It doesn't seem intuitive to me. Whatever I tried to do, the opposite happened.

I'm thinking the campaign gives you an opportunity, I may play that level if the campaign quite a bit

No, you are just the copilot. You don't fly the jet yourself in the campaign.

We had no problem getting into games. A few times when we would click on a server and it would tell us it was joining, we would get kicked to the campaign menu.

Battlelog has a party system, but so broke right now. It has the option to join a game "with party", but it just doesn't work. But it's there, so just a matter of time before they fix it.

So many key bind issues, can't even get into them.

Gorgeous game, though. Sound and everything. My k/d death is probably in the negatives right now, but still had fun last night.

It's legit. I didn't really have any issues other than the 360 servers crapping out.

Apparently if you got the limited edition you have access to the DAO-12 shotgun, which is a little overpowered, but it'll even out as everyone levels up.

ETA: DAO-12 normally unlocks at Lv 38.

Tell me about it. I've yet to really have a chance to pilot most vehicles myself, but others have not had that issue and have been destroying me with tanks.

It's rough right now, but so are most FPS's at launch. PC, right? Battlelog is a mess at the moment, so be prepared. Game is fun and pretty.

If you want some practice flying the choppers, do the co-op mission that is on the top right. One of you will fly the Cobra while the other is the gunner. I am a lot better at that now after wrecking a couple of times in that mode.

If I buy this game, and I have never played BF and I really don't play FPSs, how hard will it be before I can actually play online with any amount of competence

It's going to take some time. I'm a big fps guy, but wasn't a BF guy and it took me some time. However, there are lots of fun things to do online that keep it fun until you get proficient at everything. For a while I just played as a scout and spotted as many enemies as I could for teammates. I'd get a few kills, bu I would mark almost the entire other team and they would just be fodder. That gave me time to get use to gameflow and controls.

Looking at that comparison video, looks like the PC has a bit smoother graphics and more realistic lighting. Overall not a huge difference.

I have the PC copy as well but it's not my primary gaming system.
