Picture this: wrecked Essex half submerged pointing to the sky out of a patchwork of ice.  Titan hovering over the wreck.  Wake Island as it was in BF2 minus the vegetation.  No Titan for the PAC forces, but extra gunships.  Missile silos at each flag.  EU mission: take over the island before Titan is destroyed.  Thoughts?

Wake whore with 2142 perchance?

No not a wake whore, actually.  I've always liked gulf of oman, but I played wake too.  Its just that it seems to be a very popular map in general and it would keep with tradition if EA released a version of the map with every iteration of the BF series.  What I'd really like to see is a version of Lost Village from Desert Combat for Battlefield 2 and/or 2142.  That map was the bomb imo.

Hasnt there been like 2142 different threads on this!  Dont think EA plan on implimenting wake, doesnt fit the story as all the action takes place on the other side of the world, but hey its EA eh   What we need is more dam ranks, before they go adding other maps and expansions.

If they are gonna let EU have an Titan while PAC only get 2 Gunship there should be loads of AA turrets around the map to blow away those Titan guns as they can be pretty damn powerfull.

That or that the Titan shouldn't be able to move. Or to make it more diffrent.

The Titan is on the ground due to some mechanical problem and PAC forces are there to destroy it though their Titan got owned by EU forces so they only have ground vehicles and some gunships. Along with all their kits.
Titan AA should be functional to.
But they should make so that the Titan AA can't fire down on the infantry because that would make it to hard.

And why would the EU titan attack an island, how could that possibly fit the storyline?

I'd put a lot of stationary guns all over the place on wake to combat the titan, plus extra airpower for the PAC.  The rationale for being there could be maybe something like an ore deposit was found underground somewhere on the island.  It could be valuable for fuel or whatever.  Also, as each flag on Wake would have a missile silo, the closer the Titan comes to the island, the quicker it is destroyed, unless the the bulk of the team is on the ground capturing the silos (in which case not as many would be manning the deadly guns).  I don't know....it might work...

Who's to say it didn't get owned by the Chinese, and it was left there as a monument?  You mean, we couldn't fit a storyline around something other than teh US ftw!?  The story could be that the Chinese buried some cool technology below the ice (something that would help a world covered by ice) and both parties are trying to kill themselves over it, so they can be in control of the process.

It would be a cool map, what with it being completely iced over, and being able to drive anywhere, though it would be best if the water could have receded so the Island is bigger, and more elevated--kind of a king of the hill battle...

So you're telling me there are people THAT concerned with maintaining the proper storyline of the game that they actually care where the map takes place?  Who gives a shit?!  It's not like there is a single player version....hell, I never even bothered to look at the storyline.  It means dick to me...and it has absolutely no bearing on how I play the game.  Or where I play it for that matter.

I'm the same way.  When I'm tea-bagging n00bs, the last thing on my mind is a storyline.  Its not like BF is an rpg.  That said, I don't think its inconceivable that the Essex got sunk near wake and that some kind of secret technology, or rare, valuable resources is nearby (to justify having the map in 2142).

sorry, but no ice. if you really care about the story line, no ice would have made it as far as wake. cool idea, sure. but it would be the same wake basically.

even better.  Maybe add some ice floes for atmosphere, but keep the wreck of the essex, with maybe a portion of the bow sticking out of the water or something like it.

The PAC, desperate to defeat the EU in the Mediteranean, sought to make a pact with the devil, and he gave them the coordinates to find the mythical J-10...an aircraft so powerful, it not only killed soldiers, but the people controlling them.  In real life.  (The devil, in exchange, wanted an electric heater...hell had frozen over sometime in 2141 due to... subterranean glaciers)

Obviously EU high command does not want this, and has warranted complete and utter destruction of Wake Island, and any facilities the PAC may be hiding in, with full support of In-bound Titans.  And, if the J-10 does surface, completely and utterly vaporize it, for fear of it falling into *gasp* the hands of a skilled pilot whore from 130 years ago.

my story is better.

Lol.

Why do people want another snowy map? Doesn't anyone miss the world when it was somewhat green? If (and we better, damnit) get a Wake map, it should be green!

Yeah that would be great. But what would be even better is fully destructable scenery like, blast the ice with a rocket and it would blow up a patch or something. Then fill it with lots of glitches so you can go under the ice and stuff and swim right over to the base and do some more glitches and kill everything. w00t!
