Why is it that I hardly ever get to play Jungle maps like Tad Sae, Bi Ming, and Operation ghost train?

I love the way that you can hide a full squad and get so clsoe to the enemy that they litteraly walk past/over you - especially in Tad Sae (had a great round where the chineese were holding us off by hiding and ambushing as we walked past with their automatic weapons D

Thats true, every time I join a game it's either Kashan Desert or Bashra, i've only ever done one jungle map as the Brit's and it was great, an ambushers paradise.

I'm just sick of the ratio of desert/arid maps to other maps to be honest, seems like this should change for .9 hopefully though.

Oh God yes!! More infantry jungle maps.. Back in the shit again boyz!!

Jungle is ok, but for me city maps are the best. Sometimes you just don't see enough action on jungle maps.

And I don't like the way so many forest/jungle maps are ruined by the new AAS and it's massive cap zones.
Muttrah is so popular because it just uses the old system and has proper CPs, I hope the devs go back to this kind of format.

My Favourite maps are the desert maps, i don't like the jungle maps there to claustrophobic ,and all the grass that alway permeate them is very annoying and pretty bloody useless.
Seriously Jungle maps need a whole lot of agent orange in order for me to like them at least to kill the grass.


That just my opinion though.

I want more jungle map rotations. Every time i join a server its either the russian maps, khashan or qinling. Don't get me wrong i love Khashan and qinling as long as i get to fly a helo, but i can't rember the last time i played a jungle map, or some of the insugency maps like korengal valley , of Fallujah.

Your right.. The AAS system doesn't work as it should be and the big CP's are a mistake as well imo. Given these problems are fixed jungle maps would be awesome again.

I agree with OP, i personally love jungle maps, but as an admin whenever i suggest such maps to be played next there is often a collective groan from the server.

I think its cos too many people like to have something big & shiny to play in.. all infantry maps seem to be less popular.

But we actually need real jungle maps, Bi Ming & TadSae etc are IMO not dense enough. I want maps were if you stay prone you never get spotted.

I want a big bad Mao or Jungle Fever remake... pleasssse

Vietnam style is the best getting tired of MEC and the stupid cities.

Grass draw distance is also an issue as people with low settings have a large advantage in jungle maps, but not so much in the desert/city ones.

^^ this issue has been fixed i believe.... I think the DEV team can make grass now render to their desired distance. (its not the BF2v grass but specially made, not sure if it has made it into any present maps... but i believe it is in maps in the making.)

It is ready for maps in the future, but the current jungle maps do not have it yet that I am aware of, and people may be already wary due to past issues even when they have added it.

Its on Fallujah.

would be nice to have a jungle map with air support rather than just infantry

I love jungle maps. Sadly most people start running scared right off the server the second they see a jungle map inbound. Sadness....

Well I promise you we will at the very least be making a solid effort to introduce some more mature Jungle themes in the future...

Agreed. I am sick and tired of the all desert rotation that so many servers are running. The closest I ever get to a jungle map is Op Barracuda, and that's if I'm lucky enough to be on a server that runs it.

What would be really awesome is if we had a dense jungle map with helicopters (1 attack helo, 2 trans), jeeps, and maybe 2 tanks on each side. I want large scale action with all the special elements exclusive to jungle combat (hiding in tall grass, sneaking around through the trees and such, ambushing, etc.)
