    Crawling over rocks etc, allows you to see through a lot of them. At least twice I have been under the map. The terrain doesnt seem fixed at all

    I dont know what the snobbery is all about. Seems a little different, but thats it.

    (compensation from having to sit 3 foot away from a small monitor versus feet up playing on 42' TV)

    It plays so much like MOH to be totally honest, MOH and BF had a baby with a shiney new engiine.
    Weapons feel just like MOH, whch is good imo, while MOH lacked substance the gunplay and weapons felt great to me.

    Only had one brief round, felt a lot more like BF than Op Metro does.

    Excellent stuff! Had a go of the jets at all? How's the controls on them compared to BF2?

    Didn't touch them, only some tank play. Tanks feel more sluggish to move now though.

    I guess that's to balance the rehealing tanks at low health. Would be hard to find cover if you can't move it fast enough :) I thought the tanks in BC2 were a tad too slow anyway

    Very unimpressed with it so far on the PS3 , falling through the map a hell of a lot :mad:, I know it's a beta and all but with the game release only a few weeks away I hope it's an old build.

    It was the password, and wasn't meant to be public. Some servers are changed, some aren't.

    Just amazing. Simply amazing. While Metro left a good impression, Caspian Border just blows it away. View from the top of the spike is mindblowing :P Spent about 5 minutes up there sniping.

    Don't give Headshot any jets though, its all I'm saying :P
