Re: Wake Island 2142
I don't mind it. However I don't play it that often either. I'm just lucky in that way I suppose. It can run a little slow at times but I've had some good games on it.

The "bridge" is there, but its just below the water line. Tough to see unless your close to it. Originally Posted by SuperDudeBT

Re: Wake Island 2142
It's my least favorite map. That's not to say that I wish for it to be removed from the rotation, I voted that I don't mind playing it. I think most of MY pre-game groaning on this map is just due to the fact that I played it so much on BF1942, I just see the name and I roll my eyes. To me, the action on this map just gets a little stagnant. There's so few places to go, that it seems everyone kind of picks a point to attack and stays there in the rounds I've played. But I think I really need to give it a few more chances before I completely give up on it.

Re: Wake Island 2142
I was pretty burned out on it after all the testing we did pre launch but as with all things as I come back to it I enjoy it more. On nights where there is a solid TG presence, the map is great, I shudder to think what it is like on a pubbie server.

Re: Wake Island 2142
I like Wake. It can be a lot of fun with the right teams. A good commander can also make or break the map. Keep it in rotation.

Re: Wake Island 2142
I like wake. Getting inside the coreroom (explain to the rest of the team that you don have to blow the core) and annoy the enemy in there.

Re: Wake Island 2142
Controlling the core puts EU under a nasty bleed though, so you do want to get in there and take it.

Re: Wake Island 2142
So much to hate....
Core is the only real flag to fight over. Only flag that causes bleed.
EU gunship is almost insta spawn.
AA is everywhere. Only way to avoid an EMP lock to fly high or wide.
Every flag has armor, and almost no land mass to support it.
It's just too cramped with too much stuff.

Re: Wake Island 2142
Probably not even played. Points, awards and tags aren't honoured so there's no real 'reason' to play it other than for poops and giggles. I'm glad we had the opportunity to mold the map into the first community content included on BF 2142 Originally Posted by rage4order

I'm not a fan of this map at all.
