Battlefield 2: Special Forces

Seeing as Battlefield 2: Special Forces works seperately from Battlefield 2 with its own factions and kits, should it have separate article too? Or mix together (smoke grenades from BF2, tear gas from SF, etc.)?

Yeah, I think the weapons from the Special Forces expansion pack should be included in this entry. The weapons are definitely unique enough, though probably not the gameplay modes.--Mazryonh 04:18, 5 February 2010 (UTC)

I just ordered BF2: SF off of Amazon, and plan to add the content from it as soon as I can. Orca1 9904 20:04, 14 March 2011 (CDT)

Weapon listings from popular mods for BF2?

I think this game's popular mods have been unfairly ignored in this wiki. While certainly this game doesn't have quite the fan following like Counter-Strike does, I think some of BF2's more popular mods deserve an entry. One of these is "Project Reality," a mod that tries its damnedest to incorporate more realistic gameplay elements and armaments for the various factions, and has already added quite a few nation-specific armies as factions to their mod, such as the Canadian Forces, the Russian Army, the Israeli Defence Force, etc. Version 0.9 of the mod was recently released and can be gotten here.--Mazryonh 05:10, 5 February 2010 (UTC)

I'll download this mod when it comes out and will work on adding the weapons for it, as it looks like it has some unique weapons not mentioned in the main BF2 article, including the Galil, Tavor-series bullpups, Colt Canada C7A2, and a few others. Orca1 9904 05:18, 5 February 2010 (UTC)

I'd certainly appreciate your efforts, but I was also wondering whether or not Project Reality deserves its own page much like Insurgency, a mod for Counter-Strike, already has one of its own. The gameplay is certainly quite different, and you can get an idea of just how different it is by reading the new manual for the 0.9 version. --Mazryonh 16:33, 5 February 2010 (UTC)

I believe that a enormous mod like Project Reality deserve its own page in IMFDB, maybe with a link to the original game's page. Lone Soldier 10:14 10/02/2010

I agree, if Insurgency has its own article then Project Reality most certainly deserves its own too. --Masterius 06:38, 11 March 2010 (UTC)

As a notorious PR player I can only support this ;) 88.69.255.177

I think it would be a good idea to give PR its own page, or its own section at the very least. It seems to clutter the battlefield 2 page and gives false impressions of whats in the game and what isnt. Though, it does remind me that I need to get the next version of PR... 5t3v0

I have started work on a separate page for PR, and am transferring content relevant to that mod to the new page. Orca1 9904 12:42, 21 April 2010 (UTC)

Please do. It was about time. The mod is a great piece of work and really deserves its own entry with information on firing modes, magazine capacities, etc. for each weapon. I wonder if a professional developer would ever have the balls, time, and money to make a game like this nowadays . . . --Mazryonh 22:23, 21 April 2010 (UTC)

The page is up, just need to add screenshots to some of the weapons. I personally think PR is superior to BF2 in some respects, such as authenticity on uniforms of some of the classes carried over from BF2 (such as the USMC & PLA), and the more detailed weapon models (compare the BF2 M4A1 to its' PR counterpart, for example). I also heard that they're coming out with a sequel and a version focusing on Vietnam. Orca1 9904 22:51, 21 April 2010 (UTC)

BF2:SF guns in game

there is no pictures of the g36k/scar-h/flashbang/teargas/rpg7 in the actual game which patch/mod did you use for unlocks in singleplayer

I was only able to add the basic weapons from the game (and the Euro Force & Armored Fury content when v1.50 added it to the main game), but as I stated above, I have just recently purchased the Special Forces expansion pack and will be adding content from it as soon as I get it.

MG36E

Wasn't the MG36E an MG36 with simplified sight? I might be wrong, but according to the G36 page, any MG36 with "C" carrying handle should be ID'd and called a G36. - bozitojugg3rn4ut 14:05, 30 March 2012 (CDT)
