The more I play this game the more I love it. Ranking up is fun with just enough gap between ranks that it doesn't feel like a grind. I'm level 22 right now so that feeling may change once I get higher. I haven't been killed yet where I felt it was a cheap kill. Even with a one red bar connection it plays just fine and I can get kills as well as I do with a 3 green bar connection. Once the servers and party issues get ironed out this game is truly going to shine.

I couldn't agree more

As far as leveling up goes,Iirc I'm like a 24 or 25 and from what I understand,once you get to level 50? I believe..it gets much harder to level up.
I really hope they get the party issues ironed soon as well.

This game is way too fun. Really glad I got it. I love using drones and all the other vehicles. I love all the chaos that follows!

Just tried Battle Commander Ground Control and it's awesome!

Oh yea...drones are a blast.
If you haven't yet...check out Battle Commander TDM,that's been by far my most played mode as of recently.

75 is the cap, you have a long way to go

Spoiler

I believe they said there is going to be a sequel.

I am enjoying the game but the servers are pretty terrible plus I freeze everytime I leave a game and have to reboot. I can live with the poor graphics but poor servers is another story.

Re: Homefront (360/PS3)

servers finally cooperated last night.

Got into my first 32 man GC game with some players who know what was up.

WOW.. so cool. Crazy action. Of course still a few snipers hiding out all day but so much other stuff as well. I took my Sentry drone and marked the crap out of them. One camper I even kept buzzing with my drone and he had to stop sniping to keep swatting me away.

Same here, only had half an hour or so, but it was fun. I have to get more used to the controls/aiming to get better, but as I was going I was killing more and more.

Also need to look into the battle points stuff more, I like that aspect of the game, buying things with points you earned.

Re: Homefront (360/PS3)

I am definitely getting this game. Man, between this, BF2, NBA2k, MLB2k and COD and then in April Mortal Kombat, I don't think I will be bored for awhile!! lol

Re: Homefront (360/PS3)

After two days now I am still loving this game. The servers are getting ironed out, at least on the 360. The graphics are nowhere near as bad as people make them out to be. I actually like the graphics somewhat in this game.

I love the movement in this game too. The momentum is awesome. I hate in CoD how you can run, turn and keep sprinting like Newton's laws don't exist. In this game you actually have to take a few steps before reaching full speed, when turning you start off slow and gain speed, and when you are in mid air you can't somehow instantly change directions. The movement just feels really well done and probably better than BC2 in my opinion.

The sound is also done very well. I still haven't decided if it sounds better than BC2, but it definitely competes with it. Easily a lot better than any other FPS out there except maybe the BC games.

As for gameplay, I love it. It has a small blend of CoD and BC2, but has its own unique feel to it as well and it all converges to make a great game. The hit detection is better than any other game I have ever played. I also like how you have to lead your shots like in BC2, but not nearly as much. These bullets actually travel fast like real bullets. And you can see each individual bullet someone shoots by you which is really cool.

Overall I am really enjoying this game and it should probably be able to hold me over until BF3. If you are a fan of the BC2 series I recommend this game. If you enjoy the CoD games more, you may want to rent this and see how you enjoy it.

I can see this game being the next BC2. Comes out, has server issues. Many people trade it in day one because of the "silly graphics" or terrible servers, "sluggish movement"(which is really just called momentum), etc. But then the servers get fixed and some people end up buying it back. Others wait until its cheaper and then buy it and say they wish they had bought it earlier.

I think a lot of my frustrations come form poor connections and lag. Hopefully the servers and patches will smooth all that out.

At first I was all gung ho on this game and then I was discouraged and as more people level up and the servers started working.... I can totally agree with this post. I'm not OMG over the moon on it like I was when BC2 first hit, but it's starting to resonate with me.

I think a lot of my frustration came from poor connections and lag. As the servers get smoothed out (and patched) hopefully it gets better as I think it plays well with good connections.

For you guys that have unlocked battle commander mode, what's the biggest threat that you ever became? I just had an awesome match but only got to 3 stars.

I got to 4 stars twice. The most frustrating one though was when a game ended when I needed 1 more kill to get that 5th star. Worst part was I was chasing a guy and had just brought up my sights to shoot.

Re: Homefront (360/PS3)

How are the PS3 servers so far?

I'm thinking of trading Killzone 3 for this. Not really feeling it.
