Maps

[Cain]

DICE member Daniel Matros popped into the official EA UK forums where he confirmed that the 4 maps included on the Back to Karkand DLC would be:

* Strike at Karkand
* Wake Island
* Gulf of Oman
* Sharqi Peninsula

Which isn?t surprising, as these maps were some of the most popular in Battlefield 2. Another map that would have been interesting to see is Mashtuur City ? another popular urban map. When Matros was asked whether we?ll see more BF2 maps remade, he made a ?no comment? comment.

An interesting note is that since Wake Island is included, there?s a chance the Chinese faction might be back in BF3, as the BF2 Wake Island map featured the USMC and Chinese forces pitted against each other.

What do you think? What other BF2 maps would you love to see in BF3?

They all look good to me and the only other one that I liked was the Special Forces map with the mosque in it.

I think that map pack is perfect...those were the best maps of BF2

And you know Cain is going to be defending or attacking the TV Station on Sharqi.

Taking a second look at the maps I'll have to agree with Cain that they should have included Mashtuur City. I'd swap that one in and take Gulf of Oman out.

Hopefully they'll make more in the future and the first one we see is Mashtuur City.

getting onshore on Wake Island was always a challenge and fun when you got a foothold and captured your first base.

I loved Wake island....with the new engine and look of gameplay, it will be an insane map

The problem with Mashtuur is that it could be quite one-sided. If you got a decent squad in the blackhawk the US team would dominate the map.

I would like to see some of the SF maps, especially the night ones. I'd like some of the SF goodies too, like night vision and zip lines...

that was true until they nerfed the Blackhawk then it stopped being an issue

Soooooooo this is going to be 15 bucks after release? Because I don't like pre-ordering. And one thing, I don't see how Paid DLC will work out on dedicated servers. Makes little sense to me.

After the nerf the blackhawk was worthless...

They had to nerf it. Before that if you had two engineers healing the Blackhawk, it could not be shot down.
