Oh dear. Kept quiet up until now about the alpha as I wanted to watch the videos and read feedback from those participating. I was excited about this game but not anymore. 3d spotting looks like a built in wall hack (player shooting through thick black smoke and kills enemy miles away is just one example I have seen). Looks like whenever you meet another player both will drop to the floor and spin around shooting like some Wesley Snipers character in one of his movies. It's looking more like CoD in my view. Lots of flashy popups with silly awards. Haven't seen any real squad play just a load of one many army types firing off their noob tubes at empty spaces hoping they will hit someone.

See this is what happens !!! All of what you said is not true, the 3d spotting is not a built in wall hack and as plenty of people WHO'VE ACTUALLY PLAY IT have said its not as bad as it looks.

The players "dropping to the floor" I've no idea what you mean? If you mean Dolphin diving then i've not seen it EVEN THO I'VE PLAYED 7+hour.

Lots of flashy pop ups? What flashy pop ups... you couldn't be more wrong, unlike cod you dont get an unlock or a perk upgrade every 5 kills, you have to work to unlock your equipment.

I've only seen two people with a noob tube!!

Do me a favour go away and come back when you've played it.... this constant negativity is what destroy's games!!

I'm gona try and stay away from this thread until the full game comes out, as i am counting on this game to make sure i dont sell my PC and so far i REALLY REALLY like what i see!!!

For serio?



Although ARMA looks fantastic and I did try it when it was released, just couldnt get into it, too much distance between objectives/enemies, walking for 40 mins and seeing no one except on CQB maps. May be a great mil sim but not comparable realyl to what BF is offering.

I know they are different, but that is the appeal. Bf was good for retarded shooting while merry on a Friday. This this alpha is to retarded. I want squad play, medics, etc.

Maybe public squad play is dead now, something I will only get with my clan.

Good for you that you like it, but I have an opinion and am sharing it, thank you. You cant tell people to "go away" and write in capital letters just because they have a different view from yourself.

If you haven't ACTUALLY played the game how can you comment on what OTHER people have posted?

If you've played then i take it back. But what you've said is far far from what people are actually moaning about.

So wait there.... Answer this instead of selected replies.... you've already condemn the game without having played it?

It might not have everything from BF2... but grow up man, this isn't 2005 there are a few things missing but there are some new added features which make up for it!!!

I dont even notice the bloody comm rose along with the other stuff for BF2, the infantry stuff is outstanding!

lol you didn't even notice the commo-rose, I suggest you never really played on pub servers then and was more than likely a karkand 24/7 player, and the dumb social key is no replacement for it. 100% health regen in the sequel to BF2 is just sad. You love BC2, I hated it with a passion coming from BF2, different strokes for different folks.

What is it then when you can get kills in the pitch black or through heavy smoke just by aiming directly below the distinct triangle. I'll do some vids and put this debate to rest.

I don't mind about not getting into beta's and alpha testing, but the modern notion of getting thousands of seemingly random people into the testing bothers me in the respect that I wish they'd just be transparent about the required criteria, even if that's just saying it's entirely random, rather than hinting at things like signing up for the newsletter etc etc.

They have said that you need to be signed up to the BF newsletter and have a BF veteren status. That's it.

Have you plowed many hours into BF2 / BC2 / MOH?

Most peeps I know who have been invited to Alpha testing have put in some considerable time on those games, especially BF2.
