we never state the assets on a map so long before its public release but you can assume its going to be something a little like Gulf of Oman and Jabal etc.

Let me say just simply that the map pic looks amazing. The sunlight, the clouds the beaches with the shallow water and tank traps. An assault from the LHD is going to be very bloody I can already tell. I can see it's going to take coordination and less tard rushing to take those beaches if they are defended well. I look forward to the challenge and very much look forward to seeing more of this map in the future.

To Dr.Rank, Rhino and Duckhunt, a big thank you for your hard effort.

the question is why has it been changed from UK to US ? (the old news said it should be a UK map, but Dr Rank said it will be US

Main reason being that the britis in there current state dont have the correct assets to really pull off a good amphibious assault map.

The Warrior, not a amphibious APC (mainly cos its a IFV

) so there would be no good land transport for the brits. A Viking would need to be crated and I'm pretty sure that ehhh there would be lots of issues in getting one to work well and I doubt we could get the trailer part on it which it really cant go ingame without.

the merlin is having problems at the moment and is currently our only transport chopper.

no light transport choppers like the lynx for the britis which is needed for this kind of map.

all in all, the britis in there current form aint kitted out to be royal marines just yet.

When they are, its gonna be fooking awesome!! but i do agree, put US on with US vehicles, dont put the Brits on with a Littlebird/Huey as it just wouldnt work.

Will there be some real water transport this time?

Instead of only APC's?

Cause the bf2;v RIB's are a real joke.. and should not be implemented.. IMO.

Like a 350hp motor which can't go faster than around... 10 knots?!

BRING IN THE LCACs, LCUs AND SOME REAL RIBs!!!

if only EA would have brought the LCAC ingame, but not even they could get a vehicle transporter working in bf2

What we really need (If this is going to be a USMC map) are the AAVPs. Though I imagine unless one is already in development, the devs are going to stick with the LAVs.
