Theres a PLA FAV on Jalalalabad too. Discovered it while playing DPV/FAV jihad tag. Spawns at the fountain.

Can't see me playing this map much.

Island in the bay/gulf (much like globefish said). Runway on island. Island starts out neutral. Bomber spawns there when island is captured. There'd be fights to capture the island, mostly because of the ease of taking out armor convoys afterward. Ideally there'd be an extra APC or two, just to help in that task (capping the island airfield).

The Harrier jet would fit perfectly on a small island. Wouldn't even need to have a runway.

Anyone else notice the fact that the installer says
"Battlefield 2 - Map Pack 1" ?

This might mean more maps in the future, who knows

Hmmm...on that note.

Both people should get a bomber. The attack chopper they forgot should be on the island.

Are there more maps released that do not come with the retail version other than this one? Anyone know of a link where I can download all the maps released?

Thanks!

I just played it and it is..meh. More FAV's, Vodniks, or Hmmmv's for the people who aren't lucky enough to get a tank. I had to request for a vehicle like 10 times.

OMG guys seriously. We have been begging for EA to give us some support, no matter what it was, for months now. I AM SO GRATEFUL THAT WE GOT THIS. EA knows that the BF2 community exists and that they want more content, and we are starting to get more and you all trash it. I dont care about the ads. We got a new map HOORAY!!!!!!!!!!

All the maps should be overflowing with FAVs in my opinion. No one likes to wait, and it's not like they are a massive tactical advantage.

How do they make this map, and not an urban map??

Everybody plays Karkand, and enjoys that style better!! Why not make an Asian style urban map??

I dont get it! There are PLENTY of tank/air maps in this game. . . .

Lastly. . . .Why not include another Special Forces map?? Insurgents vs. Seals anyone!!!

Either way, I am glad they havent completely forgotten the people who play this game.

About time. Bf1942 had heaps of free map additions, BF2 has had one, and that was a remake.

As for the ads, meh kind of expected. I honestly don't care that much. If Intel is sponsoring us getting new free maps then it'd be great if they did it more.

I get the feeling that EA/DICE didn't make this map.

Given the sucky layout and plethora of in-game ads, I think Intel made this and paid EA/DICE to include it. EA said "Sure! We'll take your money!"

Also, I can't understand why in the hell beta maps are ranked.

It's easier to do a desert map that it would be a china urban map (although billboard ads everywhere wouldn't look out of place in a city) since you don't have to skin buildings etc just 'make it look sandy'
