15 rounds per map??? That would take like 3 days to get through each map. :-0

What do you suggest? This is my first server, so I do not know what to set things at.

Start with IO, 3 rounds a map Karkand, Sharqi & Mashy.  That should draw players.

Just curious, but why are you leasing (I assume) a server when you have no one to play on it, or no agenda?  (perhaps you've always wanted to run a server).

To answer your question, you might start it out as a 24/7 map ... I know of at least one person who keeps hoping someone will start a 24/7 Songhua server.

sounds like GA2..

skip karkand and sharqi (lots of other servers offer those)
put in songhua, mashtuur, fushe and if possible great wall...
so its a fair mix of nice maps
just my opinion, of course...

If you run an IO server with out karkand you are going to have the hardest time ever populating it as 90% of the bf2 community bum the map.

And been different to others on a new server wont get it populated either.

IO, kark, sharqi and mash MAY attract players, they are favorable maps, provided that you beat out the other 300 servers that offer the same damn thing.

IO is nade spam, point whore, aimbot whores IMO.

Want to try something cool?

NO Infantry only, 4 rounds per map rotation, switch teams after every round, Friendly Fire off, Unlocks ON,  kick/mutiny vote ON,

and...

the Maps

Sharqi
Dragon Valley
Mashtuur
Fu She
Jalalabad

In that order

Thats a damn good balanced map rotation.  If you don't like the map you're on, next  couple of rounds will have a map you LOVE.  plus, it alternates between Large maps to close quarters.

So, you get tired of the long drives or the planes?  next map doesnt have either.   Its a good mix!

EDIT: it also leaves out booster maps and SF.  I love booster and SF maps, but leaving those out guarantees the largest amount of players, yet is unique enough to attract a crowd sick of the IO karkand dulldrums.

Call it Shar/DValy/Mash/Fu/Jal  so when the server list pops up, anyone who sees that map list will HAVE to be interested.  I promise!

2nd EDIT:  Wake might work after Jalalabad.......

To bad thats just about the whole BF2 community


Remember people are afraid of new things.

If you dont want io try this rotation:

Gulf, Kark, Wake.

Should draw alot of players.

I would have to say this is a pretty good idea for rotation. The server name should be something shorter and more concise. It should reflect what the maps will be having on it. For example: "Air/Armor/Urban Maps - 3 Rounds Each" I like the sound of this better. 

I would avoid FuShe or Dragon Valley togeather though. Only do one in the rotation. My vote would go for Zatar Wetlands or Gulf of Oman for air maps instead. These maps are both easier for the ground units to get around on then Dragon of Fushe while still having the jets. (And, no J10 n0ubs)

So in conclusion:

Sharqi
Oman
Mashtuur
Zatar
Jablahblahbad
Songua
Good ol' Karkand

Done deal!
