The jets look like they're flying in slow motion, not to mention they're flying super low. Hope there isn't a height ceiling like in BC2...

Also, only 5 flags on 64 player map? And they're not even that spread out from one another. What are the 32 player versions of the map gonna look like?

Bah, I guess there is no hope left for a true BF game.

The jets look to behave exactly like they did in BF2. BF2 also had a height ceiling.

Most BF2 64-player maps had 5 flags if I remember correctly.
 
Remember this is primarily an infantry game + vehicles, not a vehicle simulator with dumbass infantry running around to be slaughtered. I'm sure flying up to 20,000 feet in your jet and dropping bombs endlessly on people would be fun for the pilot, but not for the majority of the players on the ground.

Yeah totally!! Because like, we all know 1 map = whole game, like, totally!!!!1


+1 for complaining for the sake of complaining.
+1 for criticizing everything they do and making every DICE decision a no-win catch-22
+1 for rose-tinted BF2 glasses.


You want BF2? Then go play BF2.

He was making very mature criticisms about the game from the current trailers that we have. That's what a forum is suppose to be. Then you make it look like he's complaining about every single aspect for no reason. He's in the middle, you're on the far end of the spectrum and not allowing a single bad remark about DICE. How is that fair?

What characteristics do the helicopters have that make you disappointed?

There are certain aspects that I believe should be carried over from BF2, but I do agree that we need a new game, not an old game with new graphics. However, they did use the Battlefield name assuming it was a sequel. We are completely justified in comparing it with the game we all love.

The flight characteristics in BF2 were perfect. There was no reason to change them, other than to make it easier for console players to fly. I'm not sure how I can express that any different. If you've flow helicopters in both games, they're completely different.

+1 and absolute truth as someone that has spent 100+ hours in helis in BF2.
 
Best part, hands down:

Why do you have to act like a child?

All I did was make some observations that I'm not very fond of in the video. God forbid I state my opinion on a discussion forum.

Will it actually be like that in the game? Who knows....I hope not, but we won't know until we get to play the beta.

Grow up.
 
So, how is everyone going to play this? Obviously Mouse/KB while on foot. But are you going to switch to XBOX360 controller once in a vehicle? Or what about a Joystick with rudder control, etc?

A console controller has no place in any FPS.
 
Multiplayer fact sheet states there will be only 9 maps. And the game modes are CQ, CQ 64, Rush, TDM, Squad DM, and Squad Rush. No Titan-esque mode? :(

That's a little disappointing. I was hoping for 10-12 maps.

Does that include back to karkand?
 
Nothing has been able to re-create that feeling when I first saw the HL2 tech demo. Until now, seeing this made me so happy.
 
That little dip in confidence I've felt in this game over the last fortnight is starting to rise again. Hurray!

You know what, you're 100% correct. I remember seeing all the footage leading up to HL2's release back years ago and feeling the same way. This BF3 footage today gave me that same feeling. Too cool man. :D

Jets flying at full jet speed would mean you wouldn't be able to turn or manuver around unless they made the map 10 times larger. Flying really really high would mean youd be almost untouchable.
