So what do you all think?

I wasn't very impressed with the two Middle Eastern maps, Great Wall might be fun once I've learned it a bit more, but I not sure about that one either.

I cant stand the quarry (spelling), but op smoke screen was fun when russ,maz,mid and I were on it in choppers had a apocalypse now feel , but its way to open, i get they were trying for a mecinised map but still.

I have only played as MEC so I cant comment on the EUA

i like it, but with only a few maps i think people will stop playing it pretty soon as there wont be much variation.

yes but then the bf2 players who dont have the map will disconnect, so i cant see that working too well.
I played it a bit more today and it has lost some of its charm tbh.

I have to be honest, I thought the maps were terrible, the 2 mid east maps are far too open and have way too much armour for my taste. The Great Wall map has way too many hiding places for snipers/campers + it's too big/has too many vehicles.

What we needed was another karkand style map.

Time for anotehr free map or 2 please EA, and please finish wake2007 for gods sake!!!!

Wake island is great fun I love all aspects of it. Sniping is best though.. long thin corridor shaped map and troops all running towards you to pick off

I think it's pretty good. Operation Smoke Screen and Great Wall are good. Quarry isn't great but all the new weapons are good. The EU support gun is really good along with the FAMAS. Too many tanks though.

Too many tanks, too open, faulty MEC run way on Taraba Quarry (almost never reloads 2 bombs)

And the worst issue is no 16 or 64 player versions of the maps, which is EXTREMELY lame, means we have to suffer maps that are really too big for 32 players, but too small for 64.

I would be moaning if it was free to be honest, not good value at all.

Makes you wonder who they asked before designing the maps? They should of asked the community and done some type of city assult addon

Well, in a way they did, special forces.

In my opinion EA nows owes the community, at least 1 16/32/64 (IE; a PROPER FINISHED MAP) city style map, karkand of sharqi like.

The 1 bomb reloading thing on Taraba Quarry is lame yes, but it still exists on Dalian Plant on the Chinese team and that's not been addressed at all since the game came out.

I'm pretty sure they could fix it quite easily too.

i agree that the maps are too big and not very well though out... personally i cant wait for the EA to take some community maps and allow them to be played on ranked servers.

Theirs a very good Al Elemain map and a few good winter maps out their
