I believe that was possible when the game first came out! but patches stopped it....i agree,that should have beenbrought over from 1942....it would be cool to have naval battles more modern!!

They planned on implementing drivable ships and such way back when, but decided not to due to them thinking morons would drive the carrier of the map, etc, as they did in 42. I wish they had naval ships along with movable ships...but w/e.

That would be great to have navy boats and no land... just jets copters and boats!
There was a map that EA released for 1942 where ther was little land, two carriers and planes. The only way to capture the flag was to sink the other carier.

I would just park it by the PLA airfield.  Use the Essex guns to keep their helo and jets grounded, then take out any and all ground troops, giving support for the USMC to take over the flag.

Wake would turn from being PLA biased to being USMC biased.

It would take a LONG time to get the essex around to the airfield. Most of the tickets would be gone by then.

No, there would be different zones to which you could move the carrier.  It wouldn't be able to drive right up to the beach

It should.  You should also be able to go PLA and commandeer it...then drive it out of bounds.
Not
Great success!

Speaking of this. I know that somewhere it mentioned for BF1942: (One of the Expansions) it had "Submarines." Yet I never saw them. What was up with this?

And I do agree with the first poster. Naval battles, outside of RIBs and that's it, would be amazing to behold. They planes would have a drastic effect on it. Except it would have to have many more ships for this to be implemented.

EA would have to introduce several new vehicles, and almost all of them would have to be purely naval. Otherwise, naval battles would be dull.

yea, there were subs. they were painfully slow though and not that exciting to  use.

Well hey, at leats they have movable titans in 2142...

The original BF 1942 had submarines, on a few of the Pacific maps.  Only in multiplayer though, they weren't available in single player.

The carrier would need to be sinkable and not able to be driven off the map ... And why wouldn't the carrier come around the airfield side and bombard the base? That's a little more realistic right? The PLA would just need to sink it first.

It was called "Coral Sea".

What about "carrier zones" where you can move it?
And no planes will give commander less points, isn't it illogical to do it then?

They could just release an entire strictly naval booster pack. Carrier to carrier with subs, sub hunters, seal divers with charges. I think it would be bad ass, it would also eliminate tank whoring.

there needs to be unlockable launchers in BF2, that would finish off tank whoring, like rpg-7 in karkand would keep those tankers away
