I'm not pre-ordering a game ever again after my mishap with MW2 :badrazz:
I think the beta is great, the map Port valdez is very good, the only way to succeed is teamwork. if spent the best part of 2 days playing it and have enjoyed every game. There is still alot of code missing though but so far it looks like a contender to replace Mw2 imo. The beta takes ages to download btw.
I wouldn't say its great, has some potential, very reminiscent of the old black hawk down games.
They could do with tweaking....
Graphics and controls, need tightening imo not that slick yet.
Searching for servers is slow and dodgy, you get a list, then you have to filter, even then you try to join and most of the ones showing space are already full.
Let me use the escape key to go back in menus!
Quite long load times (but the games last a while, at least Rush does)
Dedicated servers is a bonus though. Would also be nice if the Beta had some other game modes although I do quite like "rush".
The beta took me 7 minutes to download.

Glad I am not playing on a console, the controls are awful compared to keyboard/mouse.
