"Former Karkand Addict" hmmm... have you crossed over?? I think not from your reply. Reason: Pick any map and compare it to Karkand:

Warlord: The ONLY one that comes close is Warlord, but the chokepoints are so much that for armor to get headway it needs tactic. So what did EA do? Make a dropzone for SAS to get a hold on the situation.  Karkand the armor is at the front and can stand back and shoot and still get loads of points. Tanks in SF will not do that, if they do they will be sitting ducks. People on Karkand do not move...yeah you heard me.. they stand still either at the spawnpoint or snipe from the top. Karkand people lay at spawnpoints and PKM it out. SF maps you would not survive very long in that instance. The only time you see nade spamming is at the Palace.

Mass Destruction: Is it like Karkand? NO. More like SHarqi, it has two helos' and a damn good map, uses all kits. Karkand? Not one bit. Moving along.

Surge: Not even going here, nothing like Karkand. Moving on.

Ghost Town: Most snipers go here because everything but the middle flag can be capped by choppers, the choppers are the ownage in this map, again nothing like Karkand, yeah theres a slight Karkand whoreage, but it can be overcome with teamwork, there isn't any teamwork on Karkand.

Night Flight: Karkand? the only thing you can say about the sameness is its PURE infantry, Karkand isnt' pure infantry. Night Flight is the best map there is, but people are too afraid to play in the dark. More like Mashtuur.

Leviathan: Its a Maze. Nothing like Karkand, hell it takes skill to fly in the dark, unfortunatly ALL flags can be capped by the chopper. More like Mashtuur.

Devils Perch: APC Whoreage in some instances but takes ALOT of teamwork, reminds me of Wake...Nothing like Karkand.

Iron Gator: Another Wake look-a-like. Pure Infantry inside, but takes skill to get inside. No nade spamming here, no "lay-down-and-rape" either, not like Karkand.

See Karkand mixes Infantry and Armor, but they mix it wrong to where the armor takes the better hand, it takes 3 shots (90% of the people) to kill a tank and when you have two together fixing each other the only way to take them out is Derka-Derka, in which you can't really do all the time effectively (I have no problem sometimes). Just like Wake where J-10's get the uppper hand, in Karkand its the armor - I don't play in metal much, but I've witnessed to where tanks are the frontrunners and the infantry realizes how good they are and stand behind (like you are supposed to do in RL). SF you would not get away with it, SF is the true infantry rules, well except on Ghost Town. Mass Destruction brings ALL aspects (except for planes because the Rebels couldn't black market any) or warfare into play, not one kit or vehicle is stronger than the other, the purest map of them all.


EDIT: Night Flight is the ONLY PURE infantry map, let me say it again.. there is one BMP, that's it. Yeah you can attest that it has trucks, but eh....
