I'm still on the fence. I'm tired of the COD style singleplayer. Multiplayer I feel like I could get that if I get back into BFBC2. Homefront multiplayer would interest me more if I have some guys on my friends list playing the game.

That's where I'm at, I still have BFBC2 so not sure it's worth a upgrade....I may just hold off for something else in the next month or so

Man, this game has me emotional. Either I'm getting too old for this or they did a great job with pulling you in. Pretty intense.

Ok well I have played 4 games , and I must that I am really impressed with the MP. It's so easy to just jump in and play, and not feel lost. In my fisrt match I went 8-10, without really knowing what I was doing.

The sniping I like, as it's not overdone, and with the follow-cam, you know where the guys are at. So snipers have to either be extremely cautious, or constantly on the move. I also really enjoy the fact that I do not have to unload a whole clip into someone to get the kill.

The controls are very easy, and you will acclimate yourself easily. The hit detection was great, and the graphics, while not awesome, are still done very well.

Very glad I picked this game up!

Post of the thread...and dead on accurate

If this were a sports title,I would agree 100%,we ALL know how those go...lol.
But with this game,there's just something that "feels" different.

I've seen elsewhere folks have stated that if BC and BLOPS had a kid,Homefront would be the result.
I guess the best I could describe it is...take COD's customization,and throw in BC's pace and feel,mix in some really good hit detection,and that gives you Homefront.

Might just be a isolated problem cause I've been playing since noon with no problem. On a side note I was checking out the medals which were not available and I got back to my load outs and I've lost my gun unlocks, I still have my rank and XP but all my guns stats have reset. Not a big deal cause there wasn't that much but just kind of weird.

Re: Homefront (360/PS3)

ok... graphics are OK, not great. Bad company 2 looks much better environmentally and seems to play a little more smoothly BUT... what this does well is good hit detection, the feeling that you are playing a SHOOTER where aim and cover matter.

also while I was underwhelmed for a while when I finally reached level 7 and opened up Battle commander mode... wow... so much FUN.

The more people are learning to use the inventory items (SPOTTING!) the better all games play also.

BC is a blast when you get a few kills you get tagged and all hell breaks loose. same when hunting a streak player...

like that a lot.

Ended up getting it at lunch on 360...couldn't resist!

Re: Homefront (360/PS3)

One thing I don't like is seeing the AI crouching and leaning up against walls but I can't. You can crouch and get good cover but I'd like the ability to stand behind things and peak (unless I'm missing that).

I am enjoying the single player. Very intense and some funny lines too.

From the impressions here that is what I would have thought it was. Reviewers usually take big points off for graphics and length of campaign.

I'm pretty sure they don't. If they do it's not enough.

Re: Homefront (360/PS3)

Like Klocker, I am a bit underwhelmed to tell you the truth. Maybe things will get better after Commander Mode is unlocked.
