no <3 for insurgents and british?

i dunno it just seems every map on the rotations of the most populated servers either exclusively plays us -v- china/mec and and rarely british/insurgents -v- other

i can understand street getting taken off rotations because of the issues with it but it seems everyone is avoiding british/insurgents like the plague.

Well I for one don't have the hardware to run most of the maps with the British or Insurgents
Basrah is a pretty laggy nightmare
Pretty much any jungle map bar Hamyong Hills is totally inplayable for me as well - a few of which now have the British

My story ... and I'm sticking to it

Same here. ghost train and hamyong hills can lag pretty big.

I actually really like the insurgent and british factions it's just the maps are so damn laggy for me (as others mentioned). Granted my computer sucks, I still play them ^_^ (Hills of Hamyoung is AWESOME)

Practicaly all jungle maps and that big one with the A-10 and insurgents lags like hell and i thought my compy was good........

I love the British weaponry oh ghost train is the one map with brits i can actually run ok i think

from what i've heard, Hills to Hamgyong is going to have the Brit forces swapped out for USMC since the mapmaker wants it that way.

Hopefully there will be more Brit maps come next release, and optimised ones at that!

The plan for Al Basrah is to have Brits just as soon as they have all the equipment for it.

Yea I always wondered why they put USMC on basrah when IRL the british are there.

It might be because the Brits are the only side with scoped rifles and the insurgents have unlimited sniper kits, so possibly the admins consider them imba...

The only brit map i ever get to play these days is operation ghost train and this is REALLY RARE. The Brit team is almost perfectly done (except for the OP spec force weps ofcourse). Hills of Hangyongpongchongfong(i forget exact spelling) seems to be the only decent lagger for me. Street was a beauty, especaily when they changed the insurgents from having Hunters and replacing them with MGers. I mean, lets face it. The Insurgent team seems to chose hunter like its Nilla all over again. Maybe a requested/Pickup class? Most insurgents would be AK-wielding eXtreeeeemists, firing from the hip while chanting enlessly. Fair enough there are probly a great amount of snipers in todays middle eastern hotspots, but do they all have to wield the SVD? I'd like to see mainly crusty bolt action rifles in there, even from the Nam era.

...mongol...

Yeah a good sniper doesnt always need a scope in real life you can snipe with an iron sighted AK from a 3story hosue in fallujah no problem just dont blame me when the AT4s come flying at you...
