I agree 'Back to Karkand' suggests the maps will all have a city/MEC theme. So Sharqui, Mashtuur and Jalalabad. In fact the hotel at the end of the gameplay video reminds me of the hotel in Jalalabad?

I can't wait to see these maps with full destruction, the streets full of objects, trash, rubble etc. It's going to be amazing! But, how the heck are they going to work destruction into the buildings? Imagine Karkand hotel if it was destructable? Are all the buildings now going to be enterable?

Oman would be nice too for jets and helos.

I'd rather have Gulf of Oman, Mashtuur, Sharqi pensiula and Kurba Damn If they aren't in it rather Karkand TBH.

Wake Island. Again ? lalala, can't I just get a package that gets Kubra Dam instead of that lalalalaty map. It's the most boring map to play on in 1942, 2 and 2142. Going from one side of tip of the island with a jeep to kill one single guy is NOT my idea of fun.

There were never any good battles fought there. I fail to see what makes it successful other than the 2 lalalalaing planes and helicopters it has.

Any chance we will see other bf2 maps converted to frostbite 2 as time goes on?

Also will the battlefield 2 guns featured in this expansion carry over to the main game or are they just for these 4 maps?

I agree. I know its already set in stone, but wake island has been done 1000 times/years too much.

OK, I kind of understand why people like Wake Island so much- it was the first map where most people played their very first round of Battlefield ever, but come on, this map is not that well designed, there are a lot more fun maps out there than this one imo.

But oh well, what's done is done I guess.

The other 3 are nice choices though!

Really make me wonder if China will not be in BF3, also aside from Wake and Oman more city fighting, small maps so far compared to the pool of larger maps availible with BF2.

Ok, so we know possibly 8 maps now- Paris, NY,Tehran, possibly Al-Basra, Karkand, Wake, Oman, Sharqi.

How are jets going to work on these maps? Wake I can see... but if they are taking about sonic booms none of the other maps really work unless they are huge? Plus lets say the city maps will not have jets, how many maps will? 2-3??? how many maps will vanilla have when it ships? Looks like it would need to ship with 10 maps vanilla to make sense and provide som diversity plus the 4 in the Karkand map pack.

The other 3 maps will have to be bought, right? Surely if enough people buy them it will be a signal to DICE to bring in more BF2 maps. Or even...1942 maps...

Bring in El Alamein and Mashtuur, and all will be right in the world. Of maps,anyway...

Nice!
Wake is big, therefore great for jets.
Gulf of Oman big, and great for every vehicle type.

I just hope the grenade spam will be less on Wake. Once you cornered the Chinese on a section of the island everyone would just be throwing a grenade. Since everyone had 3 grenades, it got bad quickly.

the one and only map I ever got a purple heart on!! the only flag we held as MEC was the control Center (first flag) - four jets bombing it constantly, mucho pain, (spawn, die, spawn, die, rinse,wash,repeat) - good times!!
