skip it its crap.

there is no server browser u have to use a web browser, the options cannot be changed unless u are alive in game, the graphics are poor while u play everything feels fake and looks kinda real but not so it looks really strange, it has COD style points and HP, and best of all they brought back prone but also brought back dolphin diving and the maps (in the beta) are not made to have prone so there are alot of glitch spots were they can shoot u but u cannot shoot them


this could be the worst game of the year, its almost as bad as war for cybertron last year.

Well, it is a beta, after all.

The default map (Metro) is pretty lame, infantry only so not that exciting. Haven't personally tried Caspian Border yet (password protected servers, but pass is leaked). But that map seems to deliver the good ol' BF experience

I agree with you. Zan is being a little to judgmental. One...It is a beta. Two I'm not sure where he saw dolphin diving. The way they implemented going from prone to crouch to upright its kinda hard to dolphin dive if you can at all. I haven't seen anyone do it in the matches I have played. Zan if you have seen it could you provide vid footage?

He does have a point about the option selection. Its extremely dumb IMO to have it only be available when you are active on a map. Half the time you get shot right in the middle of changing video settings, audio etc. Might as well give an achievement for surviving when in option menu. It really should be available when you are in the main menu screen or in the screen where you select where you want to spawn / change load outs, etc BEFORE you go into the game.

I don't have too much of a problem with the broswer format. Its pretty cool, and for the most part smooth. Only real peeve I have is that it opens multi windows of Explorer and sometimes I have to actually look to see where the window the game is running is on my desktop lol.

As for Zan saying game could be worse then War for Cybertron...Umm yea I don't know what his tastes in games are but War for Cyber tron was a pretty cool ass game with a decent MP. Only prob was Activision just said FU to the PC side and never supported it after launch. smh.

Quiting when its just the beta is ludicrous. Enjoy should wait for the full game to drop then turn in his resignation. Common sense. Sheesh lol
