well you do have 'sucks' in your name... j/k

i wonder why the vehicle-on-vehicle thing proved too hard to code - or perhaps it was a matter of game balance? maybe they felt that the lcac just over-balanced in favour of the team that had them, and so cut it.

i also wonder whether this relates to why the essex can't be moved, like the naval ships in '42 - because the no v-o-v would mean the jets and choppers would explode?

anyway, its unlikely we'll ever know. also, given that there are other things that are in the code that were never introduced but have since surpassed with new stuff (like the laser designator and sniper rifle, which were surpassed by the SF toys and l96 respectively), its extremely unlikely the lcac will be dusted off and introduced...

If they brought back laser designation, the LCAC, the rocket pod blackhawk, and the old Mashtuur, BF2 would be complete.

Holy shit, your the only other person I know about that knows of the old Mashtuur!!! I agree with eveything you said except they had a few other skins in the game for the viechals. And if they make the F35B equal to the Mig 28 of the F18 then the game is complete.

Yeah. I remember that alternate skin for the Cobra, kinda olive drab one...

yeah. rocket pod bh would be so much fun. an un-nerfed rocket pod bh would be even better.

the problem is that they made a bunch of crap changes and ignored the ones they should have made. instead of removing retarded tactics and glitches, they nerfed the weapons... gg dice. i used to get totally owned by the bh on wake - but you know what, i never complained, becuase 1) it was a fun, really intense experience to try and bring that fucking thing down (which could actually be done much easier now anyway with the new 1337 aa), and 2) i always got my own opportunity to whore the bh right back, so it evened out.

despite this being such an awesome game and amazing effort, they've really mismanaged its even greater potential from day one, imho. this is why some of the mods are really worth paying attention to.

what was the old mashtuur? tell me all. i do wish the laser designation was back in the game, and definatly the LCAC, it would hav worked, those things travel fast, i hav seen them in Crete. they do over 70-80Kmph, and dont forget hovercrafts travel over land too. so u could drive them over anything! it would rock

if that was coded into the game you know there would be tards who will park 4 tanks on it and proceed to rape teh shit out of the beaches.

prolly the same with the rocket-podded BlackHawk, i mean rockets AND 2 miniguns? kinda over powered. flag-hopping 2 DA MAX!

AND the same with the 107' (That MASSIVE 50.cal Sniper Rifle) it would have been firing M95 rounds at the SVD/Type88 speed... how awesome would that be!?!?

My conclusion, it these things just made the USMC too powerful. but just imagine a team of 10 people... 3 in teh BlackHawk, 5 on the LCAC, 1 Sniper and a commander....maybe that wouldnt be so bad...

Its on JO i think
IIRC it had a major bug in Joint Ops.  If you drove onto the LCAC in the wrong way, it had a tendency to explode.  And don't forget that the maps in JO were huge compared to BF2.  There was one where all the action took place on a square island, just over 1km from each side's starting bases.  That's about the same distance as on Operation Clean Sweep, from the US base to the MEC base.

No way will we see the LCAC on BF2.  Not unless someone sticks it on a mod.

What I want to see are the missing maps.

The old, OLD Mashtuur from the E3 video for BF2. with the F-15, rocket pod BH, laser designation, better physics (those green canisters would move if you shot them)

Heh, did anybody ever play the game Planetside? For those who don't know it's a futuristic game with robots etc. Well anyways, the robots could mount into the ground and be more accurate and I think they had a more powerful weapon but you couldn't unmount from the ground. Well they would go on the planes in the game and mount on the plane. Within the first three games of the game being released, they fixed it.

oh man, i would love to see the lcac in bf2...reminds be of DC for '42 with subs and moving naval ships, battle ships, subs, the lcac....in some ways i like DC better than BF2. But since just about everyone moved to bf2 and it became hard to find a suitable server i switched to bf2.

yeh, but i think that sometimes it can be annoying, as it can take a whie to walk to the action. it isnt as gd as Karkand i dont think, for purely ground based combat, as it is slightly too big. i think that the laser designation and F 15 and all of that would have been far better on a different map, like Op Clean Sweap ( i know it already has the F15. Op Clean sweep could do with the LCAC as well.

I think anyone who have been waiting for bf2 before it came out know about the old mashtuur and the old skins... they took out all the good stuff to add in crappy stuff.. The old mashtuur looked great... if only they released it along with the old skins (character, weapons.. the m4 had a red scope, and vehicles) and the missile bh.. and also some of you may not have noticed but they totally changed the physics in the game.. in the e3 trailer and the intro video when you open up bf2, after you killed somebody they dropped their weapon. When BF2 was released after you killed someone their gun just disappeared..and i would've especially loved to see that LCAC in action on zatar or maybe even Songhua.
