Poll
What map cycle do you look for when joined a public ranked server?
| Infantry only City Maps (Karkand, Jalalabad etc.) | 25% | 25% - 27 | ||||
| City Maps w/ Vehicles (Karkand, Jalalabad etc.) | 17% | 17% - 18 | ||||
| Air/Vehicle Maps (Dalian Plant, Daqing Oilfields etc.) | 22% | 22% - 23 | ||||
| Special Forces Day Maps (Warlord, Ghost Town Surge etc) | 15% | 15% - 16 | ||||
| Armored Fury/Euro Force | 5% | 5% - 6 | ||||
| Other (Post below) | 13% | 13% - 14 | ||||
| Total: 104 | ||||||
Damned hard choice to make....
Offhand I would say it depends if it's an IO server, and what size maps. It also depends on the number of players.
Dalian: Is VERY good if you have 20+ players, and is even excellent at up to 64 players. The small map is VERY good for IO.
Wake: Meh... I dont like it personally, but I know others do
Karkand: Not so fun as IO (unless it's small/medium), loads of fun if the server is full, NOT so fun if it isn't.
Daqing: Dont like the large versions, small map is fun though. Not very good as IO
Shonghua: Nice if you have a full server, especially the medium sized map. Not so good as IO
Zatar Wetlands: I dont think anyone likes that map.
Sharqi: IO is good. Small map is too imbalanced. Can be played with many or few people on the server for larger maps
Jalalabad + Oman: Large map is not good for IO. Normal play is decent if you have at least 50% players online.
Mashtur + Kubra + Dragon: IO is fun for small/med map. Normal play is decent if you have many players on a large map.
Fushe: Cool as small/med map, very good if you do not have a full load of players. Not so fun as IO
Clean Sweep: Not good as IO. Small map is too imbalanced. Fun starts with at least 50% player load
SF: No night maps is the norm. Though night maps can be really fun as IO. Iron gator pretty much sucks as IO on the med/large map. Other than that... I dont think there are enough SF players to justify more servers. You need a VERY dedicated player base to get it up and running.
EF/AF: Great wall is TONNES of fun as small map and IO. Though in general, a lot of the EF/AF servers are gone, so like SF, it may be tough to find a decent player base. But UNLIKE SF, you CAN put the maps in your rotation, just "bundle" them together so you have regular BF2 maps a lot, and AF/EF a bit. This way you wont loose too many players to the fact that they dont have AF/EF. Many players DO, but not all, so only pick a couple of AF/EF maps.

It depends.

A rotation like FULLCONTACTWAR's.
Well, It looks like it may have been a mistake to not put SF Night Maps in, as I love them too. I just didn't put them in because I thought only a small number of people would like them because of system requirements, noobs, wtc. Obviously I was wrong. If I get a lot of 'Other' votes saying SF night maps, I guess I'll add them to the tally of SF Day maps too. Sorry about that goof up with the poll.
What is FULLCONTACT WAR'S rotation?

IMO this would be the perfect map rotation as i love city maps but i like whoring helos too
karkand/dalian/jalalabad/sharqi/karkand/dragon valley/jalalabad/ daqing oilfields/karkand/kurba dam/jalalabad/wake with vehicles i might add
i reckon the city maps and wake is one of the best rotations.
But SF day is simply awesome.....

i only play on my favorite servers <3
The problem I thought we would have with mixed map rotations is that if it switched to an air/vehicle map, we'd lose all the ground pounders or if it switched to infantry only, we lose the vehicle drivers. I thought it would be best to stick with one dedicated map rotation so we could get a good base of players that would remember our server and come back all the time. There was thought given to making a schedule and having 2 or 3 different map rotations over the week, but I don't know about that.
A tie? We need more votes!
Night or day SF maps, I love em both. Some of the 16 player versions of the less popular maps are actually quite a lot of fun IO.

Usually these days, I'm wanting to just continually play a specific map so that's what I'll look for. Typically either Sharqi, Karkand or Warlord.
Otherwise, I'll just hop on a server running a random rotation.
