Thats pretty cool, doesn't it seem a bit early though? I mean, they need to focus on BF2 and problems if there are any before moving onto an expansion pack.

Might be trying to grab everyone before the mods come out and pwn vanilla bf2.

So now we have to pay for something that was promised in BF2.

What bastards.

mrhahn · 07-25-2005, 03:00 PM

Is it just me, or does "supported with USB headset" make it sound like you have to buy their headset for VOIP to work?

maverick514 · 07-25-2005, 03:49 PM

They took the personal character growth idea from me. I knew I should have trademarked it.

Most people who meet the business end of my C4 detonator never even knew I planted the package on them.

TyphoonSupport · 07-25-2005, 04:29 PM

Sounds great, I'm looking forward to it.

there's nothing wrong a bit of tactical play being brought in.

Caslon · 07-31-2005, 05:59 AM

It might be a cool ad on. I'd like to see not such large distances between flag points. I hate walking long distances in BF2.

Hey, the game itself didn't come with a computer.

mrhahn · 07-31-2005, 02:11 PM

Moving this to the new Special Forces expansion forum.

Azreal · 07-31-2005, 03:31 PM

Ooooo, new forum.

So this is going to mean you play this game on a different server? As if it was another game?

Why cant they just incorporate this into the game we already have, so that it doesnt further divide the community up into segments.

I think its going to be like RTR, where you can join the servers, but it will kick you once a new map loads.

Yeah. Except RtR will probably be better than this expansion pack.
