More British Maps

I have only ever had the chance to play as the British on Operation Ghost Train- and I love it. However I have not seen any other British maps and the server's that do play Ghost Train are few and far between.

I'm sick of constantly having the US in practically EVERY map.

An even number of British and US maps would be great.

How many British maps are there anyway? since i've only ever seen one.

gulf of aquaba
moskiyve ( sp?)
Hills of Hamyong ( bit of a lag pig for me )
I believe there are more in the pipeline and remember that lots of DEV's are British so I'd think they want them too.
I noticed watching a COD3 trailer and heard the same British voices in that game.
I thought the PR Brit voiceovers were from the DEV's themselves ?

hey. You need to remeber that PR is in its early days for the brits still. These where the first brit maps, and the only one of these maps that was acturly planned for the brits was OGT (Op Ghost Train). All the others are maps that where planned for US, but where quickly swapped over to brits to fill the need, or where BF2 custom maps that we have permission to use that we have swapped over to the brits.

Now we do have a good team of mappers on the crew, 90% of my mappers i have tasked with brit maps. They will take some time to make but by v1, I hope to have the same amount of brit maps, as US maps if not more!

The thing you need to remember at the mo is that we only have the brit infantry ingame, so we can only make infantry maps for the brits. Once the brits have all the tools of the trade in, we will be able to make many more "combined arms" maps etc

v0.1, with only very few tweaks, I dont know, I wasnt on the team

I joined the team at around v0.25s release, ready to release my first PR map (Muttrah) with v0.3 for the mod. v0.3 was really the only version where we had maps in, developed by Devs on the team. v0.25 had BF2 custom maps in, but they normaly dont really suit PRs way of gameplay.

the brit voices are from special forces/euroforce arent they? oh and i think the grunt is a PR guy, who actually said the wheel-barrow spotted line hahaha

All the British maps are fine. Why the hell does everyone want the fliping americans 24/7?. Not only that, but i dont get to become a matar often enough under the banner of the Insurgent forces. WHY people!? WHY?!

I can understand if its bugged up. i know Street map was having some problems, but the rest are fine. It'd better not be something stupid like ' i dont like the walking on ghost train, so its going on my server

'.

...mongol...

I just don't like the British weps. Call me whatever you like, but the M16 just calls to me. I love the weapon, I love the sound, and I love that It can't jam in this game so that I don't have to deal with that.
*Edit* I wouldn't mind other British Maps or Insurgent maps though. Too much of a good thing IS possible.

For me the British weapons are a perfect balance between the auto AKs and the accurate m16s, with the added bonus of the optics on the rifleman.

I've only ever played OGT, Hills of H (which lags a bit for me) and street once. Would love to see the other maps, and finish a round on street. Had to quit when I was on 15-0 and was really enjoying myself.
