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.

Because it's an alpha not a demo, they're not going to put in a big conquest map, they're saving that for beta or release.
 
Took a couple of hours but I think I've got the hang of it :)

And good fun it is too, just takes some time to get used to it. Can't say it's what I was expecting, but then it's a small rush map. Bring on CQ!

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

I really hope so as has been said it is nearly impossible getting the first base.

Also the subway tunnel part is very annoying as an attacker, as the defenders just go prone at all the corners in the dark spots looking at the entrance with the big bright light shining in making it easy as pie to see people coming in. And obviously it is impossible for the attackers to see the defenders lying on the ground in the dark.

Also is it just me or is the tank in the first base far too quiet and quick (obviously [hopefully] this will be fixed for the beta/final game).

And another thing, people seem to run far too quick as well, the speed in BC 2, which people sprinted at without the light weight pack was perfect IMO.

Download the Quadro driver here -

Download the modified nv_disp.inf file here -
http://www.mediafire.com/?76v7gfc7ppcekpx [mediafire.com]

1.) Run the Nvidia driver install. It will fail but it will unpack into c:\nvidia
2.) Go to C:\NVIDIA\DisplayDriver\275.65\WinVista_Win7_64\In ternational\Display.Driver and copy nv_disp.inf here. It will prompt to replace the existing file, do so...
3.) Go to C:\NVIDIA\DisplayDriver\275.65\WinVista_Win7_64\In ternational and run setup.exe

With a good team you can steam roll all the way to the forth set but a good defence will stop you
 
Whenever I sign into Origin to play BF3 alpha, it says playing game but a black screen just appears in the battlelog page stating 'update in progress' and nothing happens lol. Has it crashed or what?

I agree with this, but while it's very difficult as an attacker to get past the first two sections, the last two sections are much more fun to play.

Sprinting does seem a little too fast to me, makes it damn difficult as a sniper I know that much, the starter rifles are lame :(
