BF2S Forums BF2S AU Server Ideas

Well since there been no replys yet ill post an idea of mine:
Mabey have a Friday night Mod night like once a month, i havent seen many if any BF2 mod servers running BF2 Australian forces (supprising i know) but i think things like this would mix it up a bit and keep people interested.  What do you all think?

Personally, i would remove the EF maps.  Purely because not many people have it, and the server population would half (IMO) and we are after numbers are we not?

I'd like to see all BF2 and SF maps.

But I'd also like at least 3 rounds per map - the first round of a map I'm usually late to start because it takes so long to verify... 3 rounds would mean less time (for me) wasted loading and verifying. In fact that's the only reason I play one-map servers; to get rid of that verifying time.

If you can also get the map-voting thing to work (I've never seen it happen) then unpopular maps can be bypassed without taking them out of the rotation completely - i.e. there will still be a chance that people can play the night SF maps if they want to.

I hate the team swapping every round. Maybe every 4 rounds. If you go for swapping every 2 rounds, with 2 rounds per map, you can stagger the team swapping and map rotation.

When I'm playing with friends I like to be able to keep playing with them.

Sorry, garbled ranting.

When it comes out, We'll see what types of things get the most people

A friday night mod night would be good, I'd play it, make it every fortnight though

Yep Fortnightly is a good idea.

i'll be there. Even if i hate bf2, i get to own the shit out of all my bf2s aussie friends.

Keep the map rotation to BF2 and SF... I don't have AF or EF.

Hopefully we will have a SF night/day.

3 rounds per map is also great for me.

It is.

Hmmm, have to find out the days for SF as I don't own the expansion.

slight objection, but then again the carrier has a massive anti-air gun, so it sorta evens it out.

Two, actually.

Some good ideas, maybe city-large-city-large map rotation??? Keep everyone on their toes....

I would like to suggest dropping Wake Is from the map run on this server. The map is probably the most uncompetitive in the game and tends to encourage a stat padding mentality. It also tends to generate a fair amount of animosity both between teams because one teams feels they are pretty much just adding to some J10 or chopper pilots kill stats, and competition for said J10s within the team.

Jet spamming is a problem on almost all the maps - and with complete fantasy reloading and repairing with no landing or skill required  - but on this map its an institution.

I was playing on the server the other day with low player numbers - I got to the island after being killed 10 times trying and when I finally neutralised a flag - I was hit with chopper TV and rockets, j-10s, AND ARTILLARY (continuously)- a bit of over kill for 1 man - even if it was YunDog

With so few men I didnt even consider it warranted a commander

its this sort of uncompetitive game that has me searching for another server - because one sided games are boring and lame - even if your on the winning side

and players who play this style of spawn raping - jet spamming - are cowards IMO

do we want to encourage this type of player from GameArena to the BF2s server

the funniest thing is looking at their numbers at the end of the round and there getting like low 20s - LOL hardly worth spamming for numbers like that - better to go back to the noob packed GA server they came from - easy and plentiful padding there

Ok I have changed the map from Mashtuur to Dragon Valley and I'm joining now if anyones up for it.
