This game is all about teamwork and this is the aspect that the Beta currently doesn't implement really well.

If there was an in-built squad management and joining your platoon/friends would actually work, with a little bit of help from some voice chat software and a bunch of enthusiasts willing to work together, the game could be golden.

As it is now, it's all a bit chaotic with K;D whores running around and ruining the gameplay.

We need other maps to test the real battlefields.

BF has always had dorks who don't play as a team. In fact, it is famous for it, especially BF2. You'd always see some clagnut jump in a transport and fly/wheel off into the sunset, abandoning it at a hill so they could snipe one or two people before the round ends.

It is part of the game, albeit a crappy part of it.

If they say they can't, request to speak to someone else. I've changed my Origin name 3 times now without problems.

There's more teamplay, dropping ammo/med packs, reviving people and squad tactics in BFBC2 atm.

It's a true Battlefield game, it should emphasize teamplay.

I love teambalancing too, had a game where there were 11 vs 16 a and the difference was getting larger every minute.

Or spawn camping with 12x scopes. That also works very well on the Metro map.
 
How hard is it :o

Shivam: Hi, my name is Shivam. How may I help you?

Shivam: Thank you for contacting EA regarding your request to change your EA Master ID.

Shivam: Unfortunately, at this time we do not support the changing of the Master ID. Changing the EA ID can cause account/server ID corruption issues, which could prevent you from playing some of the games you are currently active in.
Shivam: I apologize for any inconvenience that this may cause.
2301340289: I see can you advise why this was possible before?
Shivam: Our tools are under maintenance.
Shivam: We will change your master id name for sure.
Shivam: For that i request you to please contact us after 3 to 4 days.
 
As you may know, the Open Beta for the highly anticipated Medal of Bad Company 3 started on September the 29th and it has turned out to be one of the most successful Betas we've seen throughout the history of gaming.

Quotes from the creators of successful Bad Company Franchise:


Quote:
We're so glad the Medal of Bad Company 3 Beta has been a huge success, everyone's just loved Operation Corridor, and we're just relieved it all turned out just fine with little minor bugs.

Quote:
Falling through the floor is a great new feature we added, it adds a whole new dimension (quite literally) to play in, we're looking forward to adding flags or M-Com stations under the map.

Quote:
Another brilliant idea we had from one of the best at DICE was the feature to randomly spawn without a weapon or arms, this was commonly thought to be a bug but in fact, it makes the game a whole lot more realistic, sometimes there just aren't enough weapons (or arms) to go around in wars.

Quote:
Adding realism is a hard thing to do so what we did was that after you die, you will no longer be able to play Medal of Bad Company 3. If you attempt to do so, you will receive a BF3.exe has stopped working error or an error from Origin..no don't be silly people, it's not a bug.

The Medal of Bad Company 3 Beta was designed to stress test the EA servers and to iron out bugs and overpower issues before the final release and it's really impressive that even in the Beta build, there are little to no bugs apart from the tiny details that can be easily polished:

Members of the Community can't play due to errors with Origin
Majority of the Community can't play due to errors with the client
Battlelog issues - not being able to join games for no reason
Server issues - freezing, crashing etc.
No Squad management
Falling through floor
Spawning with no arms or weapon
