I propose a 'Community Night' of sorts that involves 3 maps in a row of hand-picked Infantry Maps for the 64 player server. This would only entail an admin being there for 2 of the maps and setting the next map in the rotation. Server will be open to all, including foreigners and maybe New Zealanders.

 

Maps will be chosen by the community and could possibly involves with the server admin's permission, certain 16/32 player maps if chosen.

 

 

I feel that Infantry guys miss out a tad and it would be nice to give them their own special night with 3x1.5 hour maps in a row.

 

Interested? What maps would you like to see?

Small Maps like

Road to K'noingni* (dont ask me its a stupid name)

Sunset City

Ghost Train

 

I think its a good idea but the server should be locked so it is like a community night... nothin worse than having a great game which is very hard due to just having infantry only to be ruined by some random who decides he wants to lone wolf or take all the kits

sounds good SOP

Bi Ming!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Cant run Kyongyang'ni its bugged, but otherwise sounds like a good concept there SOP.

How is it bugged?

kashea desert 16player

not kashan im not walking kashan

YES YOU ARE!

I like.

Ghost Train FTW

and if we play kashan someone's piggy backing me around the map, screw walking that.

Damn you SOP, have you been reading my mind??

 

I was thinking 3 x 16p maps in a row, all same factions i.e. Brits vs PLA - Quin Ling, Bi Ming and Op Ghost Train. But I wasn't sure what loading them up with 32p a side was gonna do to game play (hence why I haven't said anything yet).

 

You could always play around with the order to ensure the same teams played the same factions for all three.

I know the larger Inf maps but sometimes you can miss a 16 player gem, if only I have played all of them.

 

Qin Ling 16 player seems quite interesting. How it would play with 50 people is anybody's guess.

I reckon 64p Ghost train, 16p Kashan (which is an infantry map) and Bi Ming. Maybe Ejod (APCs?) too.

 

some 16p maps are not good for 64p IMO, as they are too small/too few flags.

16p Kashan (which is an infantry map)

 

Its not an inf map, its a large map with no heavy assets. Mind you it would be interesting doing kashan 16p with no vehicles...

Sunset city definitely!!

best urban map ever

+1 there shadow tis good inf map, would be a great night SOP for sure.

What about a locked server with a Gentleman's Agreement?

 

Ejod would be a decent Inf map without gunned APC (transport only) and HAT. Kashan 16 perhaps with or without 50 cal. Ghost Train without gunned APC.

 

Those 3 give us large maps, desert, city and forest.

 

Sunset City is good, but due to the one flag only, it's Stalemate City and hard to change the cap once one team is entrenched.

Why ghost train? It's a crap map, half the players drop off the server when it comes on. I'm sure there are better alternatives.

Nah you should allow 50 cal. fire. its sets the mood and sounds really cool

Personally, since I'm a 50cal whore, I would vote against it. Because, yes, you can get sniped out occasionally, but you can totally destroy opposing teams with it.

 

I'm looking for the pure inf aspect of man against man. If it came down to 50cal'd Kashan, I'd spend the entire round in the gun and I'm reasonably sure that someone may lose an eye.

are we going to do BF2v infantry only or just infantry based maps

i rather not do infantry only maps because it goes against the whole point of project reality but infantry based maps are good like kashan 16p

 

also ghost train i always leave when that map comes on

Yeah ghost train and Bi Ming are a bit of a pop killer... its to easy to get flanked, or pinned down by a sniper/marksman which can get really frustrating.

Why Ghost Train? Our Squad had a really good round on it last night, and I'm a little tired of Bi Ming.

 

Why don't we attempt desert, forest, city 3 rounder.

 

Forest gives you Bi Ming, Qin Ling 16, Road to Kyongan'Ni , Ghost Train, 7 Gates 16/64, Mestia etc.

 

Maybe 16 player choices can be considered if they have at least 2-3 flags (problem is, the zones are tiny in 16).

 

    * 7 Gates
   * Al Basrah
   * Al Kufrah Oilfield
   * Assault on Mestia
   * Bi Ming
   * Daqing Oilfields
   * EJOD Desert
   * Fools Road
   * Gulf of Oman
   * Hills of Hamgyong
   * Jabal Al-Burj
   * Kashan Desert
   * Operation Ghost Train
   * Qwai River
   * Road to Kyongan'Ni
   * Sunset City
   * The Battle for Qinling
   * Zatar Wetlands

 

 

Edit: I'd hop in-game and take screenshots of the 16 maps but I'm looking after the baby. Not going to happen.

i really dont think it goes against project reality, in my eyes having any heavy assets like tanks planes or attack choppers on the size of maps we have and only 60 ppl is unrealistic. so maps with just inf with 60 ppl on these size maps i say are more realistic than wat we normaly have. and ghost train kicks all sorts of ass
