I HATED the slide that said that gameplay pace will be closer to BFBC2 than BF2 because "Modern shooter fans demand a faster pace".

The best thing about BF2 was that it was more of a simulation than a regular arcade-like FPS. I love how in BF2, sometimes it is smarter to be patient, than to just jump in firing. And the times when things actually get quiet and slow...the feeling of not knowing when it will get hot again...that is what made BF2 such a great game.

If I want to play a faster paced FPS, there is always Quake, Unreal, Halo, and who knows how many more crap games out there to choose from.

Just as predicted by everyone, DICE will never manage to even come close to BF2. They COULD...but they won't.

This is just depressing...

I've never seen my PM inbox spammed so much for a beta key.

I handed it out already, sorry guys, wish I had more of 'em.

And above your tomb, the stars will belong to us.

Without reading the rest of the thread, I'm going 'meh.'

Play for free, but pay for upgrades and no prone is what I'm guessing.

I think most of the pay stuff is cosmetic but time will tell. and yes no prone which I could care less about. I thought I would hate the no prone in Bad Co but I actually dont mind it. the thing I hate the most so far is that you cant double tap w to run. it's a decent time killer game if you are stuck somewhere with a laptop and nothing to do.

Well, when they started Battlefield Heroes, they said that paying for items is not necessary, as those won't have any advantage.
They dropped their own rule after a year or so.

so this is how EA kills off Bf2. fuckers.

It is very poor at the moment tbh the match making sucks balls & you can't aim down the sights of the gun as all you get is a fuzzy view not to mention the disappearing mouse cursor before you even get in the game. It is still in beta so we will see.

Judging by the number of people who have responded to this, I take it this view is in the minority.

And does anyone even still play BF2?

Some of the pay content includes weapons with higher % crit's, speed and armor upgrades, etc.
