I know there are a few EA haters about and are still pissed about the patches and crap, let alone shelling out more cash for another expansion, but......SF owns. The zip lines and the grappling hook just add a whole new dimension to the game.

Buildings with those balconies, you can get up on all of them.....I'm sure this will bring out a bunch of dirty snipers Mad

but when you hook up with a spec ops who has the zip line, you can get many places....my buddy hooked us way up in a buiklding across the street, from a building like the TV station in Sharqi, with the flag on the second story deck....we were four or five stories up on a balcony .....we watched another pair of enemies zip into the flag.....I shoot my zip across and we start across the street over the top of an enemy LAV rolling down the street......we land on the deck and go to work taking out the pair of infantry just after they had neutralized the flag.

Well, guess you had to be there, but that would have made a sweet video.

There are night maps as well as day maps and the points you aquire in SF are at zero to begin with....got 3 unlocks my first night of playing maybe 4 or 5 maps....and you can use them in regular BF2.....you can also use those points to unlock reggy BF2 unlocks if you choose.

I'd get it... if I played BF2 at all, and if I weren't already planning to get UT2004

alright now on the topic of unlocks, are there more sf unlocks and do you get them the same way you get them in reg bf2? If I go up a rank in reg bf2 can I choose if I wanna unlock a SF gun or a reg bf2 gun?

Yes, there are SF unlocks and they are had the same way as usual. I did use one of the unlocks I earned in SF to get the G3, which i had not unlocked yet. I don't know if it goes in the other direction
