Its actually pretty damn nice.

Got the epic BF battles, but in a slower paced (more tactical) mood.
I never sniped in the BF series.  Never played it for tactics. . . hated having bunny hopping gunfights that lasted ten minutes because the rifles don't seem to do shit.

Assault, Defend, Sniper, Engineer. . .didn't really seem to matter.

It does here for some reason.  Im able to snipe (actually calculate the bullet drop) and effectively kill stationary players, or moving players.  Pistols at close range when you ARE a sniper, seem to be effective (head shots).

The ballistics in this game, versus any other BF game are totally different.
Ya, some guns are better then others. . . you might get outranked. . . BUT, it seems like aiming your shitty rifle at the head and doing some damage actually works regardless of rank.

I actually find myself jumping back to the default weapons that I had unlocked on install just because im more used to them so they seem to work more, but jumping to my new unlocked weapon mid game because I need to shoot without reloading my weapon is kinda strategic.

Its fun (the beta) but is buggy as shit.  Took at4 and myself a good 2 hours before we could see each other as a buddy.  The server browser is fucked. . .but theres a little ticker at the bottom of the screen that says "We know we fucked up, we are working on it and know you are all pissed - Don't use server browser, we fucked that up too, just click Play Now - and the little - "We are working on this until our eyes bleed, so please buy it when it comes out". . . . . .

The beta is shit, but thats because its almost impossible to find the same server and play together. . .BUT if you get that server list (or steam when its launched) involved it will actually be fun as shit, yet will require work to beat the bad guys.  The game mode we have in Beta is pretty straight forward.  Defend, or Assault.  Once you get one area, you move back and defends pulls back and defends there.   Very fun, and you can actually notice the extra effort by your team mates when you can spawn a bit further forward.

Worth checking out. . . . take a look.
I spent $6.00 bucks tonight on a fileplanet account because the open beta key never got emailed. . . and it took me 20 minutes to download at 2.3 MB/s because i spent 6 bucks.

It has potential.

Great fuckin movie.

I can honestly say the trailer, and the first 15 minutes of the movie made me think "wtf this is lame" but come to find out it was actually a very well put together film with some intriguing scenes.  Its late and I don't have alot of time to elaborate as of now, but I must say the story is very well put together and the movie was fucking awesome.
