i LIKE the map. its a great map, it has great looks about, the feel of it is great, as is the gameplay involved in it. karkand DOES need teamwork to play, that is if the other team uses teamwork. the hotel flag has to have had some of the best little battles in bf2, as when the game starts and everyone is rushing forward, you get a true feel for what bf2 was made to be like. 64 players almost running at eachother from the hotel towards the artillery bases is one of the main reasons why karkand is so popular, for me anyway. then theres the fact of the vehicles in karkand. if you just have stray people whoring the vehicles, they are gonna get taken out easily, but if the vehicle whores use teamwork, they can conquer the map easily. for the MEC's, its all about defense, and if the infantry can hold off the USMC until the vehicles get there then theres a good chanve that they may win. the USMC must use teamwork and tactics efficeitntly to get past the MEC and get some inner flags.
karkand is the highlight of bf2, many people play it as its just the best. yes, you do get more points on this map, but if you also notice, in most cases, peoples points arent far from eachother. there are the odd cases yes.
stop bashing karkand just because you dont like it.

Karkand stinks
Sure your sig is big enough EntertaineR_06?
mashtuur >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> karkand
Because this thread has been posted millions of times...
LOL @ SysTray
dalian and wake are bigger point whore maps than karkand. just rape the carrier. u cant even be killed, unlike on karkand.

I've yet to see a First Person Shooter which doesn't involve just going around shooting.EntertaineR_06 wrote:

The tactics are only as thought out as the tactician. Of course I want kills so my score goes up. How does that differ to the other maps?EntertaineR_06 wrote:

See the first point. It is a map I enjoy. That is the point in playing it.EntertaineR_06 wrote:

I do a lot of that, too. However, every now and again it is a nice change to turn to a map with a little more close quarters combat. Urban combat is very fun, I love running into buildings and taking the fight indoors.EntertaineR_06 wrote:

I don't have CoD2, nor MOH. I don't feel like shelling out extra money if all I am going to get is a karkand which isn't set in the modern era.EntertaineR_06 wrote:

Because I don't like walking for over 30 seconds to find someone to shoot at. Ever.
I like Karkand since I don't have to spawn, either spend 30-60 seconds to walk where I'm going, get killed, repeat or jump in a vehicle, get bombed by planes, then repeat. An ace pilot on one side can control a map and make it unplayable for the rest. That's why I love Karkand, Sharqi, Mashtuur, and Special Forces.
I dont have to find a vehicle to enjoy the game with karkand.

As you can see from this perfect diagram, your lame excuse for humor did indeed KILL that joke. I doubt we can pull it back up.

Karkand is a shitty excuse for a city map. lets look at the movie Black Hawk Down, for instance. On every roof, there are people shooting at you. every building can be gotten into. tanks cannot fit on the roads.
a REAL city map has nothing predictable. Karkand is the same. every time. US spawns, rushes the center and right side of the Hotel. the US tank rapes the alleys
It just seems like Systrays cartoon is to the point, I like it .. It doesnt take much skill in piloting, hell Ive played CFS and had more competition than on BF2. They either need to make a map where you spawn in aircrap or eliminate the bombs. Because out of my 1000 hrs of gameplay Ive only seen two planes even fight each other, its usually the aircrap wave to each other as they are bombing infantry, why wouldnt you, a plane is one kill, alot of red dots is at least 2-10 kills, hell Im not the greatest pilot but I can drop a bomb and hit at least two people.
My favorite map is Warlord the stats say, I do play Kark alot because there isnt a superpower to be reckoned with, but I do see almost the same thing, one tank on one side and the enemies on the other raping infantry, what happened to fighting each other, seems it all about the points and who cares what you do to get them. Aircrap isnt hard to get points in, especially if they know the map and know where the puny AA is.

Ditto, I can see why people play it I really can but the amount of time you guys play it don't u get bored?! Yes, i have played wake a lot but you will notice that i've not been aviator a substantial amount of the time (as much as you anyway zimmer, i'll get you on TS). I love mashtuur purely because tanks dont usually overpower it, on karkand someone in a tank going around sitting at a spawn point will destroy the match.stryyker wrote:
