Pros:

-You can counter knife attacks
-The tanks move around a lot smoother
-People don't take half a mag to kill
-Diving in water to avoid bullets is awesome
-Elevators are great
-Multi zoom features of sniper rifles is great
-The recoil on the Scar seems more realistic
-Fighting on the tower and buildings is fun
-The sound quality is much better
-Lots of good sniping points
-Hurdling over things is a lot smoother
-Perk system seems better
-Seeing what someone you're going to spawn on is seeing is a god send


Cons:

-The new knife animation isn't as gratifying
-The tank shells drop rate is redonkulous
-The American medic sounds like he's from the Jersey Shore
-Chinese medic saying Chi Chu Chow over and over gets annoying
-RPGs should not act as guided missiles
-That map should say "Inspired by MW3" on it
-Throwing med packs seems glitchy I destroyed a couch with one lol


It's definitely an improvement over BF3 but after a few hours that map really starts losing it's shine. Wish they gave us more than one map to play on. It gets frustrating having to hear my medic sound like some guy with crushed nuts from the Jersey Shore or hearing Chi Chu Chow over and over. The BF3 voice overs were better.

Over all it feels like a refined version of BF3.. which is very good.
 
I like how I can jump up out of the water to get out, but I don't feel like I can jump as high over objects on the ground. Feels like bf3 jumping was better. I do like the tank smoothness.
 
Tanks are awesome but you need to pinpoint shoot to kill at least one guy. Blast radius would be better if it's bigger.

RPG's are overpowered.

Server Lags are literally killing me lol ..

Med Kit doesn't give points like the support ammo does.

Helicopters fly so much better.

I hate that ONLY the Skyscraper is demolishable

Rest of buildings only fall apart like close quarter offices in BF3

Love the Boats , Hate the Jet skis

C4 doesn't get stuck on Jet ski anymore like it used to when Beta started.

Skyscraper rooftop fight can distract you too much and you forget to cap the other points lol ..

Needs to be in windowed mode in order to stream live .. but oh well that's ok :D
 
I seem to be having issues clicking on "deploy" and clicking on players to spawn on.

My response to this paragraph is as follows:

It's a beta.

Of course they aren't going to give you everything. Also if something is annoying or isn't working report it so that DICE can fix it.

Part of my strategy for making informed decisions is sharing and collecting information as a group and then deciding if something is worth complaining to Dice about.

Oh and Hexibadger also noticed your confrontational attitude indicating deeper unresolved issues.
 
Where can you report to DICE for feedback? Or is that at the end of the beta?
 
Whoever was in the beta Before the "Open Beta" must have peanut brains...or just children. PICK better suited beta testers! FFS!
 
Tanks are really bad at this point in time like i assume they are going to be fixed but right now it seems the shells are off and im not sure how to describe it but they seem odd when firing them also they have way too much drop

The assumption is lead wrong. The Beta was good and was well organized and feedback was worked on right away. One day it was discussed the next day it was resolved. When Beta first started right after Final Alpha you weren't even able to see the Tank from 3rd view. All you saw was a black box lol . They are still developing and the pre order stuff helped in financing it. EA on the other hand never like resolve any issues right of the back. DICE was on it but EA sucked ass.
 
Pros:
- Graphics are gorgeous
- Sounds are insane
- Support and Recon are finally viable classes
- Helicopters actually fly like something other than a school bus with some form of retardation
- Much more information on the loadout page about what each upgrade does
- UI is pretty
- It isn't COD

Cons: (some may be bugs I've experienced, yes I know it's beta and they hopefully won't be in release)
- First impression was bad, couldn't spawn and had game crash out 3 times in about 10 minutes. After that, though it was great
- RPG's are kind of ridonculously OP right now
- No ammo box? (I couldn't drop anything other than little single-mag pouches)
- Grenades seem very clunky, don't throw very far and they don't seem to roll/bounce

Other Notes:
- I am kind of getting used to the new sniper rifles, but they behave VERY differently than they did in BF3 so getting running headshots is a little tough. Also I hope they make it so that the bolt action sniper rifles become 1-hit kill with a chest shot within maximum damage range like they did in BF3. They shoot quite a bit slower than they did previously, and I don't think it would be OP at all
- I liked how many places are available for play on at least the map that's available. Typically city maps are often very linear, but the amount of sniping possibilities from rooftops is incredible. Props to DICE on that
- Game feels good. There were a couple times I had some bugs with aiming where my crosshairs would just kind of stop moving, but I'm sure that either just due to a dirty mouse lense or bug due to beta.

I'm really excited to see what the full version has to offer!!

you need to unlock the ammobox. the small thing only gives you bullets. the unlocked ammobox gives you explosives as well (and at least looks like an ammobox).
 
my only real problem is that it seems like everyone and I mean EVERYONE is just trying to get on top of buildings so they can laser targets then have rpgs destroy it practically instantly. But so far I'm still having fun playing and I'd say that's what is the most important thing, but I can't say I'm a big fan of the map it plays on because of the reason stated above.

Oh and one last thing I did have a small glitch where I joined a game and it would not let me shoot, knife or do much of anything that would cause damage. Anyone else have that happen to them?
