Yeah. IT's a hell of a a lot easier to disarm an mcom and keep it disarmed by yourself than to arm one and keep it armed. You're already in enemy territory when you arm the damn thing so 3 or 4 guys will come down and fuck you up when you arm mcom A.

Beta is open to anyone, but MoH people get slightly earlier access. I'm guessing it'll be like the BC2 beta where pre-order people get it at the same time as video game journalists.

Out of all the games I've played, only two have pushed past the first set of MCOM's lol. That was the two games where I got into the LAV.

Most of the games I played were like that too, there was only one game where my team actually managed to push back to the final MCOM stations.

Super addicted to knifing people right now. I'm only on this site posting (rather than in-game) because it crashed after the last round. None of my RL friends got into the Alpha besides me which sucks a little because I can't play with people I know. Kinda a shame too because this is my day off from work and I'm spending it playing this instead of chilling with them.
Theyjelly tho
E: Also I have only seen the attackers win once. It's that first set of MComs that really fucks everyone up. I'd jump in the LAV but I suck with vehicles.
E2: Jesus christ it's already 4PM? Stop stealing my life BF3 D:

Only 1 here.
I posted in the General Discussion. Lets hope some idiots read it and learn to play the fracking game.

in my BC2 experiences most of the successful MCOM destructions are caused by anything that's NOT arming it directly. I estimate that less than 10% of the time does a charge successfully blow because few players actually team up to defend an armed charge. It's simply much easier to spam rockets, tank shells, mortars, and even "jihad vehicles" loaded with C4.
even better (for attackers) when MCOMs are in destroyable buildings as you don't even need direct hits on the MCOM to take it out.

I thought they patched BC2 so that the MCOM could only be destroyed by arming it. I know C4 can no longer destroy it and I don't think that rocket launchers work, either. I dunno about mortar strikes, though. Mortars don't seem precise enough.

I think the patch only reduced weapon damage to MCOMs by 50%. Still I've mostly played on Rush games where MCOMs are in buildings, so I might be wrong.
