yeah where the tunnel filled with flames is, theres a pipe above it, use the plasma caster on the pipe to fracture it and it spills water on the fire!

We will also have news on an additional feature we know many of you have been waiting for which is now ready for a closed Beta test!
Huh, wonder what this is??
Seriously though, if it is going into closed beta now, wouldn't the news be that they will be available to everyone
It'll probably be the dedicated servers for multiplayer.

Exactly. There's no confusion to be had here...for most of us.

what about the issue of plugging in a 360 pad which supposedly gives you auto aim even if you use mouse and keyboard!?
