Im all for taking out the jeeps, but i think the forest would be more fun with a few obstacles and cover (rocks etc.).

Great picture MagicMan!
This is a big problem on this map, it realy dumbs down the teamplay. Heres my suggestion:
- GET RID OF FAV/DPV, REPLACE WITH HUMMVEE / CHINESE CAR
- Increase spawn times on all vehicles to 10 minutes.
- Write this in map description so people realize the cars will not come back for a LONG time if they do somethings stupid with them.
I think this would help things out alot. Those 'buggies' drive around like they are INVINCIBLE. Ive had my entire squad open up on them numerous times, only to see the driver drive away completely unharmed.... COME ON!!! That thing is completely unarmored, in reality a kid with a kalishnikov would be able to take that thing out the way BF2 players drive that thing....
Its funny at first, but then you just kinda go..... hmmmm that is lame.

I personally think they should be taken out completely since why have a vehicle that will only split up your squad because it only holds 4 people. I wish the humvees could hold a whole squad since they have 2 extra shots behind the driver, but I find that most of the time they just split squads up.
Maybe Humvees can be modded to have up to 6 people in them so they could fit in the back and just stick their weapons out.
Also, the 32 player Steel Thunder has way too much armor on it especially when a team caps the flag closest to the other's main. We had plenty of AT on it, but they just kept coming and coming even after we blew them up and there was an armor graveyard outside the flag across the bridge, but the armor just kept coming. Any chance of upping the spawn times on 32 player steel if there is going to be on at all lessing the ammount of vehicles?
The 32 player steel thunder has a good make up with the foliage, farm, and woods, but the problem is that there just aren't even players to really fill it up to stop the armor or make it fun.
