BF: BC demo impressions

Well - the demo launched on the marketplace this morning - although I was one of those who got it early when I preordered. My opinion is it's ok - but not a blockbuster hit. The single player demo was good - the mulit player kinda sucks in the sense that it's too easy to get spawned killed ragardless where you choose to spawn, plus (and maybe it gets better as you rank up), I was chasing 2 enemies and emptied a clip into each before they died - it was like playing a modern military version of Halo. What are your thoughts ? Oh yeah - it really sucks that you can't go prone in the game either !!!!
BF: BC demo impressions
i played the beta, and i felt that it took to long to kill people as wellBF: BC demo impressions

thats one thing that i feard about BF:BC, in the other games it took WAY 2 long to kill someone and it was VERY annoying,
I was in the demo early and had alot of fun with it, but dont think im going to get it. Nobody talked at all and no teamwork was involved in any match i've been in. Whats the point of getting it if no one is going to play it the way it should be played. Everyones going to play it like its Halo or COD4.(nothing wrong with those games)Im going to cancel my pre order and throw the money into my MGS4 pre order.
I'm not too impressed by it. The explosions are way too quiet. And the graphics are kind of glitchy. I dunno...it's got nothing on COD4. Maybe worth renting. Too bad, I was thinking maybe this would turn out to be a game worth buying but it's not at all.

Will it be included in the retail version or did they take it out because of bunnyhopping?

Even though everyone is comparing it to call of duty 4 which I thought was too easy in multiplayer. And all those complaining about too hard to kill someone obviously cant see the option to play the hardcore mode where it is easier to kill people.

I have been playing the demo for over a week now and I am very impressed. For me personally, I have played CoD 4 so much that Im at the point of going back to Halo 3 just for something new to play. After a weeks worth of play with the BfBc demo, here are my Pros and Cons...Pros...Vehicle are a blast to drive and are very much apart of the strategy used in the gameLarge maps are a welcome change from the smaller type maps found in CoD 4Graphics are very good Imo!! Guns, vehicles and terrain look as good as CoD 4Blowing evrything up is a nice touch. How many time in CoD 4 have you wished you could take out a wall and smoke the sniper who has whacked you 4 times in a row???Sound...I actually think this game sounds more realistic than CoD 4. Cons...Where are the gun attachments? No ACOG or Red Dot for my M16??No prone stance?? HUH??4 rockets cant take a tank down???Grenande launcher is useless on troops. I cant tell you how many times are shot a grenade at some dudes feet and it didnt do a thing to him!!!What gives with the Haloesque having to empty a clip and a half to kill someone GENERALLY!!! I mean I get it in Halo with the whole energy shild thing, but this is supposed to be real world?Too easy to spawn killRemaining questions for me???1. What game types are there? There better be regualr Team DM, CTF or something. I like the Attack and Defend game the demo has, but there has to be more!2. What happens at level cap? Can you start over like in CoD 4 or are you just Lvl 25 and done?For me right now, I'd say overall I personally will have alot of fun with BfBc if for nothing else because it is something fresh and will give me a break from CoD 4. Now will it have the longevity of CoD 4? That remains to be seen!!
That's what i said about the Beta, they need to fix the damage system and its looks like they didn't. That's one reason i prefer BF2 and not BF2142, empty most of your ammo or get a headshot. I thought there would be shock paddles and ammo resupply but didn't see any. I hope they use the customization of weapons like BF2142 or CoD4.
i don't know why i don't really like it.. i mean the graphics are pretty good, and it should be fun..but it just doesn't 'feel' right to me.. i had the same experience in the beta.. i just can't put my finger on why though.
I think the demo is pretty good, but I like the BF2 style gameplay. What I'm guessing will happen is everyone will tout this as COD4 and when people play it and it's not like COD4 at all, people will say it sucks.
I heard going prone was going to be DLC :)
I pre-ordered so I've been playing it for awhile now and I love it. The sound is amazing, the shooting, while being very different from COD4, is very fun in my opinion. The game isn't really as easy as COD4, which is pretty cool, and sometimes I wish I could go prone, but because it is already near impossible to spot snipers, it's fine that prone was taken out. Also, I'm kind of glad grenade launchers don't do much to enemies or else you'd have 8 automatic kills right from the start. I think it does some damage, so shoot the grenade and switch to your gun to finish him off. I love it. Definitely buying.Edit: One more thing, this game feels so much more intense due to the big battle feel and the whole destructable environments. It's so badass walking along a dirt path with craters in it from mortar blasts and blown up smoking tanks with half destroyed buildings around you. So cool.
Beta = terrible... 2/10Demo = extremely bad.... 2.5/10As ive said a few times.. ill no tbe getting this one
[QUOTE=''A4Audiguy'']I heard going prone was going to be DLC :)[/QUOTE]lolzAnyway for some reason I found it really hard to see where the enemy was in SP, the radar didnt seem to be accurate or they blended into the background or something?
im downloading it right now
[QUOTE=''RealKilla_789'']im downloading it right now[/QUOTE]same here
Their better be more than one game mode. Other rhan Attack and Defend. If their is only one game mode i will not be buying it on Day 1. Conquest Better be in the final game.
