We'll just close the other thread and start this new one, since I couldn't merge them successfully with a functioning poll...

Thanks for posting. Wonder if you could add a "planning on getting within 2 weeks" option for those that may not have acquired it yet, but are definately going to.

I picked it up (well, downloaded it) yesterday. Only after seeing that TG is hosting a server for it - otherwise I would not have purchased.

I only played some single player and it was aight, although the night vision is a pain (in that you always use it). Cant wait to play some real online battles with fellow TGers.

A tip on the night vision is to map the weapon 7 key to your middle mouse button. Makes switching the NV on and off much easier.

alright, i answered "no" to this poll but have in fact ordered it online this very day.

i know there have been approximately ten posts created about the new expansion, but this is the newest so i'll post my opinion here.

the only reason i'm getting this is because TG has a server dedicated to SF at this time. if the community continues to be split, i wouldn't mind seeing certain nights vanilla, certain nights tactical mod, and certain nights SF. this would keep at least one server full instead of 28 in each.

i'm also looking forward to the new weapons and maps, this is true.

however, my one big complaint is this: the notion of Special Forces implies covertness, plain and simple. the idea of an "all seeing" commander who has artillery at his/her disposal might completely turn me off to the expansion if TG doesn't eliminate artillery at the very least, and quite possibly the UAV and Scan functions as well. i would still like to see a commander, but that commander would have to base his/her decisions on reports from the field and then act on those reports. snipers could be used to monitor troop concentrations and movements. and of course, luck would play a role, more so than in vanilla BF2. luck has always played a huge role in combat throughout history. and don't forget about those little things known as fire discipline and squad cohesion. like i said, this expansion could be great from what i've read...but the artillery leaves a bitter taste in my mouth before i've even installed the expansion...

I have it but I haven't played it much. Only once on TG server and only couple times single player.

Due to the number of buildings and different tiers, arty and UAV is not nearly as effective. People are difficult to find as all buildings are scalable and a much larger amount can be entered. Assets are more important in BF2V, imo.

we should implement a TG tactical mod-SF edition

is that possible?

while i dislike EA/Dice's way of doing things, i do support SF- i just picked it up and am pleasantly suprised.

i know people are afraid of SF turning BF2 into a game more devoid of teamwork, but really i think the teamwork is strengthened. with the emphasis mostly on ground-pounding, i think it fits TG fine.

and most of the the things we were afraid of aren't that bad at all. hooks and ziplines help to break up the linearity we see in popular maps, creating alternate routes. the one-man vehicles work well for quick reconnaisance. flashbangs and teargas can help give a well-coordinated assault squad the edge.

and the new maps ain't half bad, either.

Most likely. I have some ideas for SF including balancing some of the new weapons and making the vanilla maps playable with all the new toys. But I haven't decided to get the expansion yet. Maybe after we get Tactical Mod 0.4 out the door and TG's interest in SF solidifies a bit. I'd love to see a weekly SF night that fills the server.

I'm not going to purchase it

I have it and enjoy playing it. I have not seen any use though on the TG servers and since those are the most enjoyable servers to play on my time has been limited.
