I had to say. When I joined I was really shocked. It just... blew me away. It was some weird movie moment.
I joined Brits, I spawned in and as a was walking out of main base with a handful of other guys the chinook came in for a lovely landing, pivoting just before touching down, and at the same moment a Harrier did a fly by.
Epic. Best map ever.

The A-10 seems to take a little bit of collision damage soon after it spawns, but other than that, it looks great!

You don't actually get it, do you

I mean, you do, but you don't get that it's completely a joke.
Open up the Dev thread on this, Whino, I wanna see what's happened

The first thing that tipped me off though was the file size. Though, that might be because I'm used to dling single maps of various sizes because of the com matches and some other bf2 tests
Though, I'm sure most people unaccustomed to that wouldn't have noted it
EDIT: GOOD GOD IS TIRAK A MOD? Now THAT's got to be an April Fools joke, no? NOOOOOOOO!

Say goodbye to seeing any suggestion threads up for more than 10 minutes

ok so to answer my question the real beta map will be coming out sometime this week or the whole beta testing thing was a April fools joke I know the map was due to it saying April Fools and also Rhino Did This but will we be able to download the real beta map sometime this week.
Thank You,

I don't think so. Since I've been playing pr, they've never actually had open beta maps, so I wouldn't expect it to be. And if you remember the 0.85 changelog turmoil, they like to keep their secrets until the release

To tell you the truth I think that thats the reason people werent getting angry. It didnt sunk in yet that they WONT be playing Sangin until its release with the next update. I think we (I did as well) where just thinking: Oh ahah! What would you expect, early acces on april fools hmmmhmmmmmm! Lets just wait till friday evening.
Thats why you dont get the: OMG WTF aaaaarggh! responses I guess.

Yea, but you didn't get the OMG WTF responses on the first changelog, either. Maybe by the 3rd it wasn't funny any more, but otherwise people played along for a while. And mind you, it hasn't even been a day old yet

Not another insurgency map! This makes me angry. BTW, the pictures look great. Keep up the good work DEVs.
Note*- I don't like insurgency but I do support the creations that the devs make.

I'm not sure why its taking so long to get done with the chinook... it doesn't seem that complicated.
Map has been thoroughly tested.
