OKay I have actually done my fifth tour of duty with the night maps and I must say the first 4 times it blew because I wasn't used to them and the stupid green shit really deprives the maps beauty and also the night vision you actually have to time right or you might find yourself in a firefight without vision. These maps are all about teamwork. And I think thats what really people don't like them for is the teamwork and they can't see. Night Maps aren't the run-of-the-mill frag fest everyone is used to in Karkand. If you are a flyboy, you will not like them either. But if you are PURE infantry, you will see it at it's fullest.

My first map was NIght FLight. I was really impressed with this one. I figured there would be snipers everywhere like when I first bought it but actually it was like a normal game; but everyone is camo'd. Grappling hooks and zippys get a whole new dimension to this night thing.

I think everyone should try it a couple more times to see what its all about... I was actually impressed.
And to do that I have put our server to "Nights Only" for a little while.

unfortunatly you wont get many people and thats sad as i totaly agree that the night maps are good. I play on internode which has 2 "day" map and 1 all map rotation servers, and the server with night maps is usually the last one to fill up and even when there are people in it, a night map comes along and 30-50% of people leave making the games too long with not enogh combat.

Yeah, unfortunately I kinda figured the night maps wouldn't fill the first day, but hopefully we can bring it back, I had alot of fun, especially on Night Flight. It brings the game to a whole new level, almost like an expansion/booster . But I'll keep these maps up for a couple days to see what it brings. No one else has a 100% just night map rotation (well one but its only 16 player). Just need to get 10 peeps at the same time

i'll put your server in my favorites list.  i love the night maps and recently, they're all i play.

...although, i'll be moving in about a week, so i'm not sure how much playing i'll be able to do.  anyway, i'll try to stop by.

if you dont mind a UK-pinger I'll have a go on your server at the weekend?

Nope don't mind the UK at all!! Since it is a night map and mainly infantry the UK usually pings around 150, and there aren't any aircraft (I think Leviathan has the helo but no one flew it). I don't have the pinger on anyway...
One thing that night maps, is that you have to get used to the 'night vision timer'. I was riding on the quad running peeps over and next thing it was dark and it said 'I was no more'. I guess I ran into the building.. I also found on the Raider on Leviathan I was cruising at Mach3 and found myself at the wrong turn and I was floating in the water...So it can be really interesting!! I just wish they made the Night Flight map to a daytime one also, that map is the shizzle!! Well set up imho!

hey guys,

this is my first post here and i am german so my english is not very well. hope its not to hard to read and understand for you:)


i love to play night maps and i dont know why so many people dont like to play it! i will add your server to my favourits and i tell my squad to do it too. we are 3 - 5 guys playing together most the time. and we all love night maps...


but i am not at home the next 4 days, so i hope you will run night maps only the next week too!

i dont think you will have problems to get your night maps only server full...cause there are many guys like me...but i think you have to run the server long enough so enough guys know it...

i will post it in our german bf2 forum to populate it more:D


c u at n8 maps only

Okay... will do... I will keep them up for awhile to see if it fills, Like I said there is only ONE other that does the 24/7 and its only a 16 player, this one is a 32. (64 player map is too much..maybe) I really enjoyed Night FLight!! But when the server I was playing on switched to Ghost Town I quit.. That's what made me decide to put Night Maps only. I will leave up for you guys.

SO far I have all night maps at 64. I am open to suggestions. If you want 64, then 32 ( I personally don't know the difference minus one flag) then I can do..IF you want only Night Flight ,  I definately can do..I will see how it goes for a couple weeks ( maybe 3).. This weekend will be full out green screen!!

i like to play maps at 64! but if somebody want to play 32, its no problem for me. but i prefer 64!!!

i tell it to all my friends of bf2, so i hope we will have some success! but server wich play all maps ( day and night ) are cool too! i hate server which play only day maps.......

another option could be to run the 3 night maps and warlord and gost town too! this would be a nice circle of maps! so i never must look for an other server!!!!!!!

Yeah, it might take awhile, since I am at work, but for some its not the weekend.   I forgot to idle my account, sorry. Like I said its a change of pace. If it doesn't go then we will nix that server and put a 64 player.
