Most things have been said in other threads but I thought it would be worth a poll to see how many of you are enjoying IO mode as it is and if it was a good or bad idea taking out the transport craft?

What do you think?


Edit: light vehicles just means jeeps/dpv/ribs and all vehicles means jeeps, vods etc and transport helis on maps that have them (like mashtuur with no tanks)

I/O mode should mean I/O exclusive maps. not "lets just be lazy and let them use the old maps"

yea i agree with you they really should have made a IO boster pack...remake most of the maps where they are better for just infantry

IO would be come a slaughterfest for I love running guys over with jeeps. Now with no tanks or APCs shooting at me, that's all I'd use. Game has just become too boring to play the same old way.

No.  But I think on Jalalabad, the US should start out with the Lake flag.

Some of the SF ATV's would be useful on big maps, but on maps like Karkand or Sharqui, you don't need them.

No because jackasses would drive around doing nothing but looking for roadkill.  Nothing wrong with roadkill, but it would get annoying very quickly on an IO server.

its extremely easy to run people over in IO in a car, considering none of them, usually are specops, AT or engy..

yeah... jalalabad sucks when you jog for a half mile only to be hit by sniper fire.  there's no cover in the desert.

We need civilian cars, like the ones in SF on maps like surge.

Plenty of cover my friend.  If a squad works together there is plenty of cover to rush forward.

not on 16 man servers, but 32 and 64 man light with no guns could be helpful

umm. no. it does not need vehicles at all. if u had vehicles in infantry only maps, u would have ppl running other over, thus not infantry ONLY.

the only thing they need to do, and i think alot of people would agree with me, is to make the maps in infantry only, smaller maps, such as road to jalalabad, sharqi, mashtuur, (basically the maps that dont have jets in them). this means that boats wont be needed to travel from flag to flag.

another solution would be to have those minimised maps (such as the 32 man maps, which are minimised version of the larger maps, like the ones in single player) so that infantry are at close quarter combat, rather than running half the time. this way it would be a short walk to the next flag, where squads battle over flags, rather than cheaply going through the back side and taking flags, without having to battle it out.
