Darn it!

Do you like my sig and avatar?

Got some nice info in there, but vehicle armor regen? And it's written like it's a good thing. Then again, looking at all the launchers and anti-armor vehicle specializations, maybe regen will be the only way you will be able to stay alive for more then 2 minutes.
It'll be interesting to see how it effects gameplay, especially on the aircraft maps. I suppose they could always nerf it - they did it with the repair rate for BF2's choppers, after all.

Nice to not see a console port, finally.

This actually looks like a proper BF2 style map.

Too many choke points. Look at the single road from the US base to the centre of the map. Perfect spot for mines and rpg teams. Even the bombing runs from the jets and helis would rape those roads easily.

Exactly

Unless offroading is really difficult...which would be unlike every other PC game out there, but it would add a nice gameplay element.

I mean honestly Aussie, in the fucking trailer it shows a big mass of tanks and jeeps and whatnot driving through a big ass open field. And you're critical of the lack of roads?

16 x 2 = 32

Sure it looks tiny on that map, but look at the length of those airstrips and see how many of those you can fit from one end to the other. It's a pretty big map. Also, check out the video, you can see things pretty well in those jet parts. It's big

2.5.

So unless they increased the length of Runway by about 10 fold then its tiny.

Do the same for Daqing (a similar looking map). It's at least 4 time as wide/long or 16 times the area.

It looks decent sized but it's definitely not Daqing kind of scale from that map.

Daqing was stupidly large tbf though

Daqing was not even close the biggest map. OOC, Kubra, Fushee, zatar and Dragon valley were far larger.

Here's my budget paint comparison of the 2 maps making the runways of approx the same length.
