I like!
It's great to finally see some truly open fields that you really need to use smoke cover and the cover hills to advance to. Buildings also seem to be much more useful since they provide great cover.

that sounds really cool. and looks it too. what sort of vehicles and stuff do you plan on putting in it? and what weapon would the troops mostly be using? cos on mashtuur its the sniper, karkand its becoming the SAW and that B*ST*RD AK THE MECS HAVE! they can run around corners shooting and rack up kills because of it! stupid full auto weapons. dang it you even gave them more choive with the burst fire too!
PS. is it true that COIP causes lag? cause all the servers with VOIP havent worked and have had lag. i was on a server this afternoon, quite a bit of lag but not TOO much but it was very annoying when trying to shoot in single shot etc. but it had far less lag than a server with VOIP.

And keep it that way
I love the fact that there is open terrain. It will make battles much more interesting.

It's looking good! Nice to see you've worked out the tools so it actually works for you. Mine just crash all the time when I get to the "Join Game" point, even when I avoid pressing the dreadded "Save All" button!

What program do you use? I have 3ds max 7, Would that work for map making?
Cause I would like to give map making a try.
Cant be THAT hard to learn... Cuase if it is I might have a hard time, I teach myself everything... who needs school.

You can make the terrain in 3DS Max. Make a height map then apply it to a plane. There's a tutorial on this site somewhere how to do it. I looked and searched but for the life of me I can't see it!

as far as i know anyone can set up a dedicated server with the free ea server software. (that person won't be able to play/test though) so who-ever wants to sacrifice their time...
