Imagine how glitchy beta would be if Dice opened up with Caspian Border.

Ok, so who here thinks there will be a Homefront type of issues at launch? Surely EA can predict that right??

so i unlocked the EOD bot for the engineer class last night and tried it out just to see what you can do with it. i rolled right past all of the defenders with it and armed a crate and no one on the other team knew what to do. apparently you can arm and disarm crates with it as well as repair or damage vehicles. not a whole lot of use for it in the Beta but it is pretty cool.

I would love to talk defensive strategy on metro. I have a various strategies for holding up a defense on the first 3 stages, If the other teams gets to the 4th stage you are pretty much screwed anyways.

The hardest part is the first phase imo. Too much hiding in bushes for both teams.

Agreed

The clan would run shop on Rush. If you get with a good group right now, you can run through the map if you are attacking and hold strong when defending.

It's not too hard on the defending side if you have a good squad that communicates. Multiple times me and a few people stopped them from getting a single crate on the first phase.

My friend and I hold down A every time on the first portion. We set up shop behind the wall near the bridge, I think my average KD ratio there is 15-2. It gives you a great vantage point of wall side and courtyard

Sorry this is so blurry, but this is by far my best game. Finally found a key bind I'm comfortable with. No more running around like a man with a walker.

PC.

I've played it on all three platforms. PC is better looking by far, but it's a pain to get in a game for some reason. Especially if you are trying to get in with friends as well.

Damn. I suck at this game. i've never really played Battlefield games. I'm pretty much a COD guy. So far I've yet to get over 6 kills and usually have around 10-12 deaths.

If I actually am able to see an enemy before they kill me, it seems like it takes forever for me to actually kill them, while it takes them just a few bullets. I know thats because I suck, but i've never struggled this much with a game before.

Keep plugging away, on the surface it has every reason to resemble COD game-play but things are just a bit different. One of things I really noticed that is during the transitions standing-crouch-prone, you can't fire a weapon, which is pretty marked different from COD where you can fire no matter what you are doing pretty much.

yea, also, they gravity would seem like a pretty minor difference, but it definitely has a decent effect on my shooting, especially sniping.

Its really fun, but i've just had the hardest time actually being able to see anybody that isn't right in front of me.
