Why do you love the battle islands?


I the battle islands because its cloacker CE heaven. When ever im at the battle islands I rack up tons of boomer kills. Mainly because of all the open area so grunts are taking cover behind tress and such only paying attention to whats ahad and not whats behind them

I like them because they are smaller and since I like smaller fights if the island is not being zerged all of the people that are there won't have to go 30 minutes before you find an enemy on that island. And I like Nexus becase it encourages foot zerging which = easy kills for my mosquito but if we don't have the base then I'll usually just fly around and when I die I'll just stay in the tower doing nothing.

I havn't really fought on Acension at all, mostly on Desolation but I love the Battle Islands for many reasons:
-battles are quick: bases can be gained and lost extremely quickly
-varying terrain: cliffs, flat terrain, tons of trees, anything that varies
-small: smaller islands mean less walking around
-emphasis to use vehicles: in these islands, you are dead without a vehicle (especially Desolation)
-and the cloaking points you mentioned above

I only like Nexus because it's infantry ownage. Especially when you have an Aurora. I remeber yesterday me and two outfit mates went around and around the dropship center mauling infantry in the handfuls. Racked up a lot of xp that way.

I dont like Extinction. The battle are way to long, the gains are way too little. Snipers everywhere, friendlies everywhere. Cloakers everywhere, enemy grunts from every direction, much to unorganized for my tastes. The only fun I get from that island is spamming plasma nades down heated tower battles with my thumper.

Desolation is nice, mauled a lot of enemies with Aurora by plunging into bases once the CE and the turrets were down. Killed some tanks, ran away from tanks, took down aircraft. General fun.

Havn't been to Acsension yet. Should be good though.

I love them because they're little islands and i seem 2 be good as a cloaker there. Also, ZAYZAY, at that tower today was really fun.
Oh yeah, Any NC Markov Infiltrators that wanna help me and ZAYZAY make an outfit?

I like the islands cause I get to you medium assault for actual assaulting versus just being on a base wall firing on troops below.

I concur. I don't mind new content but I also don't like 3 way battles which is what these islands promote

ZAYZAY I remember your name from markov (i'm VS sniper, hehehe) I don't remember why i remember your name, I think its from oshur right before the end. Whatever

Anyways, they're cool, I haven't faught on ascension, but the rest are cool. Sweet ass sniping. but i kinda miss oshur, that had great sniping. (I liked the cliffs by Izha) and the global map is a little odd, but I'm getting used to it =P

I like them because it get's the CR5's all in a twist when we ignore the rest of the world.

*WE'RE LOSING THE WHOLE WORLD BECAUSE YOU MORONS ARE ON THOSE STUPID ISLANDS!"

"yeah, but we're WINNING those islands" *snipes the hypocritical cr5 in the back of the head* *looks innocent*
