This is great! And along the way when all the bugs are fixed, it will be even greater!
I hope the following is readable. My English may not be the best grammatical.
But one thing that 'bugs' me is when I log on to a game and find myself in a team where almost every goddamn player uses the sniper class only to get killing points. No one gives a damn about getting/defending the flags, and the opposing team takes flag after flag and own us.
Ladies and gentlemen, BF is and has always been a game that works best with teamwork. Just as in hockey and football. And without a forward, defender, etc, the team WILL fail to win.
Perhaps BFP4F should have restrictions on the number of sniper classes in each team?
Of course, with the exception of future servers that only allow sniper classes and where you can play sniper against sniper.
: )
Nice game. Good balanced maps and classes.. no.. medic is unkilleble imbalanced rambo on 20 lvl, powerfull weapon and unlimited health. When he camping on 2 medikits, he stay alive before knife hit, I think need fix posebillitity medics to heal self. I do 52/0 when play for that killing machine. Thats wrong, need to do something with this.
P.S: sorry for my eng >_<"
Lovely idea! Hope they actually make it work properly before the open beta, else folks will give it one belt, then forget all about it. Rather sad really
I have high hopes for this project. While shake, but soon I think I can play and evaluate.
Just tested out one map, and I LOVED it. I'm still new to this so playing was a bit clumsy, but I enjoyed it. I'll be looking forward to this game.
Ok been playing again today finding it a bit laggy when you get shot and shows the peep who killed you no need to show the person who just killed you as you can't deside on the spawn point and why is it thats we are fight as the US and RU what ever happened to the MEC or the China guys since it is a revamp maps of BF2 and Could you put some of the ladders back in the Karkard map like on the building beside the square as it was a great place to climb up and snipe from or at the building be side the market flag as it was a good defence post over looking the flag there in the orginal BF2 karkand map......
I'd like to see a more web-based experience like Quake Live with a webinterface for perks, equipment and what not.
Game still crashes every now and then and the interface looks blurry as if not running on native resolution when it actually does.
Also, I miss corner leaning and multidirectional sprinting. (sprinting atm. only forward and not diagonal)
I also have problems with the killcam, when it appears all customizations are loaded at that moment which lags and that denies me the ability to select my spawn point.
On first sight: I LOVE it!!!
So far I have played some common online-shooters: Counter Strike, Battlefield2 (which I really loved!!) and BadCompany2.
I like Battlefield Play4Free because it is a quite good mix of what I loved about these other games. On CounterStrike (only played public...!) I missed the strategy, which I found at Battlefield2. BadCompany2 for me was too much a fast-paced shooter like CSS... At some point of running around shooting I stop liking it. I like tha large maps and the open fields and streets.
But this game not so sleepy like BF2 can be
It has good action!
Now if you had Squads or fireteams and if you could crouch throug the grass and lay down to snipe I`d call it strikingly good...... (ignoring the bugs of course...)
Just got the game yesterday and I like it - The gfx are a bit dated, I understand why though.
The lag is terrible (I'm on 50mb cable in the west coast) with a good PC.
The in game chat filter needs work as it filtered some innocent words - I can't remember what, but it is odd.
I know it's a BETA, but it's hard to play/test if the lag is as bad as it is :/
its definitely no BF2142... i want to test a characters strengths and weaknesses before deciding which to use... grunt?, medic?, engineer?, sniper? knowing i could only test two i picked sniper and medic, not knowing i could not delete a character to try the others... the constant lag makes sniper a hard choice as well as maps which are not suited to the role and while a hmg is nice, its not the weapon i want to use permanently... in the end there are plenty of other games out there which are not going to cost an arm and a leg to play... my experience with the game is at an end after two days of constant lag from players with high ping rates getting into the game... in 2142 this issue was dealt with before it could become a problem as players with high ping rates could not even enter an arena... its just a game and no gr8 loss to me, however EA its your bread and butter so you had best decide who you want to keep happy
played the BFs series for years or should i say DID, i just think this is MONEY FOR OLD ROPE, looks like the guys down at HQ could not think of anything new to do so they thought they would release this AGIAN but this time WORSE (OK ITS BETA) i really hope they sort some of the major probs out before they release the open version not like they did with all older BFs it was patch after patch with that one....
Looks like there are some Cheats in this game all ready, using what looked like AIM BOTS....
Will have to wait for the open beta to see if things get rolling on this one, my advise is DONT SPEND ANY CASH ON THIS FOR AT LEAST A FEW WEEKS AFTER THEY RELEASE.
Intresting game,
Although it took forever to download (I blame my ISP) the initial software to start up. Considering that im completely a console gamer I had a difficult time with the controls. Also I nowticed a few varibles about the mini map and visability that were to my dislike. ( I am keeping in mind this is a beta) This is a game I would consider playing if I didnt have BF:BC2 on my PS3 and if the anticipated BF3 wasnt coming out. My final word? I still choose BF over COD including and if it were down to this beta and COD, I would choose the beta due to the fact of that it continues to hold and carry all the great aspects of what Battlefield is all about.
Keep up the good work !
Cool classes
Boring layout
Boring maps
Stupid, you need points to fly
OP weapons
UP regulars
Snipers
Lag
OP tanks
Planes spawncamp
You have to pay for EVERYTHING. I mean, wtf? money to change main character?
I will not be playing this game in the future.
My honest opinion is that this game has a LOT of potential. I think on omen you can have to much fun or do much in a jet with a map that small so it need to be a lot bigger. Also you need to have some kind of option to delete your soldier because i don't want the one i made and its a waste of a slot. Another thing is there needs to be something to make it so you don't have to check the box to go to base so I don't need to kill myself so i can click it real fast before it lags like crazy...With some improvements this game can be the best browser game out there.
I found the game alot more realistic than games like crossfire where one gun is a one hit kill on there but here you actually have to work for your kill in this game. I have been playing this for like 3 hours and cant get anywhere near the amount of kills in this game that I can get in other games and I like that.

Wrote: [ -> ]Awesome game wish i could spend more time on it cant wait to buy some stuff and deffinatley cant wait for the JETS this game looks like it has great potential. the only other things i would add would be Squads and ingame character selection... Great work EA keep it up!

This.
I was not even remotely impressed.
First impression "Why is this worse than BF2? Why am I even beta testing a game that came out years ago? How did you manage to step backwards so far you've created new bugs? Where is the innovation? Why would I play this if I already own BF2?"
Will not return unless you make absolutely massive changes to everything. This game is a hollow shell compared to BF2, and I will not accept it being free as an excuse.
The game seems great, but it's still heavily bugged. When the bugs are fixed, I'm sure it's gonna become a great game.
My first impression is that this game has some of the same problems many similar games have from a snipers pov. The difference in range and accuracy of sniper rifles and ARs/SMGs just isn't big enough.
These are first impressions mind you, but it really does feel like the ar shoots just as far and accurate as the sniper rifle.. and full auto beats scope :<
Other than that the game seems solid, gameplay is cool, especially melee and pistols feels great.
Store is a bit empty, but I'm not yet lvl10 (that used to matter in BFH), and it's just cb.
