Now we know why we can't get the Airborne Specialist Ribbon - the maps that had planes were taken out...

Apparently, there were some maps taken out of SF before the final release. Some maps being:

1. Midnight Express

2. Mighty Stinger

3. Testing Ground (possible beta map?)

4. Flat Beauty

Mysterious eh?

If you have the latest editor, go to

Battlefield 2 -> NavMesh -> xpackNavmesh.bat

nice find, yet another example of EA screwing us over and rushing its release to meet deadline, removing content and then it still not being right??

possibly.. or maybe they realised the maps were severely flawed.. like being able to zipline a jet taking off.. or grappling hooking onto a refuelling jet..

or maybe they thought.. ah shit.. why would Special Strike Force teams use jets?

or maybe.. the only 3 Special Forces in the game who would have jets would be the SAS, the US Navy Seals and MAYBE the Russian Spetznaz...

but even then.. the actual spec. for. troops themselves wouldnt use them.. just the respective countries..

i dunno.. i've thought too much into it

Very interesting find. I bet you could also find the layouts for the maps in there probably. Keep looking if you dont mind.

it would have been even worse if they had released it 1 month or so after the deadline... the whole bf2 community would have cried

I don't want jets in SF so I'm hoping they don't release them.
