My thoughts:

I don't like the little birds. It sucks when your going somewhere, you see one coming, so you duck and take cover, you think its going on its way and then, oh, it turns around and hunts you down for however long it takes to kill you.

Also, does it seem like the three armored fury maps take longer to load and are more laggy/stuttery once you join for the first few minutes?

Besides the glitches, I say $10.00 well spent.

But I did enjoy the maps when I did play

I have to admit that I am quite impressedwith AF. Had great fun last night leading a "convoy" in my truck followed by an APC, AA and a tank. Honking the horn all the way! Midnight Sun is a cool map and Operation Harvest is quite nice as well.

Has any one played basketball with grenades yet on Road Rage? There is a swing park and picnic benches near the Overpass and a small suburb

You have to learn the rules of the game and then you have to play better than anyone else.

i like it so far, every round of OpRR and Midnight I played i was in the A10, Harvest is really cool to, only one i played on the ground. Scout choppers rule, so easy to gun down an Atk Helo with them.

This needs to be in the game, not in a fucking "Booster Pack"

EA, stop being a whore, put ALL the maps and shit into the game, not try to suck as much money out as possible from players.

AF is nice. So far Midnight sun is my fav, even though I don't like dark maps to much. The sounds in that map are sweet, the bugs chirping, the wolves howlng, really gives u the sense that ur up north. BTW: has anyone tryed stunts with the new planes? I have. I like flying the A-10 under the over pass in road rage, and also those super low bridges by the MEC base in road rage. Thos bridges are really hars, u have to fly a like 6 feet. The max aktitude of the new planes in like 950 ft...so yeah.

It should only take 15-30 minutes to download. If it didn't start at all, then you need to restart the download.

I give this booster an 8 out of 10.

I like it so far but ran into the same issue some others have mentioned of the whole thing locking up tight in the middle of the game. No way out but to give my system the three finger salute. I like the maps quite a bit and it was very cool just watching the Littlebirds zipping around the sky.

Only problem I have is b/c I'm a noob pilot...soooo theres way to much friggin stuff to run into while flying!!!!!
But I still really really really enjoy this booster. I think the addition of "aircraft" > new tanks. Thats why this one is better than EF in my opinion.

Ohh and the A-10 and what not are just fodder to the AA if it gets the drop, I ate a bunch of em up just sitting around on the highways on road rage.

Sorry, but if *YOU* were EA/Dice, you'd be doing the same damn thing. It's a good idea. Give you a damn good game for $50, then add-ons for $10 here and there???? What, would you rather spend another $50??????? Give me a break, shell out the $10 and stop bitching.

Played it a couple of times and dug it.
Same old plane whores but commanding in an AA and hiding under a shelter
was fun. Enemy choppers fly over and never see it coming.
Overall, best yet I think.

The Little birds are awesome, and the A-10 Thunderbolt should reek more destruction on tanks. I don't know if anyone has seen the videos of them shooting tanks but it is pretty devastating.

Tottally agree. The A-10 was about the only reason i bought this. Very dissapointed. The A-10 also has a rep for being able to take alot of fire and still keep going. I will be the first to admit that sometimes i just suck at flying but I have yet to kill any armor with the mingun and get shot down every time i fly by AA.

As for the maps, being an American it was kind of eerie fighting in the homeland. Shopping malls and truck stops and all.

I dont think the A-10 should be indestructable but it is certainly not accurate from what I know about them. Also I realize the A-10 is slower than other aircraft but another one of it's strengths is supposed to be manuverability.

after the shellshock of an A10 came past me, i realized that the bomb spread is retarded, and you hit more poles and shit trying to use the piddleshit AT cannon. good for AT and mines tho

You know i had the same problem with hitting poles in the plane...i was drunk though...Nevertheless the poles are a bit problematic for the planes. Take a little practice i imagine.

I'm loving these new maps, so so much better than EF IMO. Very glad I bought it, a lot of fun.

Know what you mean about tanks getting stuck on tiny obstacles, quite annoying but I guess the answer is to get better at driving.

Roadrage is pretty laggy on my machine but I am pushing the spec anyway.

All in all very well worth the cash. Overpass on Roadrage is narly as fuck, great fun! Plus played with a cool scottish dude called king*something* snake or something. Thumbs up dude if you're on here. Good booster.
