In on epic thread

[NORCALpump]

Obvious first question

What are your impressions? (in terms of shooting, movement, pace of gameplay, etc)

[InsaneGuy]

I'd hide the name of the guy in the server to avoid tracing.
How'd you get the key? I'm jealous.

[CurltonBench]

strong letdown.....nothing like the trailers....now we wait for mw3

[Jorge0886]

OP meant he bought Counter-Strike 1.6

[Drunkbeard]

honestly, how awesome is this game?

[Briisk]

Game looks amazing.

I need a new desktop unless anyone knows if a lenovo thinkpad w520 w/ nvidia quadcore m1000 graphics card is going to be able to run this game?

[metalhead420]

Is it similar to Battlefield 2 in terms of gameplay or more like BC2?

[BlueBpy]

Obvious first question

What are your impressions?

i'll take more pics tonight


Game is buggy right now, vehicles dont work right. you need a engineer to get them to start. it's messed up

- Game looks amazing
- Configuration of display settings is messed up. It does it auto but makes it low settings because its not optimized yet. you can mess around with the settings (i did) still playing around

- Health regen is REALLY slow, Too slow... pretty sure they will fix
- Maps are HUGE
- subway is crazy in terms of so much going on when in big firefights

[SQTFTW]

no idea what ppl are talki about ITT

[PowerBom]

game looks alright, thought it'd be ridiculously good. mind=intact
guess those videos from DICE were bullshiet.

[MssV187]

Cant wait for this game and to the guy concluding this game is **** because of these pictures you are beyond dumb and ignorant.

[SebastianG]

That looks like a terrible game brah. COD>





























JK <3 Battlefield games. I've been a fan since the beginning BF1942. I play Bad Company 2 almost daily....

actually it looks better then the trailers, on the auto settings it looks unreal

im messing around with custom settings because the auto settings don't max out

Still messing around with em

trust me, it looks the same if not better then trailers on 1900x1080 +

Remember its ALPHA and im using custom settings

I took one screeny of high res on auto settings. lemme get it sec

[d_rob1031]

Why am I unimpressed with the graphics? I'm hoping it will improve 10x in the final release?

edit: ^^ thanks OP, what I was assuming.

[Tgeo]

LAME.

IW updates their engine for each new title instead of scrapping it and making a new game engine. COD 4 was on the IW 2.0 where MW3 will be on the IW 5.0 they are still different engines. Nice try though.

[soundb0y]

It is definitely more like BF BC2 rather than BF2. Rush mode is the only one playable in alpha.

The 3d spotting from BC2 is used as well, which is fuc\ing awful. You can just spot the big red triangle the other side of the map and just spam it with fire until you either get a kill or suppression points. Kinda ruins it for me and hope its removed before release.
