All you need to do is press F

Your active soldier is not ready for duty.
Please choose a PC soldier in the top menu.

I get that when trying to join a game

I was getting that for a while. Strangely, clicking the forums link made my soldier active...

Really? I have found it quite difficult to hide in the bushes effectively. Only on one occasion has prone caused me to rage and that was when I thought a prone guy was a dead body...then he stabbed me *******

Yup, it is the one main thing for me, which is ruining the game, just like with raven and the spotting (I don't like the spotting either and it doesn't seem much better in this than BC 2, it should be optional on servers anyway and I will be playing on HC so not too bothered).

Yeah that as well, have ran past a few people, which I thought were dead, then I get shot or knifed by them :mad:

Yup, sadly. You only get the animation if you stab from the rear or the side. What is the point in having selectable knife and grenade but also having a quick button that does exactly the same thing. I was hoping that you would need to use selectable knife to get the animation and tags but nooooooooooooo. Gamers these days are too derp for that.

I imagine that on other maps it will be better. I really cannot understand why they picked this map it really it pretty poor.

Also has anybody noticed that you CAN shoot out the lights in the subway tunnels...although it is a massive waste of ammo and offers no tactical advantage.

Whenever i now load battlelog it changes to a black screen with 'Update in Progress' in the title with a broken image icon...

Going back to Global Agenda and gonna try BF3 later/tomoz instead now servers are busy as it'll only get worse

Got an un-expected email this morning inviting me to test out this Alpha build, so hope it's worth the download.
