You really think its gonna be playable that soon? This is DICE, dog. Id say xmas-ish.

I'm not going to be playing this much more till the game actually comes out. Thank god I will be so busy with work now.

Tizni and I saw some crazy ass glitches that people seem to have found out how to exploit.

This is gold. Pure gold. 20 some days till launch. One week till it goes to the shipping presses. Just delay the fucking game DICE:

One of my favorite things is how the flashlights and lasers look. So cool

Tried to play a bit this morning and got stuck in a squad that kept glitching the rocks in the first section where they were under the rocks just sniping and couldn't be killed. Couldn't get into a different squad so I was stuck either spawning on them or starting all the way back at base.

Also ran into getting one shotted way too much and from a distance. Too many people have found how to exploit glitches because I wasn't running into this the first couple of days. Tizni and I were running into this problem last night as well. Put 2-4 shots in a guy and nothing yet you get downed in 1.

I'm not really a fan of the flashlight. I dig the laser cause it kind of blinds you, but the light is just way overpowering. Everyone is running around with it, and it even blinds you outside. Also idiot teammates will leave it on when you are in the same room and blind you as well.

Yeah, it's just something I haven't seen done in an FPS before.

I killed someone with a smoke grenade earlier. It ruled.

I did play a bit more and didn't notice too much problems other than usual BS beta (alpha) crap. I guess my main problem was I was actually able to get in a squad with some ppl those first 2 days, and now it's just run and gun that I have to play solo. I'm loving some of the engineer guns, but without vehicles to fix and try to blow up, I'd rather just play medic or support for now. I've got a busy week ahead of me, but Tuesday night I have to pull an all nighter (gotta be up by 4) so I will be on then.

Just delay the damn game. It does not not need to come out this season. It will sell just fine in spring. Pretty sure bad company 2 did ok not coming out during the holidays.

It 100% has to be server side. Today I joined one server and went thru nearly every floor. Joined another - no floor glitching at all, joined with a friend easily, and played for 2 hours straight.

The guns rule. They all feel so different from each other. Unlock the Scar and see how different it feels from not only the other engineer guns but also the other iterations of the Scar in other games like Modern Warfare 2 or even Bad Company 2. They nailed nailed nailed gun weight and recoil. Recons can now play as an actual recon. Sneaking behind enemy lines, dropping beacons, forming a perimeter around objectives. I never played sniper in any BF but I like it here and taking recon to the front lines.

Oh and smoke grenades + infrared scope = godly. So so cool.

Clean up the 1 billion damn bugs and gimmie this gameplay on a wide open vehicle map. Going to be amazing.

Not sure about that. They knew what they were doing.

Not sure what the whole one shot death is going on though. I'll get a ton of kills but hardly ever kill someone in one shot. I'll see the guy who killed me in one shot way across the map with no scope, when i spot people and put 2-3 in them (the x pops up) they somehow pop me in one.
