Now that you mention it, I do find the APC spawns.. weird. That rainy map is Anctoville I presume? In any case, I agree - the gameplay on that map was indeed aimless, that describes it perfectly. Once one flag was capped, it was re-taken in just another minute. Flag capping is incredibly quickly done with an APC full of men. The map is a total chaos and uncoordinated, and now that I think of it, without these spawns both armies will be able to establish a front and the gameplay will be much more progressive, which should fix the 'aimless' problem. Right now it plays more like Unreal Tournament Domination mode.

I haven't played 2.25 yet but alot of FH2 urban maps have suffered from "insta-cap" syndrom where it seems that you can cap a flag pretty much instantly. This makes the game feel less intense and more like annoying whack-a-mole, running around the map trying to cap a flag you just spawned from!

By making capture times much longer, it encourages longer firefights and less running around aimlessly.

@ Hockeywarrior Villers-Bocage is the exception and I agree with your statement

So what will be the new stuff for 2.25?

Well, not that it could happen for a few years, but imagine if they did Forgotten Hope... for the Project Reality engine. Well, when (or if) they actually do make it. Which would be years ahead. But still fun to imagine...

Massive Suicide, i mean, Toldi (Toldis?) Tanks with tons of soldiers on it moving toward the frontline to face T34s.. sounds suicidal.
