Second Assault Impressions...

[Kilo]

Metro is just like old times....unplayable at 64 players. 32-48 isn't too bad though.


Still pissed they brought Oman back over Karkand...

is it only me, but I got terrible rubberbanding and serious lack of hit markers...in general the game was acting pretty weird. enemies would suddenly appear then disappear. oh, also lots of fps ups and downs. I am checking how mantle works now.

I've said nothing but negative things about Second Assault, time for some positive!

Caspian looks beautiful! Loving the autumn look.
Firestorm looks great too. The AH heli seems to stay up longer then usual.
I have nothing nice to say about Oman.
Metro: ...

Dat AS VAL (It maybe slightly, okay, extremely OP)
F2000: ???
GOL Magnum: ???

as far as mixed warfare maps, basically all of them that were out by the end of BF2 vastly surpass every BF3 or BF4 map that attempts similar styling. I would love to see pretty much any of those maps (other than Oman, which I'm kinda tired of having played it since BF2 demo) over what we've been getting. The only thing that gets close to those maps is Golmud and maybe Altai or Dragon pass, which still don't even feel close to some of the great battles we had at GC on Zatar or Fushe or Daqing or Dalian.

One can dream....

As to being on topic for the thread:
-Metro is still metro, even with more paths it's too "laney" for my tastes, so I still hate it. If I wanted an infantry only map, I'd prefer something like dawnbreaker than a bunch of tunnels. Still same flags in the same spots, just now there's like maybe 2-3 more paths for a couple people to LMG up and just camp anyways. Didn't really change.

-Caspian I really liked actually. The autumn colors and new border walls were a nice touch, and the few extra ways into the D hill were cool, and I think it will play out well here. Still problems with the AA being able to just basecamp without any issues whatsoever, but that's mainly because the AA is still ridiculous and the attack chopper still flips over when a light breeze hits it.

-haven't played firestorm or oman yet, but I'm kinda tired of oman (as listed above) and firestorm I'm not hopeful for unless they spread out the flags a bit. If the flags are in the exact same spot (which I expect), I'll probably still feel "meh" about it.

Exact same place if Im not mistaken, I played a few rounds.

They kinda fecked up my spot in Metro to defend the "A" objective in the 2nd set of mcoms.

That, plus no Karkand which would make way more sense than Firestorm (3 vehicle maps, 1 infantry map, not even voted by community) makes me cry a lot

Strike At Karkand NIGHT TIME (real night, not like death valley) with some powerful lights on the streets (to try to avoid ppl using 100% brightness) would have been perfect.
