Does Major Pacific include Pearl harbor?

Unless you're mentioning this as a joke, what would be the point? Americans, spawn on ships or land and die? Maybe throw in one fighter if you're feeling generous.

This map was done pretty well in the WWII mod for bf vietnam.

Yeah, but FH has some pretense of realism.

All our battles were won by one side, but in the game any side can win them

Indeed, sometimes people don't see the fact that in a game you can always turn the tide of the battle. 


Plus I think it would be a really cool map but i'll save that for tommorow when I might actually get to play FH2 for the first time  ;D

It sort of ruins the novelty of a surprise attack a bit, but i see the point.

Voted Minor Pacific...AUSSIE, AUSSIE, AUSSIE!!! (after all, you gotta be patriotic! :))

Although I won't hold my breath. I can't see a minor front being done before a major one. E.g: Minor Pacific would come after Major Pacific.

My second choice would be Major Eastern...

Well, I said it already once:

Would like to see operation market garden with greened-out paratroopers, Britsh paras, Arnheim, Neunen or such battles that were part of Operation Market garden


But more than that, I'd like to see the Bulge and all its trappings :-D

Greater detail?

1/ Paradrop for American and British
2/ Armored column facing German defenses and infantry hiding off the edge of hell's highway armed with panzerfausts and lying in ambush
3/ Arnheim!!! and SS panzer group with all their bells and whistles
4/ Battles along the way
5/ Caen, Cherborg, etc, etc - Basically, Normandy Town battles
6/ Operation Cobra
7/ Omaha!!


The Bulge
Destructible trees
ankle-deep snow
foxholes, the quad-50 cal mounted halftruck
SS tank groups against americna infantry
Bastogne, Foy!!!

thick fog, low line of sight, falling snow, and banshee-like gusts and ambience...

we have the desert heat, best captured in Gazala... now lets have the co--OOld!!!

This map was done pretty well in the WWII mod for bf vietnam.

no it wasn't, the WWII mod only included Invasion of the Phillipines, Iwo Jima and Wake.
Pearl Harbor is an "holy grail" in WW2 games. No game or Mod have yet created a really good multiplayer (or single AFAIK) about this scenario. Some have tried, but failed. I wouldn't touch it either, as the core preconditions just speak against everything that good gameplay is about. (it's basically just one big baserape)

Ha...never there was a good multiplayer map about Pointe du Hoc and we did it.

A map about Pearl Harbor would be totally possible and logic, it just would need a hell of work

Ost Front, Bulge, Op MG, Italy, extension of Normandy I don't care, just no Pacific theatre just yet, Pacific would require another long wait for development, I'd rather not wait another 2 years for a few more maps in a new theatre just to please the yanks.

Some would beg to disagree ;) But I never liked any infantry clusterfucks anyway.
It's half naked people on boats. That's all.
