If people wanted it enough there could be a 0.5 ~ 0.75 community match in the future. Or an even older version.

The Devs have managed to purge as much vanilla out of BF2 as they can. Fun games were had at Zatar but I won't miss it, the PR mapping team can do better.
CodeRedFox:
They were removed because PR is trying to move away from vanilla maps. End of story.

Wasn't it bugged in 0.75? If I recall, there was a dome of death on the beach so MEC couldn't cap it ....

That wasn't a bug, MEC weren't meant to be attacking it, the beach is a free point for the US to cap.

It was a fun map to play, especially for those who love their choppers, only problem i can remeber is that it was easy to Baserape the carrier. I remember getting into the Huey for the first time on a live server on this map, taking off (shakily) and getting blown to a million pieces instantly from something on the mainland.
But apart from that their was some fantastic fun to be had, especially with ye olde vodniks driving around chasing choppers, or setting mass booby traps on the center island, then going for a cup of tea and coming back to see the pile of charred wreckage's.

We need to remake this map, or atleast something with similar mechanics.

Maybe changing things to make it "less vbf2" + some tweaking and it would be great.
I remember the massacres on the middle hill, tanks hunting other armor, crazy vodniks and so on. Sure brings back memories

Must admit, I do miss it too. It was a nice layout in general.
The best part in my opinion was trying to push across the OPEN fields after taking the middle flag. That was a daunting task right there...
The map I miss the most is Daqing Oilfields, man, what a heck of a snipe fest on that one
