The price of the expansion pack is not the point, the way EA are trying to force me to buy it is.

How are they forcing you? You buy it or you don't

I don't think they should allow SF weapons on BF2 servers. That pisses me off. They have no business in BF2. They are forcing us to "blend" with SF shit. That isn't right

Haha suffer

It doesn't bother me in the slightest. And when I pick up an SF gun I'm like, sweet.

That white out flash grenade is kinda bizzare for non SF BF2 gamers.
It whites out so much. I was against it at first for BF2, but it's not really
made a huge difference...it's just annoying.

Fishfinger · 12-19-2005, 08:28 AM

I blinded myself with one the other day :/

Amraam · 12-19-2005, 11:20 AM

Yup, they last far too long, and they often blind you rather than the enemy, so you just speed up your own death. Either that or Im more of a noob than I thought.

jackbauer06 · 12-19-2005, 09:32 PM

bf2 is too fast paced for them. especially on a map like karkland,w here it would be good, if people were not spawning left and right constantly

DeathWing · 12-21-2005, 06:52 AM

I kinda like sf. it puts a new twist in the game with the night vis an the tear gas i'd say its just different. not good or bad (anyone notice the bots have gotten better?)

Dont like how there blending bf2 and sf though.

DeathWing · 12-21-2005, 06:53 AM

an i HATE flashbangs!!!

Mad Monk · 12-21-2005, 01:17 PM

^^They're great to use against tanks & APCs. Toss one if front of him and while he's blinded, your Spec Ops buddies lay the C4 smack-down on him...as long as you don't blind your buddies too.

M3speed · 12-21-2005, 04:18 PM

well here's my review, i've had it for 3 days

overall i give it a 3 out of 5

likes:

1. new vehicles are great!! (jest ski's, atv's, pick up trucks!)
2. new weapons (grapling hook, flashbangs, tear gas)
3. new armies (SAS, Rebels etc,,)

dislikes:

1. Maps are way too big!! not enough vehciles on them, way too many places to hide especially in city maps, every buidling u can climb (yes, i know it's realistic but makes it much much harder to get kills cause you're always getting sniped or something)
2. most non-urban maps are all sniping! hate it!
3. longer load times
4. more lag (for me anyways)
5. much harder to get kills i find

this is from my personal experience obviously, i guess i need to play some more to really get used to it but so far i am more displeased with it than pleased... mainly cause maps r way too big and i'll be lucky to get 5 kills sometimes

M3speed · 12-21-2005, 06:18 PM

one more thing, the map where MEC has to infiltrate the US ship is horrible!

nearly impossible to do, half the time on my way there my boat always gets blown up

that is probably the worst map in the game

i played a couple more hours and don't like SF any better than i did before, you get killed so often and don't even know from where, the maps are too big

that's my rant

Mad Monk · 12-21-2005, 06:22 PM

That was more of a whine than a rant. Sounds like you just need more practice. :P

Amraam · 12-21-2005, 06:22 PM

Yup that map sucks, the MEC helis cant even take off b4 they are shot down.

M3speed · 12-21-2005, 07:19 PM

not a whine! in case you didn't notice, look at my stats, i'm not a bad player! i just find the SF maps tougher than the regular bf2 maps to get some kills

Looking at your stats tells me one thing.

You are a n00b tube whore.

Rambo_Medic · 12-21-2005, 08:23 PM

Holy crap, he IS a noob-tube tool-bag!

2,897 kills with a GL?!

Noob-tuber.

I really freaking hate the losers that just run around in places like the palace in Warlord with their nade launcher out and just blast away at you when you be a man and use a gun.

Pansies.
