    If you don't like something report it, that's why you were given a key, to help them improve the game before release.

    I know its a beta but c'mon ea/dice why did you waste your time on the piece of cr@p instead of giving us something useful like maybe the myth that is the "1.50" patch or as they like to call it "upgrade".

    Never go near Beta games. They can put you off a game. My brother played the 2142 beta and said it was crap but then he liked the final game when it came out. Just wait for the final release i say.

    I think people have undue expectations about Heroes. It's more of an experiment in microtransactions, and to lure people into the BF series. It's not the equivalent of BF3, it's more akin to that red van with free candy scrawled on the side.

    Meh, Heroes is fun and games. It's not directed at the hardcore Battlefield gamers, rather at the casual gamers. I think it's fun, when I do play it.

    got mine yesterday, its decent game not as indepth as TF2 but a bit of fun nonetheless. real cash only buys you clothing items and taunts, you earn XP for better guns.


    A level lasts around 7 or 8 minutes, highest score i got was 1600xp and 6 kills. Killing someone requires a full mag with SMG each hit takes about 8hp off them and soldiers start with 110.

    tanks are fun but planes are a bit of a nightmare to fly.

  • Moderators, Computer Games Moderators Posts: 14,707 Mod ✭✭✭✭Dcully


    Got my key last week,wasnt mad about the game but im loving it now.
    Im torn between my soldier with his flaming bullets and healing and my commando with his sniping and stealth backstabbing :)
    Soldier is lvl 10 and commando lvl 8.
    Very fun game, new map coming soon too,once they sort out the SMGs and MGs it will be a great laugh.

    I just linked the key to my EA.com account bt I can't get past the "Security Layer" login using the account and password I created.

    Any ideas of what I'm doing wrong?

    That's a separate login that you need to create yourself. You should have instructions in the welcome mail.

    Got that thanks. Figured out that it's not just me but everyone who created an account in the past 24 hours. The new login doesn't work even after a reset.

    Level 6 Soldier.

    ok-ish game but don't think I'd pay for it really.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,049 ✭✭✭superfly


    lvl 12 gunner, and i am loving it
    can't see people paying to buy clothes, widgets and emotes
    i hate victory village!
    it needs more maps but then i'd say they will release them when the game goes live
