I keep hearing that this game on XBOX LIVE is nto that great. You can only use EA servers and cannot create your own. I'm still getting it, I have it on order....but I'm not looking for the best. I guess it'll hold me over until 11/22

Funny moment from last night:
Last night, on the Wake Island map I was playing for the Chinese Army as a support infantry. I was trying to take over a site when I noticed the flag started rocketing upwards as an American outpost. I turn to the right and like 8 guys come around the corner of a house. yup, I'm ready to respawn.

So, who is playing the XBOX version? I picked it up and I think it is just average. LAG online kinda kills it, plus you cannot create your own room. You think LAG should be obsolete if EA is hosting servers. I was a bit annoyed. The gamplay is pretty good though.

the other night I was having probably my best game ever. Karkand as MEC and despite not starting the round, tank was there so I grabbed it. Most of the credit goes to a fantastic commander, the best ive seen in the game so far. He kept the UAV going right on my tank or the guys on the front line so we could see the enemy coming at all times. Seemed like everytime the tank was starting to get seriously damaged, I didnt even have to say anything and poof here comes the crate. I finished the round 43k/3d and the third death was after I had bailed from the tank, I slid down a hill and was hiding in the grass waiting for the coast to clear up a bit before heading back for another tank when a teammate walked up and emptied a clip into my back.
next round started and I got 7 kills in the tank, and 3 more with my SVD/pistol after I bailed. Just seemed like I was unkillable and could do no wrong. figured I should quit before my luck reversed itself and went to bed when people started crying to even up the teams.

I love the Karkland map. When I'm on the US side, I grab the machine gun on the right and lay down support for advancing troops. You can still kill the guys hiding behind fences. When I'm on the MEC side, I'm a support infantry and I climb up on the roof on the set of buildings to right of the map. You can easily pick off advancing US troops.

Kinda late to the party, but I picked up Battlefield 2 yesterday and I'm loving it. I played the heck out of BF1942, but for some reason never picked up BF2 or even Vietnam. But man oh man, playing Wake Island 2007 is bringing back some good memories.
So has anyone picked up the Euro Forces booster pack? Is it worth the $10? It seemed kinda high, like something that might have made for a good free update if it wasn't EA behind it, but maybe the new maps are worth it.
