    Ido think MAG is a better long term bet. It's a real slow burn though. I have been playing it since late August so I know it does get better. you just have to patient and level up with it.

      anyone else like playing as the defender vs the attacker in the demo? I don't know, but there's something about just sitting and waiting for the enemy to arrive at your doorstep and then pick them off one by one.

      This game is amazing btw. Its such a surreal feeling to be in a building that gets rocked by tank fire. The deafening explosion, the rocking of the building, the debris falling...damn its amazing.
      I can't shave with my eyes closed, meaning each day I have to look at myself in the mirror and respect who I see.

      I miss the old days of Operation Sports :(

        Last time I played our team held the attackers off at the first objective! Game over! Was in the midst of sending my squadmates a message about it when I got "NICE!" and "OMG AWESOME!" popping up on my screen lol.

        But in general defense is more rewarding because the squad really has to work together to get the job done. While tactics are fairly crucial to offense, too, a team with all Rambos can still win; that just doesn't work on defense.

          This is making me want this game so bad. So jealous. I wish I could get in this beta.

              Granted I am not playing the beta but I was watching videos on youtube of the game a lot today and it looks and plays very very similar to Bad Company 1. Graphic upgrade and a small damage upgrade is about all I see. Am I wrong with this assessment??

                Yes, it's similar, but videos don't tell the whole story. DICE has made a lot tweaks and additions that make it a much better experience than BC1.
                • Tighter controls
                • Regenerating health
                • Hit detection vastly improved
                • Greater bullet damage
                • Better ballistics - you have to account for bullet drop now.
                • No more instant zoom or no scopes
                • Sniping isn't a one hit kill unless it's a headshot.
                • Better balance between scopes and iron-sights.
                • Getting hit throws aim off
                • Medics aren't useless since they now have defib paddles.
                • Flyable UAV instead of attackers controlling an artillery placement to rain down shells in a specific area. Powerful, yet easy to take down.
                • ATVs - fast, agile and very useful to get to vantage/sniping spots.
                • Specializations (perks) - Nothing to crazy, but all are useful and balance each other out.
                • Parachutes
                • Flexibility with additional customizable kits
                • Kit specific leveling

                    Gravity has some effect on the shots you fire.

                      Yea, it is a gigantic update...very good..but without other types of matches, such as TDM etc. I don't think this game will be able to keep players' attention...hopefully...

                      I just wish you didn't have to get out of your scope to reload with snipers-big disadvantage. I also feel like thhat one of the bolt action sniper rifles should have been a one shot kill to the chest(some kind of random multiplier so it isn't every shot to the chest of course..or else the balance would be ruined. But when a guy goes behind a rock and his health regenerates...annoying.

                        Previous Battlefield games didn't have trouble keeping peoples attention with only one mode. Conquest has some TDM sensiblites to it, but Battlefield would lose a lot of what makes it unique if they added a traditional TDM mode. Also, the maps just aren't simply built for it.

                          Well what I really mean to say is just a wide variety of different types of match types. Not really TDM.

                            Besides Rush and Conquest, we know there will be 2 other modes.

                            Interview

                            In an interview with IncGamers, Dice’s Gordon Van **** let slip that the new modes will focus on teamwork.

                            “[W]e also have two new game modes that we're not disclosing all the details about – but I will say that it's completely based and focused on squad play,” he said.

                            “That, I think, is going to take it to the next level, and people really need to stay on the lookout for when we release those details.”

                              Finally got in last night. This games sound is stunning. I went running into a building only to start hearing a ringing noise because someone had blown out a part of the wall. That part in its self was amazing but, WOW! The sound effects are outstanding!

                                How long does the beta go for and are there only certain hours it's online (like the terrible MAG beta)?

                                I got my key but haven't had time to log on yet.
