Operation Road Rage is a map featured in Battlefield 2: Armored Fury. It features a Middle Eastern Coalition surprise attack on an interchange on the United States East Coast where the United States Marine Corps must hold the area or risk losing the multiple military bases in the region.
Description
"The MEC forces have made landfall on the Eastern Coast of the United States and are preparing to push inland. Caught by surprise, the US Marines are deploying nearby, hastily preparing a base of operations to stop the MEC advance. The key objective for both armies is a highway junction in the middle of the battlefield that grants access to nearly every key military target in the area. Whoever controls this overpass controls most of the Eastern Seaboard!"

Overpass
The Overpass flag is the farthest northern position of the map, as the name suggest its an overpass with open ground, lots of cover and many places to hide, the abandoned/destroyed cars can be used as cover or to be used to ambushed. The main feature of the map is the overpass that provides a rather vantage point, the top of overpass can be used as a sniping point, there are two LMG emplacement pointing north and south, two ladders are located that can be used to access the top without going around AT troops and snipers can be used to great extent against infantry and vehicles, the roads leading towards the top are narrow so placing a few AT mines can be undermine them.

Trivia
- On the bridge, there is a billboard advertising an electronic watch, titled "Watch For The Future", the time shown is 21:42, an obvious reference to the then upcoming Battlefield 2142.
- The map was seen in the release trailer of Battlefield Play4Free but was never added to the game.[1]
