    I'm burned out from all the modern/realistic FPS games. I'm actually kinda missing all the WWII shooters from back in the day.

    Also, I miss submarines.

    Sea warfare would be awesome. Even adding a battleship or carrier as a spawn point (like before) except have the ship moving, and also be able to man one of the guns for some artillery-like action.

    Ability to load vehicles onto pontoon boats and onto transport choppers as well. I remember that way back with Joint Operations. It was great. Drive your jeep on a chopper, get dropped of elsewhere. Of course freefall vehicles with chutes would be great too.

    Great, with player's mentality nowadays everybody would just camp using the ship cannon and fire down on a flag

    :v

    Not if the ship moves and has limited range. So it would only be in range on occasion. No different than the gunship really, just it'd be limited to the sea, and make it so you can blow up the gun. Or make it a capture point like with the gunship, so you can change the tide a bit by owning that point. Or having both gunship and destroyer or whatever ship, then the gunship could do some serious damage to the ship when in range.

    To make the "sea warfare" idea come to life and be as realistic as possible, instead of when the game starts on Kharg Island and the vehicles show up on hovercrafts, players have to drive the hovercrafts to the island and can tactically position the vehicles. I think stuff like that would make it more realistic and would make the game more fun.

    I also like the Battleship idea and stuff. Sea warfare in general would be sweet!

    Sea warfare and transport choppers ftw! I just remember driving jeeps out the back of a transport chopper mid-air or loading up a pontoon boat or hovercraft with vehicles in Joint Operations. Excellent way to move mass hardware quickly for a strategic strike

    Yyou could just imagine the pain were in for with transport choppers though, right?

    Its hard enough to get transport across the map as it is. Snipers stealing them to get to their favourite bush. Noobs to perform suicide crashes etc.

    You can just imagine half the team sitting in tanks on a battleship, waiting because sone punk decided to take off without you...

    Submarines with the ability to shoot missiles and launch attacks against aerial & ground vehicles on shore. Sea warfare would just be, freaking AWESOME! They'll probably be about as strong as a javelin in BF3 to prevent overpowered attacks, and restrict the range and locking capabilities... BUT YES!

    Well, it is a good game (and clearly it was the best mission of the entire game :D). Also the mission starting with the sub on MW2 (oil-rig attack) was the best in MW2. Damn these subs are cool :D

    I wonder if they bring back a titan mode scenario as an alternative method to end matches early instead of a long one sided massacre.

    Yeah most games are lopsided. Very rarely do you end up with a game that is tight to the very end. Although I've had a couple rounds where we were getting our 's kicked, and we actually started communicating (imagine that) and listening to each other and turned the tide and won.

    Things to do when baseraped

    -Switch team

    or

    -ALT+F4


    :D


    But srsly, they need to design better maps. It's impossible to break out of your spawn in metro/bazaar/seine once you get baseraped


    Things that should come back though, is the M416 and AN94 :3

    Many servers are strict about switching teams when you're losing big. You always see "Player XXXX tried to switch to the winning team" announced by the server.

    I don't know, I like getting hammered in my base, you need to be stealthy to break it, gunfight won't do it for you, and that is where actual skill is shown imho.

    Found this: Are they hinting to sea warfare?



    Looks like a submarine to me. ;)
