I like the new feature of being able to make some maps infantry only
but i think the server filter should be made deeper than just infantry only.

Take a map like wake island (for example)

Infantry only wouldn't work because you need transport, but somepeople dislike the constant plane bombing
so how about making the server filters a bit like this...

1: Infantry only
2: Infantry & Transport only
3: Infantry, Transport & Armor only
4: Infanrty, Transport, Armor, and Aviation.

Imagine how diferent Wake island would play if it was set to just infantry and transport.
No armor, no planes, no choppers.

and other maps would play very diferent too.

Want to borrow my glasses m8? Sometimes I really get the idea that loads of people om BF2S are depressed and are afraid of changes.

Personally I think Darkmiss has a good idea that worth some thought.

SO WHY THE F*CK do you have to start moning like a littel bitch Delphy

Have a nice day

Yeah,just make an option where you can change everything,vehicles,classes,weapons,etc...
And of course make it ranked,we don't want to make any "insert-vehicle/class/weapon here"-whiners cry by not giving them a possibility to rack up points in a "child-safe"-environment.
"Yes,I want to pwn too,please.Can you remove all the things that usually kill me,please?"

Then everybody can construct a game of his own and we'll get the craziest stats ever.
Not that they are already a bit fucked up now,you can still see what a guy did on which map to get his stats.
The mix'n'match-option would totally distort it,infantry only is bad enough already if it's going to be ranked.

Good idea for unranked,bad for ranked servers.
I already see it:Big map,no vehicles and almost everybody's a medic - ticket loss comes to a hold because people are reviving like crazy and best round counts will easily rise up to 1000+.

IO mode should just be left unranked. Bf2, stats, and game balance is all based on vehicles. Thats y there is kits to deal with them.

Get killed by a tank? Respawn as AT or spec-ops? Noooo thats WAY too hard. ill just cry nerf to DIce and that peskey tank won't bother me anymore.

You think Wake would be bad? What about Dalian?
DV will be one hell of a long round....try running from the carrier to the Refinery
Same with FuShe too.

yes but imagine them with no jets or attack choppers
longers rounds yes, but more fun IMO

It's only an option I'm sugesting, not all servers would run it
just like not all servers would be running the infantry only option

I just think that if infantry only is to be made an option for the server admins
there should be other variables to choose

I Like it, though they should add the option that on wake u can't chooce the ''Infantry Only'' since then the USMC has to swim Meaning that China will allway win..mmm.. gay..

Game isn't balanced by vehicles, a good chopper team can own the entire Shariq Peninsula, and on Karkand its extremely annyoning when u want to mow down people with a MG and then some friggin tank kill you, you gotta be AT and get 4 friggin shots at the tank, 2 with luck, a shitload without luck, and then u have that DAO that doesn't work for shit at longer ranges or medium ranges, yeah great.
I think u care about people rankin faster then you and gettin higher KDR's and SPM's, ah booohooo

Bloody good idea! +1!

Edit: For increased flexibility you could work it as an option to filter out certain types of vehicle.

Do you want a pansy only filter also??? Just joking I'd never say anything like that seriously. I would give you some karma but what do you know I think I'm out. Nice Idea but I think that the USMC would have some problems getting to the island in nothing but boats!!! Imagine that the whole chinese team anti-tank, what a mess that would be!

EDIT: Mr. Kamikazi your sig scares me, it looks like that one guy is grabbin the other's balls. Other than that it looks pretty cool!

I'd give you karma, but apparently, I suck at these boards too much and don't have enough posts. Anyway, nice idea. It's good to see that not all people around here are dumb-fucks like Delphy.
