Thanks for the feedback Lorax.

I'd love to see NS maps in Titan mode back. I had quite a blast playing titan on bridge of remagen and port bavaria. I've never played on liberation of leipzig (does it even have a titan mode option?!).

NS in my opinion is really cool, and I'm extremely surprised to see it's not too popular.

Just a suggestion, but for anyone who wants to play NS, is there anyway we could schedule a scrimmage, set up before hand, that way we know we will have a decent show out for the night. It could be hosted on the second server that way it wouldn't be getting in the way of everyone else wanting to play the original maps that night.

The problem is that right now, with the first server crashing so much, the second server is the only server with kick scripts running (as far as I know right now.) So the supporting members play there - as they can always get in (can't always get in on the 1st conquest server.)

Going way back to this:

Why not use the second server as the host to the Campaign event?

I don't know if Rasta contacted you guys about this yet, but it seems a great way to keep the second server populated, and we don't have to kill the first server for hours at a time for the Campaign.

In addition, and this is just wishful thinking on my part - it allows us to run an NS map in the campaign as well.

The current map rotation works fine for me, but I believe that one reason that people don't play armor maps is because that they cause their computers to lag due to their lack of RAM. I know mine does.

And the only reason I could play armor maps this week was because I was borrowing a friends PC. After today, he's taking it back and it's back to slow-as-hell gaming. 10 FPS FTL!

Like I said last time - Only real gamers play on less than 25 FPS.

I like NS, but what this game really needs is another expansion. Just my opinion (whatever happened to America?? Since when did we get wiped off the map?)

**Grimmfist** · 02-14-2008, 11:28 PM

Agreed, Deathblade. But you may have opened a can of worms that went around I think much earlier last year. All this scientific mumbo jumbo about how most of N.A. would be under ice, therefore no N.A. maps. I think there are no N.A. maps so people can't complain that they got details wrong about the city or place DICE would use. So keep it in Africa, Russia, and East Europe and nobody can gripe about "authenticity". Maybe a mod will come out eventually with maps for N.A.

I had always thought that if I were to do a big mod "x-pac" for BF2142 it would either be about the PAC invading South America due to their loses in NS (and fighting an SA + NA army), or about the NA Coalition moving against the SA coalition. In that case there would be Americans, and if you moved far enough south, you could get some jungle action.

On the other hand, half of Europe isn't completely under ice -so why would the US be? Remember, in the manual it says there are 6 coalitions, of them we've seen PAC, EU, & the African Union mentioned.

I thought that somewhere it was mentioned that North America became a giant block of ice?
