BF2S Forums Its about damn time!

I will play it. But you lose the BF2 feel when you take away most of it's gut.

yes and padders will love it

Well even though none of this is relavant to the simple question of "will servers run infantry only mode full time," I'll proceed with set of retorts.

I can't fly, simply because I never learned. It seems boring to just fly around raping people. The good stuff is on the ground.

Jets are invincible to troops on the ground. With the exception of AF wich is better. Its funny how you admit that the reason you know i don't fly is because I'm geeing owned by jets.  Because its pretty obvious that there is nothing that can be done to prevent it on the ground.

"Padders?" Flying a jet is the biggest form of padding that you can possibly perform, it just happens to be legal. I don't see how any more or less padding will be performed without vehicles.

I have played counterstrike, and it sucks.

Here is my favorite...

You have your opinions and I have mine, however, the vehicles in this game are in no way realistic. 1 round from a 50 cal is enough to take down an aircraft in real life (if placed in the right spot,) let alone an APC rocket and 20 cannon rounds. Explain to me the relavence of terroism in BF2? You need a serious reality check. All of this from a guy named "Mr. Unstoppable" that spends most of his time in a chopper. If I recall correctly, when patch 1.2 came out, it was the jet and chopper whores that were the complainers. They got their way and now I'm getting mine, so fuck off! So, I'm dealing just fine...there is going to be an infantry only mode.

So... the question still stands. Is anyone planning on running infantry only full time on their server?

Anyways, the real questions is if any servers are going to run the mode full time? Suprisingly, I see alot of people that seem to be opposed to the new mode. I would have thought that there are alot more like me that are sick of being raped by vehicles.

i have a feeling you dont know how to fly or you would not be getting pw3d from thes "invincible flying machines".

Sounds about right

Oooh for crying out loud, thats the most dumbest thing I've ever heard. There just adding a new sence of style to the game, shut teh fuck up about find another game, or go cry, boohoo.

I think most people and servers will carry on running normal,real Bf2.

You will probably get 24/7 infantry servers and servers that have normal Bf2 and have infantry only days.

Why did you repeat yourself 3 times?

Oh god i have to say this in every thread,

It's an error,how could i post 3 times in 1 minute?

Sorry,i can't help it,it's anoying enough as it is.

Meh... I know some good servers what are inf only now and they are going to be, but I am not sure do they want their name in publicity...

I think they should put in infantry caried stingers as an unlock for the at class.
But i dont know about servers

we are going to have a 44 player server for it up 24/7, hopefully with a variety of maps.

i cant wait for the infantry only mode, it should bring a whole new front to bf2.

and for those that say "play CSS", BF2 is a completely different type of fps, like none i've played before (maybe rainbow 6). The whole accuracy thing makes it way better than any normal fps, as 3-4 shots kill with a standard machine gun. And, BF2 has all squad and teamwork capabilities that also differ it from any other fps. The IO will see alot more teamwork i reckon.

I'm there I agree that its going to bring a new dynamic to the game as well as some more creative tatics.

At least we wont see people standing at the airport waiting for chopper or the planes

Sure,if you keep sitting in your tank or just run in groups of 10 towards one single flag you'll get your ass bombed back to the stoneage.
Try to go your own route and don't follow all the smurfs and you'll live longer.

Attack choppers are no real threat but a fair opponent if you are in a transport,I've taken down dozens of those.Most people I usually see rather try to run than actually fight the chopper,no wonder they lose.
And if you are so stupid to for example spawn on the TV-tower while the Havoc is circling around you just deserve to get killed over and over again.

Infantry only is only there for whiners who can't adapt to the vehicles in the game.
There would be no baserape,no "unfair vehicle" or vehiclewhores if there were actually people with some teamwork-spirit.No vehicle is invincible.

Claymores aren't fixed, so either go around (impossible on most SF flags) or give the sniper a free kill, or kill the sniper and wait 30(!) seconds and hope he doesn't pick his old kit up when he re-spawns.

Bullshit.Another noob who whines about claymores and has no idea how to destroy them.
"Duh,yeah,they are indestructable!!Unfair!" - DUUUH,they are not!!And if you wouldn't waltz blindly towards every flagpoint you wouldn't run into every mechanical ambush.

Rolling jeeps(or any other vehicle!) destroy claymores - just hop in,speed up,jump out and let the jeep roll into the claymore - destroyed(indestructable,huh?)

Bodies destroy claymores,if you kill somebody near a claymore the corpse will detonate the claymore,but I'm not sure if that works with your enemies.At least you can be sure that if somebody triggered a claymore before you they won't be any other directly near it(watch the corners,though.).

And last not least the engineer can defuse them - but you people are always busy fragging somebody so that nobody actually takes his time when capping a flag,your fault then if you run into claymores.

YOU sir, are the idiot here.

Try this...Get enough people on your team to fill every single SAM emplacement in the Gulf of Oman. Then get one average pilot . Okay its every AA vs him. See how many rounds it takes you to take the jet down.

Just for shits and giggles, see how long it takes you to  drive your vehicle inside a buildings stairway to eliminate the claymores. Also, get mr. engineer to try creeping up the stairs and diffusing the clay from the front (which would be the only possible way, except some type of glitch or lag out, in which case you would already be past it capping the flag.)

I'll keep it dumbed down for your retarded logic here and call myself a "whiner." In reality its being stoked about a new game mode. So fuck off!
