Where do you play BF2?

TBH they have rules to add to fairness, no attacking red circles, and no fighting and commanding are 2 rules there to make sure you have somehwhere safe to spawn/grab a vehicle/plane, and to make sure your commander actually does his job.eekfek said:
They are a bunch of sensiblr (on the most part) people, which wont tolerate people running round going ZOMG ZOMG as its childish, and people get annoyed with whingers.
Just my views.
I've never understood the red circle rule , if it's there I'll play by it , but on maps where only one team has it , I don't see how it's fair 
.
Take kubra dam or one of the other maps where the usa has the red circle and the other team don't. One teams jets are free to bomb the crap out of the airfield , yet the other can't do it back. Even worse on the maps with the carrier. Airfield that is protected by two cannons , with 8 missiles and can instantly be repaired is no go , yet the airfield that is protected by a single stinger is fine to attack , don't really see the fairness .

I understand the commander one, but what is this no attack red base rule all about? It is easily the most pointless rule ever enforced in a game.
If one team is totally owning, it turns out that they can't attack the main base so what do they do? Lay it under siege. Same result, just the attackers get bored outside the base waiting for the losing team to come out.
Or when it gets to the point where one airfield is a good target, but the opposition's is not.
If you're not supposed to attack red circle bases, why are there stationary defences there? To decorate?

I almost always play on the main 50k server these days and ever since the 1.4 patch things have been looking up for BF2, no more server crashes and generally stable gameplay. The 50k people are a cool bunch and those who frequent the server are generally well mannered; any idiots are usually dealt with swiftly. The only thing I don't like about the server is that its usually unbalanced and you always seem to get the noobs bunched together in one team. Personally its not that bad since I like having a challenge.
As for the red circle thing, well I got banned once for attacking near the red circle on sharqi peninsula, I was actually quite some distance away and was in no way 'raping' the red circle. Its a good rule imo, but I think some admins can take it a bit too far at times.

After one unavoidable collision, getting accused of kamakaze tactics and being banned isn't my idea of fun on 50k.SIAT said:50 klicks is the best admined server for bf2.
Thats from someone who's been kicked by them a few times
They have a few rules but it does make the game so much more enjoyable for everyone
Give me the other publics anyday.

Well im sure attacking a red circle base would fall into base raping by the admin, but i do agree with you.. it is quite stupid! One thing i dont like is when i get kicked for going on the hill on Karkand when all iv done is stand near hotel having nades thrown at me for the last 5/10 mins, do you not think im gunna come get you? Its just so boring when there team is so noob they just camp on the hill/behind the building and just throw nades the whole round..
I think what the problem with attackin red circle is if you are raging it and its there only spawn and there wont be anyway to stop you..
i have to say that im not entirely sure about the not attacking the uncappable base thing UNLESS the team has no other flags to spawn at. then it becomes really bent and IMO should not be allowed.
but if you are attacking an uncap then why are you when you should be helping to actually take flags which are cappable? that is the main aim of the conquest game mode isnt it?
