A map maker for BF will be released with the 1.2 patch.

What I want is a discussion as to the best war time campaigns that would make a good collection of maps.

No model maker would mean that World War 1 or 3 maps may be out for the time being :(

Yay! My 'Home' map!

Or...

A dogfight map with truckloads of planes, no tanks, a few jeeps and a smattering of AA flak cannons. The general layout should be deep, winding valleys and high, rolling hills for some top seat-of-the-pants evasive action.

Stick a bomber in there, too.

Cool...

Ooo Summo, and canyons you can only fly through on your side, then laugh as the enemy on your tail fails to realise this and loses his wings.:D

Speaking of that, have you sen "Valley Run" for Operation Flashpoint?

No shooting, just 4 sports cars and a series of checkpoints. I was pleasantly surprised.:)

Battle of Britain map would be good, although a bit flat

A decent high action beach map, instead of the omaha it has now, not exacly action packed.

A good one to do, would be Ramelle, based on the final scenes of Saving Private Ryan.

Maybe a Pearl Harbour map, giving the Japs lots of Planes, but in order for the US not to be ready for them, maybe a delayed spawning for them, so the Japs can be in the planes and almost on top of the base, before the US spawn and can start panicing :) running to the AA guns, what little planes they have and of course try to get the ships, out of there before they sink.

What about the battle for Kohima, in Burma?

Apparently, no-mans-land in this battle was across a tennis court! and the only way into the village for the reinforcements was by crawling along a ditch!
(must have been hell :()

Improving the existing maps and making them slightly more historically accurate would be my first project.

Berlin for example should have the Germans on the retreat. Have a dustbowl style map where the Russians have to advance to a certain point, and then the map changes slightly with the Germans spawning further back and the Russians further forward. Although I doubt changing spawn points mid-game will be possible :(

Stalingrad needs some work. I imagined more piles of rubble to hide in, and artillery fire and air strikes constantly peppering the city.

Deformable terrain would be nice too. I want to see a chunk of that building fly off when I blast it with a tank. And a flamethrower class, to clean out those bunkers.

Gah.. gone a bit off track :(

I'd like to see WWI trench warfare, use of machine guns running the trenches and general over the top fun. No planes, tanks or jeeps, just artillery at the back and lots of fog :)

Also would like a Koeran War Campaign taking of hills etc.

Stalingrad was only the railyard which was a shame, would been nice to have pitch battles in the square or perhaps bombing runs trying to get across the Volga.

There are so many battle arenas out there not just from WW2 but WW1, Korea, Vietnam etc etc. (Hell even the Falklands ...)

OMG!!111 The Dirty Dozen Chateau. Nice cosy tight map germans on the insided, allies on the outside. Two spawns each, germans 1 inside and one far away for reinforcements.

"number 1, lots of fun"
"number 2, kill sumoo" (?)

err, sorry gone mad now

Wonder if Colditz or Stalug Luff 9 (Or whatever it was called) could work. Tunnels for the English and Americans to try and escape from the camps.

Maybe a new escape gametype.

Plus when the next set of tools is released we could put motorbikes in and ride around Steve McQueen style! :)

Just had a great idea, right?

Lets make a map which is basically two forts facing opposite each other with a bridge connecting them. We can have, say, a flag in the enemy basement that you need to get too and return to, for example, your snipers balcony.

We could call it 2 Forts.

It would rock \o/

With a sordid past and a way with the ladies, Hooker does what he can to keep the streets clean. His selfless devotion to the practice of police work sometimes clashes with the wishes of Captain Sheridan, and even with Hooker's fellow officers. This doesn't keep him from being one of the most well-respected officers on the entire LCPD force, however.

TJ (together with Urban) is like Q2DM1, only for AQ2 :)
