Three new maps, nothing about a map maker.

This makes me a little sad.. EA includes a low map selection with their release, include absolutely nothing in terms of a map maker for the general community to enjoy, and then release very little extra in terms of maps for a fee of $10.

It makes me sad

Sounds like COD2 which really makes me sad

Looks like there is realistically nothing new.

i watched the trailer on fileplanet... it has a hover jeep (like the nekomata but faster and has a gun turret on it) and supposedly the goliath will be in it

basically all they add are a few maps, a new unlock part if you have completed an entire column of a class, and 2 new vehicles. why isnt it a free patch? we will never know...

They saw how much money can be earned with subscription style games and try to get their share of it. I'd blame it on WoW ;-)

Very true Phil....very true. I'm not sure I even want to invest any money into the booster. BF2142 was a huge disappointment for replay ability. Neat concepts introduced, but too repetitious and not enough maps. Now all the focus seems to be on these new weapon platforms and some new badges.

Why not just throw us all in an empty room and tell us to "Use your imagination and invent something to hide behind!" LOL

I hope EA/DICE make up for their initial product.

we still could be happy that ea doesn't get monthly payment from us for the ea account

or paying for playing on their ranked server...

I like it too, but I'm sick of the same old maps after about a month. 3 more do little for me.

Hmmmmm.........By golly Baker..........You've done it again. The very best off the cuff idea for our next GC tourney.

Round rooms and the flags will be in the corners of course.

Wow...............let's get this copyrighted before EA and Dice wander by and steal the whole concept.

I think that happened prior to BF2, squads and some game structure looked a lot like GC back when I first played it.

Don't put it past the Nerds of War.........or........Medals....Who needs em?
