Yep, I agree. In my brief amount of playing time I could smell the distinct aroma of BF2...and that's not a good thing.

Overall I've heard most people are fairly disappointed with the beta. I've heard graphics are not very good either (especially with some far-away textures that were very low-detailed). What do you guys who have played the beta think about the graphics/performance?

graphics are ok, nothing to "write home about", except when you are zoomed in with a scope, especially with the strogg scope. everything is highly pixelated. maybe its supposed to be that way, i don't know, but it sucks.

the guns aren't much better than BF2's. They seem a bit more accurate than BF2's guns but not by much. the sniper rifles are horrible. after each shot the recoil makes your crosshair fly up 10 feet in the air. still takes like 3 shots to kill someone with a sniper rifle unless you hit them in the head, then its one shot.

how do the weapons and explosions *SOUND*? so many FPS's i've played lately have very weak sounding weapons, so when i blow someone apart, it's not that satisfying

example: just about anything in bf2 sounds like a peashooter compared to say.. the SMG in HL2 or FEAR's AR

hmm...didn't really pay much attention to sound but nothing stood out. seemed to be pretty generic sounding weapons. i'll give it another go tonight and see if you don't get any other responses.

EDIT: Scratch that. Cleared my temp internet files and cookies and re-logged and it works now.

Get a key yet?

Yup I got it right away.

I played a little bit last night but I was sorta drunk so I don't remember much... I remember I sucked pretty bad and that the graphics were pretty good. Haven't tried any vehicles or deployables yet but I plan on firing it up again today.

Ughhh, this is the biggest gripe so far .. too many guns have the same sound ... *PEWW PEWWW PEWWW* ... it sounds like a Nerf Blaster on steroids.
