So how is everyone liking it? Me, Chilly, Gareth and my brother Irishcarbomb are having a blast with the game so far. I feel some of the weapons damage needs to upped, along with some needs to be dropped. But other then that its a fun game.

I like the game so far except the missing lean and prone. I especially like the immersive sound.

@ Gerrak: You would have to Force On Vertical sync in your NVCP or CCP. In-game Vsync option does not work for me.

It's pretty good sofar... I'll be happy when the release comes out next month, I'm sure they'll the prone fixed, at least i hope they do.

Word is, there will be no ability to go prone.

The lead designer isn't a fan of it and thinks it will slow down the gameplay.

Some people aren't buying the game anymore and some think it's just another plain console port now. I think it's still a good game nonetheless. But it really needs some optimization because the game is really hard to run maxed out without a um $400 graphics card. I bet a lot of people will make the jump to next-gen cards from Nvidia once they're out.

Oh and there's already one of those Hitler rants lol

I'm fine with no prone. It keeps players moving, not camping.

I'm lovin' this game!!! That's probably why you guys don't see me too much on the COD server.

No Prone! wtf we have had prone since the beginning of FPS war games, it's always been in the game..... just because he's not a fan of it it's out. Prone has it's necessity, if he's trying to kill the ability of players using prone as an advantange , you know that player that bounces up and down killing you, well that's understandable... I can see that. But if you are a sniper, or just being tacticle no prone BLOWS BIG TIME.. I'm in disagreement with the no prone.... I guess it's crouch and pray that you don't get hit. I mean reallly ... I can't see what the advantage of taking prone out of the game is.... crap players will always find away to exploit something. What will the next one be? Sprint... lets remove it....LOL, or perhaps the Sniper it's actually an unfair advantage... campers with a close shot.

Well prone wasn't in the first Bad Company so...

I think a good point is: prone snipers would be godly since it's already easy enough to be caught off guard on the huge battlefield. But then, prone is crucial for taking cover. Sometimes you're still vulnerable even when you try your best to take cover behind whatever.

Sprint has been limited. No strafe-sprinting like CoD. But in BC2 you can run non-stop unlike getting out of breath in CoD. By the looks of it, the BF BC2 community manager needs to get fired. I would like lean, prone, and strafe-sprinting back. DICE is making themselves and this game look bad. But maybe it's not worth arguing back because it never worked with MW2...

At least they didn't remove dedicated servers =P
Anyhow, I still played fine without the features we're used to having. Got 6kill streak last night.
