Maybe there is one, Fuel Of War: FRONTLINES

I am beta testing it the moment (for FilePlanet subscribers its http://www.fileplanet.com/promotions/frontlines/beta/index.aspx)

Made by Battlefield Vietnam/2 Modders its very much like BF2 but action is more intense with a domination-type gameplay: to advance the frontlines (equivalent to capping areas) two flags need capping, not only one, it makes it more interesting as your are always facing the opposing side :D, see below:

Also to note, the class feature is new here and you can choose your loadout (sniper, assault, support..) and your role independantly (emp engineer, drones, airt support..).

More on the site: http://www.frontlinesgame.com/

Beta isn't optimized so gfx dont look so good (textures missing...) - Its Unreal Engine.

This is where this game gets interesting! You CANNOT cap any other flags than the ones (usually 2) directly on the frontline. Results? You and your teammates will have no choice but to work together on either flags :)

So basicly you have a full 64 player server. Just because only 1 flag can be capped at a time doesnt make it more interesting. It makes it crowded. On BF2 if you have teamwork like you see in that ss you would have massive team killing because idiots dont watch where they are and the guys in the choppers would have a field day against that anyway as bunched up as they are.

BTW I was a beta tester for it too and all I saw was spawn camp, spawn camp, and ummm spawn camp.

Yes its gonna be really fun.

It has the Unreal Engine, thats awesome :D . Thats the same engine used on Unreal Tournament 3! which also looks like an awesome game!

That game looks good as, might get that in the near future :) !!

Looks fun. Only thing I wish people would do is ACTUALLY care about capping command posts on BF2. They only care about nade spamming and killing >_<

But this looks like it might change that. Teamwork is NEEDED.
