Got Tank? I've got tank, but there's too much Tank. TOO MUCH TANK!

User Rating: 5 | Battlefield 2: Euro Force PC
Battlefield 2: Euro Forces is part of EA's commercial genius. Tens of thousands of players starved for new maps, new vehicles and weapons do indeed get their ear scratched, but at a price, 10 dollars. So what, 10 dollars? It's not much compared to what EA has already robbed me of, so 10 bucks....

You get the point. It's an addiction.

But for having so much time to develop new maps, only 3 MAPS, it feels like EA simply obeyed their idiotic fans.

"MORE TANK MANG, MORE AIR 2!"

"Should we?"

"Well, they'll learn. Sure, give it to 'em."

What we get is the proverbial cream pie in the face. So many people got what they thought they wanted, only that is turns out that so much wide area, so many tanks, and so many helicopters and planes, with the added anti-air firepower, is a pretty crappy experience, especially as the number of players goes up. It's impossible for a land troop not be spotted by a vehicle, it's impossible for tanks to get away from the helos and planes, it's impossible for the helos and planes to get away from the anti-air, and it's impossible for anti-air to fight against anything else. Euro Forces will not light up the scoreboard because they are so few flags on the air maps named Taraba Quarry and Operation Smoke Screen do not stress teamwork. Teamwork is so far gone in those two maps that lone wolfs are really the only people who could have fun with this game. Even by assembling a squad and supporting each other, a few stray AT mines or a good bomber can rain on everyone.

Also, detail among the map is so lacking, you'll wonder what your CPU usage is so high for. Taraba Quarry is simply 3 bases on each side of a river, with one in the middle. And in the middle, one neutral base. And in the middle of this? Nothing.

"Wha?"

Desert. I mean, there's not even one shrub out there. No lonely tree, just mud-colored desert. Even worse, no protection from Mr. Bomberman. You might think you're looking at Advance Wars from the top-down look of the Commander screen, because everything is so uniform... And... symmetrical. Eww.

So, if you are a true BF2 fan (AKA fanboy) and are truly loyal to the BF2 franchise(AKA... I got nothing better to do), and don't mind spending the 10 bucks(AKA As if another 10 bucks into the ****ter will make a difference), Euro Forces is for you. (AKA OMFG MEDIOCRE MAPS! =D)

Them Europeans though... They're funny. (AKA 8 for sound)

Have a good one. (AKA See you in a few hours when you piss 10 dollars down the drain like I did.)
