yea i cant wait for the demo!! SICKKNESS!!

I really hope that the way the game sounds in most the videos (i.e. radio chatter) is really the way the game will sound. BC1 sounds kinda empty minus the explosions.

I'm stoked for this game. Been playing Battlefield games since they first came out, enjoyed BC1, and have been looking forward to this coming out since they announced it. If there is any day one purchase this year for me, this is going to be it (followed incredibly closely by ME2). Come March 2nd I'll actually have an enjoyable multiplayer game again to boot up...

I'm selling MW2 and getting this game. It just looks more fun to be honest. The 4 v 4 looks great!

I put in a pre-order at gamestop with the $10 off $59.99 coupon. Came out to $52.99 shipped after 6% tax. That's better then amazon's $56.99, but I'll cancel and switch if amazon comes up with a better deal.

Demo is up, 1.35 GB.

care to elaborate on this coupon? i did a quick search and couldn't come across anything...if you could point me in the right direction, that'd be great...

I believe the $10 off $59.99 coupon is over. It was "The Deal" several days back. Now it's just a free overnight shipping deal.

Thanks for the heads up on the demo. Will download it tonight.

Queuing up the demo now.

About 2 hours logged. Not going to buy.

They nerfed my attack helicopter. I can't even see its rocket cool-down timer and they give freaking APCs anti-air so I see no point in the nerf. That UAV has different controls to the helicopter which is dumb to make players learn 2 flight controls. Blackhawk was easy to fly, but I see no point why it's on the Defenders' side (last camp no less). And the camera for third-person (to land the suckers) is the worst.

Infantry combat still makes me want to play CoD:MW2; even though it says I have a 2.2 ratio (higher than CoD:MW2).

Cases still kick to the left, I swear I saw they kicked to the right in some videos, what happened DICE?

Using the stationary Anti-Tank missile and machine gun on the tank is so easy.

I'm glad that being hit doesn't put a red dot over your head anymore, but any competent sniper will spam the select button until he sees red.

Reviving teammates is very useful, something I wish CoD:MW2 had for those in "last/final stand".

I don't like how sluggish the BF games are, everything just feels slow compared to every other shooter. I'm gonna skip this.

My god this game is amazing. Sniping is actually fun. Being a medic is fun. This sounds like and feels like war. And that is a lot more than I can say for Modern Campfare 2

Played the demo for about two hours, and the speed at which the game progresses is definitely not for me. I couldn't stand the jittery frame-rate, either.

I played for an hour or two last night and was pretty impressed. Note that I've never played CoD, nor any prior Battlefield. However, I sucked big time. I wish the demo had a single player mode. Oh well.

I'm wondering if I was experiencing lag, though. I was standing right in front of someone and unloaded my gun into them, but they didn't die and then I died. Am I just a clueless newb, or was this a lag issue? OK, I *am* a clueless newb, but was this lag as well? I've got a DSL connection, but I don't really see lag in other games. For example I was playing Aegis Wing online last night as well and that played perfectly, not that it is anything remotely like Battlefield, and I've also played GTAIV online, without issues.

Burst shots are your friend.

Burst shots? What is that and how do you do it?

I mean don't just hold down the trigger and unload. Take controlled shots

played for a couple of hours and didn't come across any lag....some cheap deaths (stabbing a guy in the face only to take off 15% of his life while he kills me with one stab) but no lag. Voice chat would be nice
