This game will be great by the time it's properly released. Has a few bugs at the moment, nothing too serious though (apart from server list failures).

Don't be so quick to write off this game. I wasn't getting any lag, but if you were it might have been because we were playing on a server based in Frankfurt...

I think the game will be great. The beta has a few kinks but, overall seems to be fun. As for the comments about using whole clips and wht not, the trick is bursting the shots. Sniper takes two shots to kill unless u hit high torso or head shot and you must compensate for distance by aiming high, sometimes aiming above the target. The ak i didnt use muh but when i did i could take someone down with maybe three bursts. The engineer kit was nice, i like that gun the most out of the stock kits. If you aim high torso to head it will take someone down fast. two-three bursts. I also noticed at close range that gun is better when you hip fire. the melee is pretty sick. if u sneek up behind someone and they keep their back turned, you actually grab them by the head and slit their throat. the 203 isnt bad, it isnt anything like cod4. It is good for clearing out buildings. shar, rumple, beer, friar ,dingo and I were in there having a blast. we were dvided up into two squads and we were working together really well. it took us awhile to get the hang of what we were trying to do but, once we did we started getting the bombs plnted and pushing the defensive team back very  fast.

I'm sure the HP is just like in BF2 stop being a shitty shot and I'm sure it only takes 5-7 bullets to take someone full health down. Take your time on shots that's what made people good in BF2 is properly placing their bullets. Although, I haven't even touched the game and wont till March.

I love the smell of gunpowder and pussy. One brings you into this world, one takes you out, and I love the smell of both.

They fixed a few things...updated comments:

Fixed items....MAJOR improvement in gameplay
*cant look around when sprinting fixed!
*strafing from side to side is super slow moving better!
*sound seemed great on speakers but not so great on headphones sounds fine, just had to get back into Battlefield mode....just too noisy for headphones

Major game problems, that if not fixed, will prevent me from being excited about the game:
*cant toggle aiming down sites
*cant toggle crouch
*cant prone at all
*Cant strafe when running

Pros:
*overall graphics seemed great
*ran well on the pc

BFBC2 problems
*no hardcore mode....a clip to kill = fail

Beta issues:
*minor graphical glitches, but nothing to be worried about as this is a beta
*friends list is buggy and server list is down, so playing with friends is difficult

*cant toggle aiming down sites
Do you mean like click and it stays aimed or it aims as long as you hold it?

Yes, Aim as long as you hold it.  Not click--->aim--->click---sites down.  that way of doing things is nooberific.  Yet I DO want the opposite of that for squatting.  I dont want to have to hold the button down to squat.  That is annoying.

BTW, for those of you who have epic surround sound systems, please turn them on, take your headphones off, and crank it up.  This game is MEANT to be played with surround sounds and a sub.  Friggin EPIC.

*no hardcore mode....a clip to kill = fail



So are they lying when saying
"Q: One aspect of Bad Company 2's multiplayer which sounds really interesting is the hardcore mode. It sounds almost as if you're moving into ArmA, Op Flash territory…

PB: Yeah, it's more like that. Of course you can choose. You can choose if you want to play in this mode or not, but I can tell you that those layers of complexity, of how big the game is, really add to the whole thing. You can play the game your way, without trying to sound like a gimmick. Most of the things we're doing are feeding into player behaviours. Everyone at DICE is an individual. We don't want a game that is tailored to one specific person. We want it to be like: I like shooters, therefore I will like this game. How can we satisfy anyone?

Yeah, I have read whispers of that too.  Probably coming with the main game.  There are a lot of things that they can change to make it an epic game.  Lets hope they make the changes.
