That's right! The expansion for Typhoon rising! This expansion is gonna change the game soo much

*Improved graphics and effects (Insects and morning fog)
*Squad and Clan managment
* Battle Tanks
*Dirt bikes (You can even perform jumps when you go off ramps!)
* New weapons
* Body Armour
* Hit Boxes on players. (Basic hitboxes though. You won't take as much damage if you get hit in the hands or feet)
* Lots of new maps.

With this games 150 player servers and excellent teamwork. How can I say no?

The graphics are good and there's no lag.

This should keep me busy till Battlefield 2.

:EDIT: I just found out about this today and the expansion is released in less than a month! November 16th

How so? I was just wondering if it would be shadowed by HL2.

Joint Ops is nice, but mapwise it's too big imo.

The game just gets frustrating when you fly for 5 minutes only to land and then die and do it all over again before you even get to fire a shot.

The smaller infantry oriented based maps are good though. I think the island maps are horrible.

As in it was really the only weapon worth using?

Yes. Everyone in the servers used snipers. It sucked.

That's mainly because a large multiplayer game involving large maps and 1 shot kills = bad idea.

There's a reason PS doesn't allow it.. it's balance. If you have large distances between players, naturally the weapon of choice is going to be the sniper rifle.

How does one counter a bullet to the head from 500m?
