Never been a cod fan anyway, Bad company 2 is awesome, And i thought i spent some hours on that, However this does look to be the best game ever and i can't wait :)

 

I should add that battlefield bad company 2 is currently reduced to £12.99 at play.com for anyone who is interested in some great online gaming.

Looking forward to this game :)

Trailer looks awesome.

Even though i play COD, its good for a 10minute fix, the battlefield games have always been where it's at, i lost 800+hrs of my life playing battlefield2 on the pc and as far as i'm concerned nothing has come close to that kind of gameplay yet, this looks like its a serious contender :)

While it looks excellent, and I was interested at first, there are a few issues that spring to mind:

1) EA pulled it from Steam et al, you have to now sign up to their own online store and do everything through their online service.

2) With EA's track record, the servers will last until precisely the time a new version comes out and then they will be junked, leaving you with an unplayable game - check the T&Cs of their online offering, you only have the game semi-guaranteed as available for about 18 months, after that they can drop it and keep your money and you can never play it again :blink:

3) Again, another problem is EA's track record with support, patches, fixes, and things that need doing to cover...

4) ... the fact you'll be playing against scumbags on the internet who are intent on cheating, griefing, spawn camping etc. :(

 

If the game was going to be supported into the future, and have decent server support, and "friend" based gaming interfacing and basically all the stuff Steam has, I'd be on it in an instant. Alas, it won't have any of these, it'll have a lashed up console port travesty that'll never work properly, and enable all the idiots online who like to ruin gaming fun, and EA won't ever do jack about it because they have your money already. But I'm sure you'll be able to buy bigger guns for real money :rolleyes:

 

I'm annoyed as I want to play it, but I'll only be encouraging them :)
