They mention Wake Island in the news release. Boats would be nice in BF2142. We haven't seen that yet.

I vote that they add more gunships to titan mode.

*Gunship whore*

Yes - even more gunships would be awesome (if Inquisitor is willing to fly me around), otherwise they would suck.

To be honest, I would like it if they made a Wake Island type map, possibly a hovercraft type APC or just left it so that you had to use air transports or swim.

Wake Island sounds cool. maybe some underwater action, or instead of Titans, it would be aircraft carriers.....lol
But, more interesting would be something like assault lines, but you have to have amphibious assaults on the island against some dug-in artillery, gun emplacements... hovercraft would pwn...
also, maybe a scaled down version of a gunship, a solo craft. like a flying hachi, but without the turret....
anyway, this is all speculation... all we can really hope for is that they fix what needs to be fixed and add something that doesn't Munson everything else....

and new promos mean more unlocks

It really wouldnt take much. If we were to get a new faction, new unlocks may not be a part of the mix. New stock weapons and vehicles are really just reskins at heart.

For boats, Ive always just wanted to control the static boats you see on every map. The small boats like the ones you can jump in on tunis, campG, and cerbere. Have 2 seats: a driver and somebody controling a 2ndary tank-like m-gun on the back in place of the crane. All the while, infantry could just climp on and use their firearms and such.

For aircraft carriers, their could be a "scenario" like map where the hover jets on the titans could be damaged so that the titans are floating on the water's surface. Their is a disadvantage for the eu though...since the Sir.Community's wake 2008 is going to be with 1.5, it will include neko's which can hover on water(i think) so when we start playing...doesnt that mean we could circle the enemy defences too easily with a TANK? Except for the fact that we might be at risk of getting pwned by gunships...

Yeah, i thought it all out...and quite a while ago, too.

I was just thinking: it's the new ice age, so probably no (floating) boats. Probably just the speeders from NS, although that is of course content that you'd have to pay for because it's NS.

The patch would probably only have the stock waepons and vehicles in it. EA isn't going to give away new content for free....

As much as everyone has a certain disdain for walkers, I wouldn't mind seeing a new variant. Preferably more long range, anti-armour orientated, with very little, if any, anti infantry/air weaponry. *cough*Vulture*cough*

And a new gunship would be nice, though slower (slower than a transport), heavily armoured, 5 man, bristling with anti-infantry machineguns and unguided rockets. A flying goliath if you like, without the regeneration. *Cough*Terminator Ariel HK*Cough* Give the SAAW a reason to be fielded much more often.

Just ideas to throw into the mix really...

They could replace the walker guns with a single Rorsch s8.

1.50 Patch Update:
EA - ::Battlefield Franchise::

so wake island and anzio (renamed: Operation Shingle) will be the new maps...guess no new weapons or vehicles and surely no new faction....

I'm most excited about widescreen support (now I have an extra edge over the enemy ) I'm also excited about the air transport pod movement coming back (we can pod bomb again!!!!)

The no vehicle option would make camp gibraltar a LOT more fun.
I want to see a titan game with no vehicles.

No vehicle option?

Suddenly Belgrade and Berlin look appealing again.

Edit: And Bravaria too, once the EU walk up the hill.

Belgrade and berlin without vehicles would make them actually good.

I can just imagine port bavaria...PAC snipers and MGrs up on the hill raping all the orange and black eu noobs walking up the white hill. Rofl.

End round score: 300 - 0
