Any word on the drive able Camaros?
Haha. One thing I'd love to see in the retail is drivable civilian vehicles. On maps like Caspian it's a bit boring having to run kilometers when all the noobmates drive solo.
I'm sure I wasn't alone in running to the big trucks and cars and being a bit dissapointed at the lack of interaction.

I spent my last couple of days on Caspian outside of vehicles.. at the start of a round, don't spawn but wait nicely until a point is captured. Spawn there and you can reach all other points by foot since they're in shooting distance.
Yep. I had weird load times on Caspian. Running the game off a SSD and a fast machine but often I'd be quite late to the party.
Mine's a Vertex 2 120GB (original
) but yeah, as soon as I see the deploy screen the vehicles are gone, if I'm lucky there's a jeep left. that's how I figured I just play Caspian on foot and it is more enjoyable for me than with vehicles...
I'm pining for this damn game. All my other games just aren't satisfying that itch. Fuckety fuck. Now every time I think about the release the thought is "What if they don't deliver my game for a week?" I'm almost tempted to buy it for top dollar on Origin and cancel the pre-order that was supercheap.
I played some BC2 last night (and tonight again) and it feels so cartoony. .easy to spot peeps.. no Mirror's Edge jumping... but amazing running speed..
Well, to somewhat satisfy my dark urges I'm scouring the web for BF3 info. Here's another brief DICE interview.
Points of interest:
Points of interest:
- At peak the beta had 6 million players - DICE are very confident about their framework supporting huge amounts of players.
- Tightening up hit detection for retail. I hope they can fix the annoyance of being shot a moment after getting into cover, but I'll still love the game if they can't.
Ah, that's my good friend from TOG. Played with him since BF2. If you're joining me on a server he'll often be about (with a bunch of other TOGgers). Top bloke and a fine virtual heli pilot. I was his gunner in BF2 competition matches.
BF2: Special Forces had this already. It was kind of funny to play against the Insurgents, which were basically just a rag-tag group of terrorists. Good times.
I did this all the time with a buddy of mine on BFBC2. Except we'd use UAV's and load them up with 6+ packs of C4. Fly them into enemy bases and blow up objectives, people, vehicles etc.
It had the distinct advantage of being immune to friendly explosives, so the plan was reusable. In addition it put neither myself or him at any serious risk.
Minimum investment, maximum returns. We'd win entire matches (just the two of us) doing this.
I posted a link to this Joystiq article in the console thread as the reviewer was playing the (almost) final build on one of them, rather than PC. I'm hoping that the significant lowering of bullet damage only applies on those platforms. Worth a read. I guess Hardcore mode might be worthwhile this time around if they don't nerf the HUD and spotting too much.
