What are your thoughts so far? I like the map. I think I will enjoy it more one I get the PS3 back on the LCD. I had to connect it to an older TV and I don't know how I gamed for so many years with such a crappy picture.

It's not too bad however, he new controls are a pain in my ass. Dice needs to get rid of the battlelog menu for select. I keep pressing it to spot enemies lol. Btw I know it's r2 now but it doesn't make sense to me.

I agree on some of the controls but I do like how the stab and crouch buttons are aligned with all other FPS's. Now I won't get confused when switching between BF and COD

lol, I kept saying WTF. I would attempt to spot with select and got that damn battlelog menu.

This would have been nice back when I played CoD and switched between titles. Now that I've gone ahead and gotten used to the BF setup only (finally), they go changing it up on us.... It would be nice to have the option to set up the controller in the old format. I don't understand why they'd rearrange things and not give you the option of the traditional setup.
I did get a couple rubber knife incidents yesterday, along with having to "jump" over silly shit. The having to jump over non-obstacles thing was something I had thought they'd worked on, maybe it just needs some fine tuning yet.

I know Im not on PS3 but I hate the new flight controls, Im so glad that you can change it though. I think I crashed the first 5 times that I tried to fly, the tank controls are great though having the trigger to shoot is better than a bumper.

Good times for my first go at it. Definitely love the vehicle controls as well. I'm not reading into the issues to much right now since it's a beta, but hopefully the little nuances are already addressed.
Thanks for the tags, Tracker. LOL. Don't worry.... they don't count in the long run.

Is anyone able to see the tags that have been collected from others? I snagged shack's and max's a couple nights ago and I can't see them. The kill was saved though. I played a few rounds with Nordell last night and it was good times. Mardi was on for a few, I could hear him talking, then found out my Bluetooth was muted, sorry about that.

I dont think the custom tags system is working properly yet. I wasnt able to save my changes the other day, but then they showed up a day latter, then disappeared again.

I played a little today. I only got into some Domination games, but dang it's fast-paces. Environment seemed a little more destructible, and it handled well. Graphics looked really pretty.
I like the sniper rifle's flatter trajectory. I was mailing some people. I did get stuck on some small objects, so that was annoying. Overall pretty cool.

Yeah Battlefield takes forever to level up but to me, that's part of the allure. It keeps me coming back for more. It's my crack :mmph:

HELL YEAH....Raging and I were tearing it up tonight! I even took down a helo with my pistol, than the helo got stuck hanging by the tail off the building we were on! Good times! :peace:

Awww I wish you had a video of that. You mean you shot the driver out with a pistol?
I played a tiny bit last night. The transport choppers are beast flying around the skyscraper. Even more so if you can talk to them, which I didn't.

Yes I took out the driver. Raging and I were on top of the building across from bravo, raining hell on the enemy. The chopper thought he'd straff us, so Raging and I let loose on him. Raging got killed, and the helo started to turn and make another pass, BOOM, big mistake! What's funny is Raging was support, but his ammo packs kept falling through the ceiling, so I was out of ammo except for my pistol. That's all I need though.....:drum:

Yeah I think I spent more time last night trying to get ammo packs to "stick" than I did shooting at people. It's funny, I'd throw them down and then they would literally hop right up and jump off the building. Definitely some bugs to be worked out there. Either that, or there is an unusually steep learning curve for aiming and firing ammo packs.
Saw Ironhide pick the guy out of the chopper from my "I'm dead" cam. That was pretty sweet. And then it was just dangling off the edge of the building buy its tail, pointed straight at the ground.
I need to stop watching so much battleloggers and YouTube videos of BF, because I find myself goofing around more than usual and seeing what kind of cool stuff can be pulled off instead of PTFO. I realized I'm not so good at steering with the chute, but if I got better at it, I'd be able to do some cooler stuff.
How many RPG direct hits from above on the turret should the tank be able to take? Just wondering. I think I hit one four times and it didn't disable it or kill it or anything.
There was one time where there was an enemy tank left on the bridge unattended, so I ran up to it and hopped in. Big mistake. There were three enemy huddled up on the other side of it with a repair torch surprise party for me. I got a good laugh out of it. Clever. I should have known better.
I know I've said this a bunch of times, but I really like the map, except trying to get around B after the building falls. Hopefully you won't get stuck on so much stuff in the release version.

Yeah those ammo packs are like tennis balls they go all over the place after you throw them. The chute is a pain in the ass to steer this time around not that it was easy to do it in BF3. The tank HP is so random because it only takes like one C4 hit to blow up and RPG's are unknown really. I also find myself exploring the map and finding good places to snipe. I get stuck on the island part of B all the time and I cant get out of the imaginary hole. I hope they fix that in the final version of it.

You are not just singing Dixie Bro, the new ammo packs and health packs are made with rubber feet on the bottoms of those bags. The move and groove when u throw them. U gotta be real accurate if u are on a roof top. Ha.......
