You choose Battlefield Bad Company Conquest maps
Already registered via Xbox Live to vote in November's general election? Here's a different vote to rock: EA is letting players have a say in which two existing Battlefield: Bad Company multiplayer maps will be tweaked to become Conquest battlegrounds when the free Conquest Map Pack deploys this fall.
The six maps are up for vote at EA's Bad Company site, and include Acta Non Verba, Crossing Over, Par for the Course, Ghost Town, Welcome to Bad Company, and Crash and Grab. Developer DICE will pick the two top vote-getters on September 2. The golf course themed Par for the Course is currently way out in front, but, hey, you might change that. DICE is working on two more Conquest maps to join the fan favorites.
By the way, we've checked, and your vote really will count. You know, unlike a certain Spider-Man: Web of Shadows poll Activision conducted last month.

This was a comment talking about how much better BBC(and every other MP Game in general) would be more awesome with a bit of TF2 basics added...then I had to delete all that because something has struck me.

BTW, those are campaign maps, not multiplayer maps.

I concur. Those are campaign maps being converted into multiplayer maps.

I loved this game at first, but over time this game has worn out its stay.
So many of the things that made the previous Battlefield games great has been removed. Aircraft are worthless here. No Medic shock paddles. There are so many counters to vehicles in the game that vehicles don't feel powerful, but just an alternate character class.
Many of the maps are campers' dreams. The objectives are constantly exposed to almost 360 degrees of fire. This means you are very often being killed by enemies you cannot see. Far more often than what we saw in COD4, where the maps offer flanking opportunities but still manage to keep attack routes at a limited level.
I just hope they bring the terrain physics to their other games. That's pretty much the only good thing about this game.

Aircraft are worthless? Sounds like you just can't fly them. Too many ways to take out vehicles? Boo hoo, you can't just rush in with a tank and dominate, you have to think things through, or know when to retreat and repair. It sounds like you just aren't very good at the game and are bitter.
