Ejod.

One of my LEAST favorite maps.

no, it isnt.

Well, maybe im being to hard on the map. It plays ok in .75, imo. But i would like to see it replaced with a bigger city map.

Why remove old maps? Its just removing varity, if you dont like the map dont log on to it, someone might love the map, it might be the only one they play. I know id stop playing PR if someone removed my favorite map. People will download PR no matter the file sizes these days, due to the fact with modern broadband it would probably take them about 5 mins anyway :D

Heathen. Section 6 time. ;P

EJODs like, the best city map out imho, Basrah is great, but its a bit too big and with fighting on the outskirts. EJOD is straight up dope. ;)

w/out tanks, the fighting is intense as you rely on small arms and APCs to clear the streets. I love not being raped by tanks, but still having the threat of a quick APC

I'm for HoH being out. I never join when that map is on.

EJOD needs H-AT removal, no point in having APCs when they are at the mercy of H-ATs. But other than that, fun as heck.

Hamgyong definitely. Also I know it isn't in there but also Kyongan'Ni. Never had a good game on the map, it seems too small and too artificial.

EJOD is great but I sort of agree its showing its age. Maybe it could do with the Muttrah .8 treatment in the future? Right now though its fine.

Yeah and what?
Even the name makes me boil so do you expect me to check if it's typed correctly? :lol:

I voted for GoO. Never had a good balanced game on that map. Otherwise, the only map that fits the PR fluff adequately is Zatar imho, all the rest can be missed.

I was sorry to see the overwhelming votes on Hills of Hamgyong to dismiss, the first option to vote is also pretty suggestive. :p I really enjoyed that map no matter which side was I on, a bit of timing and sneaking could usually get me up on the hillside while playing as USMC. (And who doesn't like target practice on the other hand? :D ) It's true however that the new system (no artillery, no mobile spawn) and the map's small size makes it near to impossible to keep it.
I find the map idea great however, and would love to see a new extended version of it!

My choices for removal:

Hamgyong, Daqing and Gulf of Oman...

Zatar Wetlands can use some changes... EJOD I think should stay for a bit longer, but yea soon there will be MASSIVE urban maps that will make EJOD kind of obsolete.

I dont understand why we are removing ANY maps. Why limit ourselves? Keep all the maps in PR, and bring back the old ones. No one says your server has to run them, but maybe someone wants to.

Then we'd have a 50Gig download... and as much as I wouldnt mind that... some people only HAVE 50 Gig HD's ;)

Hmm... ok I guess I didn't think about that little matter. But how about making a separate "map pack" download that includes old and non-essential maps. So that any community that wants to go play Street, or heck even Airport, can do so?

Daqing= boring and sad map.
Gulf= beautifull.
Hamyong= Big attack I like it. Bunkers on montains are good!
EJOD= Are you crazy... This map is great!
Zatar= Big map of fun but a little boring...

The vBF2 maps should be removed.


Maybe Hills of Hamgyong should eb replaced by another map.. something like it.


Something what gives it the same Staling-charge feeling.

I vote hills of spamyong and daqing.

I really like golf of oman, but I guess it could use some changes.

Why can´t we have map packs? I don´t want a big download as much as anyone else, but it seems a lot of maps are quite popular and it would be nice to have the option to download them separately.
