Will there be Character Customization?
Hinted at; "...certain look, a certain movement style, certain weapons systems... At the Tier 1 level, they get to choose what they use... guys that we've had in here all have different likes and dislikes.... One guy will dress this way and use this system; another guy will do this; one guy will hold it this way or have a holster this way... It's been really, really cool, so we're getting the best of both worlds in the game."

Will there be HUD
Close to none; " The game features almost no HUD at all so far. You get incoming fire indicators, and a simple ammo counter that fades after you stop firing. Otherwise, it's all just game: sound, impact effects, destructible scenery, some very pleasing knife kills, and just solid, down to earth action. "

Is there Recoil:

Yes: quote from lead Dice dev Sibben

We do have recoil and deviation. When using auto weapons there is a definitive advantage in using controlled fire. It might be that it's not that visible in captured video, but you definitely feel it when playing.


What is tier one?
quote from Sibben Dice Dev:
It's a level you must reach. When you have the beard people know you're bad-xxx!


will the term clip be replaced by the right name magazine?
quote from Dice Dev sibben:
The term clip was a placeholder and it should really be magazine. I actually did a search and replace of clip to magazine just now in the text database. Some had been left in there for some reason. Magazine it is!


can you change your loadout during game:
Quote from DICE dev Sibben:
You select your loadout (weapon and attachments) when you spawn. The game remembers your last configuration for each class so if you have a favourite setup you can just spawn. Or edit it if you find the situation calls for a different loadout. It depends a bit on the map and the game mode what you want to pick.


how many bullets does it take to kill someone and is gameplay as fuild as BFBC2:
Quote from DICE dev Sibben
Depends on weapon, attachements and ammunition type. The gameplay in MoH MP is fast-paced and skill-centric.


How is movement online:
Quote from DICE dev Sibben
Movement is quite fast, yes.


Does Online favor tactical gameplay:
Quote from DICE dev Sibben
The nature of the game favors teamplayers. In Combat Mission the whole team really needs to pull together to achieve the objectives. In Team Assault a group of soldiers who move in a group will be more effective.
In addition to this defensive support actions influence and help your team. Many people will probably use them because it gives them points, but still, they're there.


Will the name "hollow point" for ammunition get changed because of controversy?
Quote from DICE dev Sibben










I have addressed this issue. Open-tip is a much better term and avoids this controversy. Thanks for reminding me.


Just a heads-up. Because of the way developing and testing games work these changes will possibly not make it into the beta immediately but I can guarantee you it'll be corrected for the final game. Basically there are turn-around times at work here


will there be other controls options

Quote from DICE dev Sibben

We have alternative control schemes but they're not all set yet. I'll keep this in mind.


How are you going to balance snipers

Quote from DICE dev Sibben

Snipers are alwyas a tricky balance. It's lots of fun sniping people but not so fun being sniped. We're not totally done on the snipers yet and the beta will probably help us alot in this regard. Headshots with the right ammo will be one shot kills in most instances but not always.

The balance between snipers/other classes works pretty well in-house but I'll be monitoring the stats online now the betas come up to see how they compare to the other classes. We really want to allow people to snipe without it being a snipe fest. That's the tricky part. But rest assured. This is something we're careful with.



reason for xbox360 beta delay:

Because there is a problem between DICE and MS with the beta software not working on xbox maybe, the issue is unknown, its NOT, its NOT an intentional delay from EA or DICE
