We want to work and play together as a squad. Badly.
This squad oversight, if not adjusted by launch, will straight up chase me away from buying the game.

Lol as you want. He's got a point. If that isn't changed to a Bad Company 2 System or something similar this is going to be frustrating as hell.

It's funny how you can't read two simple sentences and get the point. I understand anyone talking negative about bf3 hurts you guys feelings so I'll make it clear. This game looks like SHIT compared to games released 5 years ago. Also I've been playing bf since the beginning. If you still can't understand, I don't know what to tell you. The textures look like half-life 1. Terrible. Fan boys attack!
The game is nothing like bf2. Here's a tip for you then (i don't know why you didn't figure this out on your own though) get the fuck out of the BF3 thread and back to your precious fossil of a game. That way we don't have to deal with your whining and you don't have to deal with BF3's god-tier graphics (assuming you're playing on a PC and not a 5 year old brick) OMG BAD GRPAHIX!  Grow up bro, you're acting like a child. Is that how "veteran" should behave? I can come where I want and post my opinion and there isn't a thing you can do. After all this is what the thread is for. It seems extremely childish and immature to get so upset over someone having a negative opinion on a game that isn't released. I've never seen such fan boy rage here with people even defending BW. Take a time out and how immature you sound. You know you're mature when you take negative comments about a fucking video game personally like it's an insult to you. I have never even touched a BF game before this beta lol, last FPS i played was q3. Trust me when i tell you i don't give a shit about COD vs BF-"fanboys". However, it does bother me when people join a thread dedicated to a certain game, with the sole purpose of talking down on it and when people who enjoy the game tries to defend it you call them fanboys etc. And when i called you on it you decide to take on the mature roll all of a sudden telling me to grow up and reflect on how immature i sound LOL Not even worth it, you look like enuf of a dick without me having to point it out. From a bystanders point of view you appear to be the arsehole in this argument, please stop Ya because some random guy getting upset over my opinion makes me an "arshehole". If you can't take criticism of a game without trying to attack people, maybe you shouldn't come to a topic made to discuss the game.
You do know that "arse" is a word that means "butt" right? And you do know that by responding to the person who called you an "arsehole" the way you did, you just more firmly confirmed that you were the arsehole.... And I'm just a guy who came here to see if I could see whether I should buy CoD or BF, and I see another war... From a guy who's sole obsession right now is BW, I think you're the one who is overreacting to everyone's comments to your posts...

Been hitting the beta hard
The squad ui needs to be fixed, we need to be able to invite and pick for our squads.. this game is going to NEED that for the newer players coming to BF playing on big pub servers
The minimap is awful.. dunno if it's just me but it's just not useful, it needs to be clear and easy to read at a moments glance. The expanded map is even worse... if the maps are as big as DICE are saying they are then it's going to be a tool everyone needs to use to to plan a route or see how the battle is going, currently it's just ugly and just not easy to read fast enough
Besides those whines though.. I managed to play a couple of hours on a caspian border server before they were taken down, and just that short period has made this game a must buy for me

You can they already said in the full release of the game you can leave squads, have private squads, etc. There will also be the cammo thing that was from BF2 (like need ammo and stuff).
And yes the maps are huge or at least caspian is. Very big .
Don't worry though guys they already said you can make your own squads, leave, and switch teams it'll all be in the actual release.

Looks awesome. ^^
Needs a nose, though.

Is that a arm flexing turned on it's side, then a circle and triangle added to it, along with a mane added to the bottom of the arm?

So many glitches, it freezes constantly, fall through the floor nonstop, i cant beleive they even put this out in beta. Still waiting for the PC version to download so i can try it out as well. If its not 100x better than the 360 version theres no way I'll be buying it. Very sad especially because BF2 is my favorite shooter ever, and i love almost all the other installments  I honestly feel like people who don't like this game are missing the complexity and depth of it. Even Metro is incredible infranty combat for many reasons, but it isn't CoD in the slightest. I played bf2 competitively for 4 years, i own BF:BC2, as well as BF:2142 for the PC, im not looking for CoD, im looking for a Battlefield game, one thats more like BF2 than bad company, and one thats not full of dumb glitches.... You need to educate yourself on the meaning of "Beta". The entire purpose of it is to make sure people find glitches and bugs so they can be sorted out in time for the final release. And you'll need to educate yourself on the meaning of "Beta". especially since the "Beta" is a mere ~3 weeks from release, seems awfully close to have to pump out a million+ cds, infact a close to "finished" version is probably already in transit to the publisher.....
DICE will be patching the hell out of this game after launch, just like they did with BC2.. The BC2 beta was horrible and the game wasn't much better on release (despite people claiming that we shouldn't judge an "old" build -it wasn't; the retail needed the exact same patch as the beta to allow dual-core owners to actually have a decent experience). It took them months to make it as awesome as it is now.
You see, this is why I'm fond of platform-exclusives on consoles. They're made by people who know how to get the maximum out of the given hardware with the engine they use, and they're polished as fuck. Just the fact that games like Uncharted 2 and 3 and the Gears of War series look as good as they do on downright ancient hardware is proof of that. There's generally way more content on a console-exclusive or console-oriented game than on a PC game. PC devs have to pay so much attention to graphics and optimization for a myriad of different systems that they can't focus on what's important: content. Just look at the amount of stuff you can do with Halo: Reach. That's a DVD bursting with content. It's a game that is meant to be played for years by a lot of people. Same with Gears of War 3. A lot of stuff on it and a lot of stuff planned so people can continue playing it for years. The only two PC devs that actually do this as well are Valve and Blizzard. I mean, people are still playing Counter Strike and classics like Diablo 2, Brood War, Warcraft 3, World of Warcraft, or some Half Life or source mod.

im playing on PC and oh boy is it glitchy as hell. very hard to play right now. its beta so that is understandable. but I cant even get into the game sometimes due to freezes and crashes.
|
Neither Valve or Blizzard planned on brood war or half life 1. Valve didn't even make counter strike. Yes, I agree with a lot of what you're saying but its also just rosy retrospection!
Or maybe I just wholeheartedly disagree with Halo: Reach being a game I would want to play for longer than a month. Reach=Halo 3=Halo 2; Everything that came after Halo 2 was really just an expansion and mod to me
Edit: I seem to be the only one that hasn't had a glitchy or laggy experience. I mean I don't connect to high ping servers.. so there's that, but I am a little confused about the glitching complaints. I have by all means medium/high settings hardware including a very old quad core processor but no glitches :O

Me too actually, i honestly haven't had many problems at all :S sometimes the player models glitch after they die but that is pretty much the only problem i have encountered so far.

I want to blame EA for this to be honest and DICE's assumption that their BF3 game will go far or last very long and hence the browser-base server selection.

BF2 was a terrible game when it was released, for those who actually played it at the start and not the people looking at it with rose coloured glasses
BF3 isn't even released yet, its in BETA. That said it isn't even a terrible game as far as infantry combat goes
First stage of metro is annoying to play but thats not imbalance thats just how FPS works. the other stages are fine
