actually, there's no health bar or any form of health indicator for u. if u're hit, u get a red splash on ur screen. but u can see other people's health. it's fairly easy to kill someone in this game as compared to BFBC1. 1 clip of 30 bullets can take down 4-5 guys if u're efficient.

body armour simply makes it harder for people to kill u. again, there's no indicator on how much damage is inflicted or prevented.

JUst playing a few round on ps3... seem the graphic is not quite good... or maybe coz it is ps3... lol

it's ps3

Sounds good to me. Never liked numerical HP anyway. Too rigid. And the rounds per kill sounds sweet enough too. Body armour... need to see it in action before I can decide. FC2 had some real kick-ass body armour, with targets still standing until you pop their heads. Either that or its just the drugs in the systems

The M24 in one of the gameplay vids sounds pretty damn scary. The scope's pretty too, > COD any day.

okay i just ran with my clan, and we were up against a team of snipers. damn these people are good. when DICE told us they're gonna make sniping harder, it doesnt seem to stop these guys from mastering the skills within a day...

Damn u say not good.. its beta version .. of course not good. Wait till they release full version.
i prefer to play it on PC of course .. sniping using joypad is hard.

NO IT IS NOT

to be fair, there are a number of people who've likened BFBC2 to COD4. yeah, there are similarities, but BFBC2 now offers so much more.

sniping no one hit KO? hmm...if dead center on body? limbs i understand...

How big is the map?
Multiplayer can support how many players?

nope. unfortunately no 1hk. so must go headshot ALWAYS. but then again, we've not unlocked the M95 .50 caliber sniper rifle. so just wait and see.

map is quite huge. it'll take a while to run across the map, so vehicular transportation is highly recommended.

24 players max, same as BFBC1. no idea if they're gonna increase this number, but there are talks that they might do it for PC, but not the consoles.

you'd need a headshot to get a 1 hit kill, but i do get lucky and get two kills with 1 shot using just an M24 sniper.

NO!!!! its not cod4.....nvr battlefield is not cod4. it is an insult to battlefield. no offense cheese.

Idk if its the player's horrible aiming or the gun's horrible damage, but it sure took a hell lot of rounds to take down tangos.

I also agree that this is no COD. I mean, just watch the vid and gawk at the second last scene. Russian defenders, tanks rolling in, explosions (its still mindblowing, so Hollywood-like).

EDIT: Oh btw, the jets in the vid i posted, are they piloted by players or are they air support, a la COD?

You dont have to scream on me.

Alright,fine.

i. actually it takes a whole lot less bullets than BFBC1 to kill someone. but all guns got recoil, hence if u spray u will hardly kill anyone. burst is the best way to make sure most of ur bullets hit the mark.

ii. the jets at the beginning are just part of the sequence in the beginning of combat. but if u see just as the jets fly, there's a small unmanned helicopter flying from right to left. that is something u can control, and the controller is at the attacker's base. what u can do is spot enemy units, or order a missile to drop on ur target.

DICE have reshuffled the classes compared to BFBC1. in multiplayer, u have 4 classes, each with its own ability and role to play. they are:

i. Assault - all round soldier. equipped with assault rifle with grenade launchers. balanced in almost every way. can drop ammo supply that others can use as well.

ii. Engineer - focused on vehicular warfare, either with it or against it. equipped with SMG and RPG. can use the powertool to repair vehicles or destroy walls.

iii. Medic - infantry support. equipped with light MG. very good at suppressing the enemy, but have almost no ability against vehicles. can revive fallen teammates (which will refund tickets) and drop health packs to heal nearby soldier.

iv. Recon - medium to long range anti-infranty. equipped with sniper rifle. almost useless against vehicles. can use motion sensors and call in mortar strikes.

i think the recoil thingy is not alien to us PC fps gamers. all the gun fights in the video looks very interesting.

cant wait for dec beta!

Looks good, old school teams like MBT etc going to compete? Definitely playing this game! Exile-5 going to dominate Australian BF yet again

if theres tourney for it....eh fear i thought yer in XEF? double clan?
