Has anyone come across people using robot yet?

Yes, had some fun with it at first as everyone would just ignore it, really funny, I mean it was as if they couldn't see it. (Maybe it was bugged and they couldn't.:D)
Now every ****** shoots at it when they see it.

Not seen smoke grenades in game yet though, look really useful from the youtube vids.
 
Loving the beta. Getting some good kills and its really a lot of fun. Only issues are lagging and glitches. But to be expected with a beta. Good game a defo buy for me.
 
I realised this was a successor to BF2 when half your side select sniper class and contribute little other than frustration as point after point is claimed by the opposition :p

Some things will never change...
 
Where is the place to give feedback other than the qq forums

Also they said the squad thing will go through the battlelog, but even if they fix it if 2 of your friends join the server before you there won't be a way to get in the squad unless you leave the server and join together.. If that makes sense.

Question is from a gameplay point of view, how do you break these bad habits?

I say, no points given for kills and no k/d ratio's at the end of the game, just points based on objective gameplay.

Then the noobs that just camp all day, will be at the bottom of the score boards round after round with 0 points.

I think they would quickly start contributing to the team aspect of the game.

Winning the round is the only condition of success!

I personally think this game is awesome and better than expected!! It certainly competes with the old battlefields as I have them all. I'm also glad my system is playing it on high settings 2560x1600 res and getting 50 plus fps even into the 70's in doors. I'm looking forward to upgrading my build soonish for ultra high settings. Looking forward to the final release even more now!!

I've noticed that your HUD isn't scaled. Have you tried the "Open Screen Adjust" option in the menu?

So what is to blame for the laggy deaths? As it seems there is little benefit to running behind cover, or going prone behind terrain, as most of the time you end up dying after reaching a safe position.

Are the servers all just very laggy or is it massive lagging hit boxes?

Imagine if the points you earned in a match would only apply to your rank progression if your team won the match, would definitely be more rage in the chat :D

Theres a vid on youtube claiming the hit reg is now client side

 
I cancelled my pre-order. I'm just not that impressed with the game. Technically it is amazing but the gameplay is just incredibly boring in my opinion. Sneaking around at a snail's pace is just not exciting for me. I did play Caspian as well and the vehicles weren't that fun either. It's just not my kind of game.

Plus there are all the hitscan/latency issues that seem to plague it. I know it's a beta but these are the kind of issues that rarely get solved. Moments like emptying entire clips into someone then being two-shotted by them make my blood boil, and I'm not going to buy a game that makes me that angry. Rant over.
 
Strange i am begining to feel a hatred of this game begin to well up inside me.....

Maybe i will stick with R02, at least there folk wont be TK just to get in a vehicle so they can fly around and be even more useless than normal.
