Info on the new map in the demo

Conquest Description: In January 2143, the PAC tried to appropriate another key resource target in Egypt, the Sidi Power Plant. The recently constructed facility provided more than 40% of the EU populations energy. Each coalition depleted of manpower and equipment, the battle began primarily as a ground war. The EUs 3rd and 4th Infantry Divisions established three lines of defense, fighting off wave after wave of incursions by PAC Special Forces. In March, armored and airborne divisions arrived for both sides. Within weeks, the fight intensified to become one of the largest and most fervent of the entire war.

Titan Description: At first, the PAC utilized its depleted Titan fleet conservatively in its attack on the Sidi Power Station. Similarly, the EU relegated its armada to primarily non-battle zone transportation duties. Soon, however, the ground war intensified. More air support and delivery was required. Within a month, the skies were again filled with Titans.

Wow, they really are whoring this one out.

First, they had tiered beta-testing (pay to test first), then tiered demo (pay to try first), and to finish it off, they are basically gonna force a ranked server on people.
