The EA PWNED chick is easy on the eyes, and less ditsy than most video game channel chicks I've seen at least. Was glad most of the interviews were with her heh.
Oh the game looks pretty good as well.
Meh, I'm sick of getting bombed to shit, missiled to shit, and grenaded to shit in that game. That's practically all that ever happens. This far from release, people have figured out all the overpowered weapons and use them exclusively. Personally, I think it would really help BF2's continued longevity if they released one last patch buffing AA measures and flares, and nerfing bombs, frag grenades, and TVG missiles. Bomb damage should be about half what it is, resupply amounts per second should be less for bombs and frag grenades, and frags should be given at one per life. And flares in jet-versus-jet combat should actually fucking work. I swear there is no fucking way to evade those fucking things if your piloting is anything less than godly.

Well, since most people in the platoon thread haven't joined the Steam group and I don't have their SteamIDs, I can't invite them to it. So, for now, awareness of the game nights is pretty low unless people look in the Platoon thread, which I'm guessing most don't. It would seem that it's easier to jump into a game of BC2 with a limited number of people, rather than BF2 or BF2142. If there were enough people who would play BF2142, I would forsake BF2 and BC2 for that instead. I have never had as much enjoyment with any other BF game than BF2142. Sci-fi stuff just clicked with me better after years of playing Halo PC/CE.
However, if we could get at least 5 or 6 people to create our own squad in BF2 I'd say we should try it. With a squad leader, we would at least have some direction with getting something done. Even better, if one of our guys could snag the Commander position and the rest of us run in a squad, we could help shape battles a lot better because other people would see how efficient our squad is at executing orders. Or at least I'd hope that's what they'd do instead of just killing people.
@ExAm: Well, I don't typically play Wake Island or any of the maps where jet aircraft can actually have a huge impact. Helicopters are perfectly balanced. The only maps that *really* suck to play on are Strike at Karkand and that one large, open desert tank map.
@Amit: BF2 is also easier on computers than BC2, so you could get more players through that fact alone. This computer doesn't handle BC2 very nicely, so I have resorted to playing BF2. It would be nice to have some familiar people to roll with in a squad.
We'll be seeing mutliplayer at E3, finally
also TDM confirmed (will not be shown at E3), along with stat-tracking utilitites supposedly analogous to the CoD Elite stuff, except free
Keep an eye on EA.com Monday for the press conference
Was gonna post this hours ago, but got caught up with work:
LOLz, once again DICE gives Activision the finger. Create platoons. I REALLY like the sound of that. It'll help greatly with Modacity Platoon business. However, the Battlelog better not be anything like the Autolog from Hot Pursuit last year.Originally Posted by Karl Magnus Troedsson - General Manager, DICE
Hackers are rare. The few that I have seen banned from servers, well I didn't even realize they were hacking. Hacking in a large scale game like BF is not too much of an issue since the action is spread out. Therefore, people experience less of the effects. In a small game area, such as CoD and Crysis 2, it's more noticeable because everyone is being jammed at each other in a tight space.
