Battlefield Tri-hard

Well here's an idea. Blow out the sides of the MCOM building with rocket launchers, then put a mortar strike down on the same building to blow out the roof, and then launch a UAV missile directly at the MCOM. Finish off with with another missile and a tank shell.

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.

Mcoms can be destroyed by explosives in BC2, it just takes a lot more of them now.

In BF3 however, Mcoms don't take damage at all. You MUST arm them to destroy them. My team was so dumb earlier that I had to arm FIVE of the Mcoms myself in one round. We were just fucking lucky that the other team was just as dumb.

Remember that one long ass round where we kept fucking you guys up in the subway ticket area before you made it outside. I got a crazy amount of points just running around that area killing you blasted Americans. MCOM B is really badly placed for attackers, though.

If I preorder from Gamestop(I'm getting tired of leaving my computer on to download massive 10 gig files overnight), will I still get in the beta?

Open beta means open beta. Everyone gets in. MoH pre-order people and game journalists get it first. It'll be just like BC2 beta, but hopefully key distribution will be a lot smoother. Same goes for the game itself.

I would assume alpha testers will also get invited at the same time as media people.

Alpha testing is random. We're just apart of the normal pack of fans. Our reward was getting to Alpha test.

Not according to some emails I've been exchanging with a lovely tier 3 support rep for EA. Not posting details though since she asked me not to and there are enough rumors flying around.
