Overall, I like the game. I hope the full release will have slightly better graphics, but generally I think thiswill be very successful.

One suggestion though...

PLEASE ADD A KICK-VOTE OPTION SO THE PLAYERS CAN KICK CHEATERS/HACKERS THAT PUNK BUSTER HASENT CAUGHT UP TO YET.

Just a suggestion.
Do what Quake Live did for a server browser.Idea simple.
where to start...

Took forever to get into a match. Beta I understand, I could find the solutions easily on the forums thankfully.

Got headshot like 5 times by a guy with a machine gun who I could barely target with my scope. machine gun should not have the same kind of accuracy from across the map.

Wasn't even remotely seriously about this game once I learnt you could sit in the spawn camp insta killing players over and over. At least randomize where we spawn. Simply left after I was killed instantly 4 times in a row or so.

Not much testing or enjoyment here for this 1st time player. Barely got out of spawn camp in my 1st 5 minutes of play.
Please add server browser, KICK VOTE, small maps for FAST game. Could you make commander like in bf2 with all commands like UAV , artillery , supply drop...?Can we expect it?
I like all Battlefield games , and this too!

I haven't had such a bad game experience, but it wasn't great. I know it is in Beta testing, so people are (supposed to, anyway) finding bugs to help the future game, and I have created a list of problems with the game.

Bugs:
1. Loading Screen/Main Menu hardly work.
a. mouse does not appear at main menu.
b. loading screen flashes black and white until game enters.
2. Most obstacles cant be jumped over.
3. Sniper Rifle does not shoot where aimed.
4. Vehicles often do not respawn on one team (usually the RU).
5. Medic/Ammo Packs somehow destroy vehicles.

Other Problems:
1. PunkBuster hardly works - I've seen people saying "www.roothacks.com" and "Free Hack at 'www.etchackwebsite.com'" and aimbotting/wallhacking/OPK-ing/etc. without getting kicked, also I saw one player doing all of these on my first game here (not a very good first impression).
2. Tanks are OP - people can drive around during the duration of the game and get 17-0 because nobody can kill the tank.
3. Game lags excessively.
4. Players can't see far enough even with High Quality.
5. Knife most often does not work.
6. Not always possible to pass levels.
7. Entering game shows a screenshot of the level, but no people, no chat, etc. for a few minutes.
8. Whats with the Forum Search wait time???
9. Not enough spawn zones - makes it easy to be spawnkilled

Suggestions (*Update*)
1. Use/Create a program to replace PunkBuster (I know it's not in the Beta).
2. Make it possible to kick players from servers... but make it need one or two players from the same team as the possibly to-be-kicked player to prevent the other team from kicking them because he/she killed them...
3. Make more buildings able to be climbed and entered.
4. Make a rangefinder and adjustable sights for snipers.
5. Decrease range of SMG/Machine Gun.
6. Give all classes some kind of explosive weapon.
7. Take time to break down on hacking - many people quit playing your games because you do nothing about the hacking situation EA.
8. Create a Server Browser (i3d's Battlefield Heroes Auto Admin server browser is a great example)
9. Replace the Theme Song - I honestly like it, but most other customers hate it... it has been described as "cheap thrash metal" many times.
10. Add possible customizations (Silencer, Grenade Launcher, etc.).
11. Commander Mode from BF2.
12. Make it more squad-based.
a. Create a hierarchy such as BF2 (grunt, squad leader, commander...).
b. include commands and options for players higher up in the chain of command (Supply Drop, UAV, Squad Leader Commands, etc.).
c. Change around the chain-of-command every round or let people choose who the leader(s) should be.
13. Create more zones (can't remember the real name) doing more or less damage when hit (getting shot in the chest should do a different amount of damage than getting shot in the foot).
14. Possibly make a login from the program. I (and probably others) hate how in this and BFH I/others have to go to the website to load the game.
well, my first impression was: is there only this one map? and thus far there has only been said one map...
my second impression was, that assault drop way too many ammo crates way to fast...
great game, because i've not forgotten that it's a beta version.... and hope defects will be fixed in the "final" version

verry happy to play again Karkand Wink
hope i will play soon during the waiting of BF3

but team play will be difficult... because of hazardous spawn
Quote:Got headshot like 5 times by a guy with a machine gun who I could barely target with my scope. machine gun should not have the same kind of accuracy from across the map.

That was a hacker.
This game is just fun. But i want weapons changes, the medic shouldn't have a MG3,PKM,M249 it should have the weapons of the Engineer PP2000,UMP45,P90 and the engineer should take the medic weapons or other weapons
First time i played as a engineer i just got angry because of the RPG i shot 2 times on the jeep and it was still driving then it killed me XD
I hope the developers are aware of the connection issues and working to fix it. Now, about the gameplay, i hope that the maps will be smaller. The large maps make everything seem slower.
It's a nice game, but lacks cheat protection, more maps and better view distance...

I agree with this conclusion!!!!
Bugs at 2,3,6
Other problems at 1,3,4! I am not agree with conclusion 2 because you have ati-tank rockets lanunchers all over map that you can use

This is true, but they seem to be far underpowered. First off, the damage needs to be higher... I have never killed a single vehicle using one of these, or any vehicle for that matter. Also, most times I run to an AT Launcher, the thing and I are always destroyed before I ever fire a single rocket. Also am moving 1, 3, and 4 to "Other Problems". Thank you. Wish/Hope EA would look at this.

Yes. I am completely agree with you, ATI-TANK rocket launchers are underpowered , snipers too.I think that spawn time for vehicles must be shorter after increasing damage of AT launcher.Also I suggest that EA team could make small maps for quick game! What do you think about it?

I also hope that the EA team will see our feedback! Pozz bro

Ive been playing battlefield2 for 5 years or more with a break here and there, so far I love the way this is starting out. I love the fact that all the guns can make a kill if used right, unlike in bf2 where some are about useless. I really hope this game doesnt turn into bf2 where you cant kill a helo or jet so everyone fights to get them then end up with 90 kills all the time. So far this is excellent so keep up the format guys I love it.
okay time for another bughunt all over the game it kinda gets boring keep reporting over and over again about cheats and hacks on all other games i have tried to help all these years -_-...
this will refresh my mind for another few years -_-...
My first impressions:
I thought the game was suposed to be like a free BF2 with less stuff...
-Tank rules the game ( enginer + tank = win) they easly capture points and are always on the look for enemies, if you run into a rocket luncher thing theres no much you can do, there isnt many countermeasures to deal with the tank, in BF2 you could simply switch class and rig the tank with C4 or blast some anti tank rockets..
- Players besides Recon tend to camp on the roof near capture points so they pretty much get me near my spawn.
- theres some issues with the menu and some ingame lag
- the game is still in CB the content atm is minimum im looking forward for updates.
