New Mod - Berlin

[Nil Nomen]

It has been suggested that Berlin be modded to an Infy map similar to Stalingrad. Here is what I propose:

1) limiting expacks and grenades to 1 with reloads only in APC's (or no reloads)

2) no allied tanks

3) axis keeps the apc and the tank that spawns on the southwest flag will be changed to an apc

4) no change to ticket ratio (or even since beginning will not be as hard for allies)

The map is supposed to be an uphill battle for allies and since allies have the advantage of an uncapturable flag, I'm keeping the axis vehicles to try to help them both with fire power and mobility.

Any thought or suggestions?

Berlin is a very difficult map for me. I have not been playing the game for very long and I still have much to learn. I really dislike the Russian machine gun. It has a lot of bullets but I swear that they are made out of cork. Close fighting is tough. Especially when expacks and grenades are used by someone with experience using them.

The allied tanks do not appear to be an advantage for the allies because they are just a tin can that explodes. They get in the way when trying to shoot at axis infantry from the allied main and they do not stand up very well to expacks and zooks. The empty tanks are a hazard to allied infantry trying to get out of the main because of Spash damage when the axis blows them up.

to help allies get out of the first flag area place a machine gun in the window of the building at the end of the ally, closest to the axis close flag.
This will, in my humble opinion help the allies at least get out of the ally area with some coverage while dodging xpacks, nades and infy..oh my..
of course once that gun is abandoned or over run then the axis can control it.

How about this : NO tanks, NO expacks, Knifes only and viper in b17.... Rock ON!!! :weird:

How about taking out tanks and adding jeeps with guns on top!! leave everything else except nades they must go!! allied get 3 jeeps , axis get 2 might be fun! and you can only spawn as zook!! :tongue:

I'm honestly not sure which parts of that you really mean Zeee. I think the map is too small to jeep it up. BTW - you mentioned how you would rather have a different rifle in the engineer kit. What swap were you looking for? Berlin would probably not be the map for this, but it can be done.

a different rifle in the engineer kit would be good i think for an inf only map on berlin. it's close urban fighting . . . the bolt action rifles are too slow. they're better for the maps with defined battle lines and more open space.

Nil... Have you played Modded berlin desert combat, they have more vehicals in berlin then im suggesting same map different game. But its still alot of fun. I guess because its caputure the flag... Why not change berlin to CTF would change the nade spamming then jeeps would be fun. Maybe lose the engie kits and add another assult weapon. Hey look im bored and throwing stuff out there whatever you all do you do :nuts:

i liked the original stalingrad. it's hard to turn the tide in the modded version and the relative silence is eerie.

as for berlin, take out the axis panzer or limit nades to 1 with reloads. another radical idea would be to leave it as is but make NE gray at the beginning of the map.
