We will see, people are very vocal about that on the official forums and I doubt that will go by unnoticed. For the sake of DICE I can only hope they will include BC2 like squad controls.

Same, I hear about these patches all the time, but I havent seen a single one yet.
Just had a bug to crash my system on 360. Was playing defender on the second to last area before you get out of the subway and all of a sudden my framerate dropped from 30 to 10-15 and would not go back up to 30 even if i looked at the floor or stared at a wall. Game kept grinding until it became a sub 10fps slideshow and then proceeded to crash my xbox after I died and went back to the loadout menu.
Just played a match where two snipers appeared to be prone but were moving as if they were sprinting. God damn Dice, come on. They just sat there and spawn camped the entire round and even when we killed them they'd come back since it was a bitch and a half to hit them moving like they did.

I was raging so fucking hard right now at this douche in a game I was in. He was doing nothing the entire round he would sit behind some rocks in the beginning of the map trying to snipe people but he wasn't helping anything when the bombs were attached and shit. Anyway he was a squad leader too so he was wasting a spot, people were spawning on him and it just ended up spawning them at the beginning of the map.
So anyway then we get underground and this fucking idiot is kneeling moving slowly forward when NOBODY ELSE is around. Like I'm watching him as I'm dead he's the only squad leader alive but he's nowhere near the action. Then he goes on top of some ledge and just lays there hoping to see someone to snipe and I'm raging I tell him to stop camping like a little bitch and move forward/do something and he doesn't respond. He eventually dies I spawn at him and knife him until he dies, then I do it again when he spawns, then continue the game as normal since I felt justice was served.
Am I taking the game too seriously or do you guys hate when people play like that as well and don't help the objectives/do nothing.

Something that has started to annoy me is the voices used in this game. Before I heard something along the lines of "Be advised, I errr, I think I spotted enemy infantry err yes I did". What is this?
Also where are the glorious shouts of MEDIC on the field when someone goes down? Where's the ammo / health request feature gone. Mega Sadface

No I hate campers too. I really wish the sniping class would just be eliminated from these games completely as the ratio of abuse to actually being useful is like 80/20. The only thing they were even good for in BC2 was for the motion mines and the rare mortar strike.

Well look at it this way. You either rage at some one for either being bad at the game, not knowing how to play or just being annoying for various reasons.Angry Fork said:
Or you can just spawn as recon, put down a mobile spawnpoint and move on with your life.

Than why not release a demo a week before retail if you want to win people over? Why release it a month before in such a buggy state? To me the simplest explanation is the one that makes the most sense. Which is that it's a beta with the main focus on stress testing and identifying, prioritizing, and squashing the most prevalent bugs.
desu said:
You're right, people are judging this game based on this beta, and they're being pretty harsh about it too. Which I'm guessing is exactly why DICE has to clarify "What a beta is" in the first place.
What the heck I can't launch the beta because supposedly my Nvidia drivers aren't up to date....
Except they are up to date!!
Oh it just let me into a game while I was typing this. It sat at joining server for a good 15 minutes, apparently.
Oops just kidding now it crashed.
wtf man

No. Did you not play the beta on consoles? You make your squads by game invites then you join a server.

was playing with 4 friends in a squad on 360 several times.TCRS said:
Wow, there's no squad system in PC/console in this?
What the fuck DICE? :lol Are they really that worried that PS3 GAF would steamroll everyone that they have to make us bend over backwards to steamroll anyway?

So this still happens on consoles? It's weird, this was very, very common on PC at the beginning, but it seems to pretty much disappeared for me now. It did seem like it was only happening on some servers though, kinda like the lag issue on Caspian - some would play like a dream, whereas others were shitting themselves constantly.

ESPECIALLY when you can get auto-balanced to the same side over and over. last night, one of the people in my party defended 5 games in a row, 2 defended 4 games in a row, and my squad attacked 3 games in a row. it was crazy!ultron87 said:
remember how wild BC1 was with squads? it's like that but WORSE!TheSeks said:
