took me two or three read overs to figure out what your talking about, a picture would have helped.

Sounds like its a LOD (level-Of-Detail) issue, what that means is the model gets lower polygons the further away you are.

Try turning your geometry setting up

It's BF2 engine morphing the terraing to make it more smooth (or easier to handle?) in the distance. This stretching is explained here:

The reason, I think, why it's so clearly visible in Muttrah is because there is long roads going diagonally across those streched polygons explained above.

You see, the terrain underneath the road above the wall is raised, as clueless said, this results in terrain morphing because (its more complicated than this) the reference points used to sculpt terrain are too far away from eachother.

though they aren't exactly pretty, they don't affect gameplay, so its ok

the only alternative afaik would be to make a big road static, but this does the job for now.
