I wish they'd release a general Beta of the game so I can see if it's worth buying!!

I don't understand the logic in asking me to buy MOH to get BF3 Beta.....

Hope it goes back to Battlefield 1942 size maps with jets and helos, MLRS etc, that was pretty epic.

Hover a Mini bird over a flag then 4 guys parachute in hehe good times.

First in game footage trailer (albeit 5 seconds of actual play and 50s of padding)

To me that looks absolutely awesome, but then again they wouldn't make the trailer look rubbish would they!

Holy st, that looks unbelievably good. They say its actual gameplay, I bloody well hope it is! The part where they are running down the alleyway after busting the door just does it for me.

God I can't wait for this to be released!

How come?

I've used Steam for a fair few years now (mainly for CS:s), and havent had too many issues to recall.


Says it all about my steam experience...... laugh

OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH! I cant wait for this to be released.

Upgraded graphics card and to windows 7 in preperation lol. Can't wait to get back to proper BF sized maps, Jets, teamplay etc.

I seriously hope seat switching will work smokin used to seriously annoy people on 2142 by flying solo and destroying them on my own.

Nope, all they do is p**s me off because I don't want MoH I want BF3 Beta!! Now, if they included the BF3 beta with BF2 that would make a bit more sense, but not with a totally different game.

Yeah...updates can be a pain sometimes. But off-peak times usually see little problems I've found.

But Steam Friends is a great way of talking and contacting people without having to close the game window.

Find it quite annoying that there is no way to 'chat' to friends in BC2 except when in a game.; I.e.: main screen chat option frown



Can't agree more about the 'Proper' map sizes again......64 player combat is also somethin I REALLY miss biggrin

Me too. 64 player Suez Canal Titan matches were ferocious.

32 player attacking with 32 player defending. Used to lag like an absolute dog if the comanders moved the titans so they were right next to each other.

Love PR but this looks amazing and if those tactics are the AI then it will be ace as a singleplayer too!

But with those levels of detail and dynamics muliplayer will be brilliant

new pc this autumn I think !

I am looking forward to this too, but I hope the focus is still on multiplayer. All the trailers seem to be very pretty single player.

I do love the overdriven distorted thumping at the end of each trailer though, makes me excite.

I don't believe I've cared more about a game which was just a glorified capture the flag than Battlefield 2.

Thinking of BF3 gives me a "fizzy" feeling...
