What's the sound going to be like over the map when a couple of squads start fighting in there?

Is there going to be some wierd, distracting audio going on? Muttrah is nominally a small map and a large building like that is going to make for some unusual environmental conditions.

Wheres our sound engineer to comment on what changes will be needed or how they expect things to run.

ehhh dont think I quite understand what you are saying mrd?

I aint sure how/if sound is effected by enclosed spaces but I very much dout it is on the BF2 engine...

but ehhh, what I can tell you is Muttrah City (v2) is noo small map: http://img208.imageshack.us/img208/4162/minimapql0.jpg

A fair point. I take it all back!

Map is larger, yes.

The sound effects I was meaning, would have been more prominent with a smaller map of course.

You obviously know the sounds of firing inside a concrete/metal structure? Rifle and grenade explosions might have turned out a bit whacky with the BF2 engine. This is the first majorly large building I have seen in the game, except of course some very large hangar type structures, like Industry cp on Al Basrah. Testing a building like this is for the future of course!

more a question for the sound guys but if there is no real sound change in vBF2 maps or other PR maps with these kinda interiors (vBF2 did have thous big warehouses) then I doubt we can for this.

<sarcasm>
It's gonna be in a next release, right ?

So the chance that the chopper you're in won't dump itself right into the sea is 1:1000, then

</sarcasm>

Now what I really wanted to say:
The mosque looks awesome, so does the map !
Can't wait to play it

Nothing, that a well placed AA gun can't get rid of

Also, LBs are much more vulnerable now, so it wouldn't be such an issue to shoot them down, unless someone experienced gets his hand on one

It's not even that, it's a matter of half your damn team waiting for it to spawn or people TKing when it does spawn and all that ****.

While I like the blackhawk, it feels like driving the family station wagon around after flying the LB transport.

Sure, it might fly like a big piece of rock with a wheel glued on top, but think of the coolness factor dude! It's hard to beat 3 BHs taking off and flying away over your head on Jabal Al Burj (though the fact that you're not on them is a bit of a pain in the behind)

Good point, but I hope, we'll get some APCs and boats, so we can avoid that stuff...
