How are you transforming Oasis from a BC1 map to a BC2 map?

-- We look back at what made the level appeal to such a large number of players in BC1 and then we add even more good stuff so we can deliver an even greater experience.



-- We first get a blueprint of the original level, then recreate it in the editor and start replacing the old BC1 assets with the new and optimized ones from BC2. Think about the full destruction buildings and micro destruction materials like wood fences and concrete covers, which I know players love to tear apart.



-- Then we dress it up with suitable ambient sounds for each part of the level, new weather settings, a variety of sand storm effects, and an overall war ambient setting around the combat zone to remind you that this is not a field trip -- that you are part of an ongoing war when you play.

Can I just make an admission at the risk of feeling foolish and say: I have a problem keeping track of what map packs I have for BF:BC2. And when I check in marketplace it never seems to give me "you already have purchased' notifications as reminders.

This is great news though.
