Haha thats always a good start as plenty dont. Does annoy me that people run around as support class but never dish out any ammo. I play assault mostly but am always dishing out medi packs and reviving people.
Being in a squad is crucial especially as the perks you unlock later on benefit you and your entire squad. Also means you can usually spawn directly into the action rather than having to run for ages from the default spawn point.

im not impressed - I must be to used to COD it just doesnt feel right

I probably will as its coming out before MW3. Play it for a few weeks and see how I get on with the extra maps, vehicles etc. If I dont get on and prefer MW3 then chop it in. Havent got time to play both.
I was focues on getting MW3 but I like the fact BF is different and more team orientated. Doubt much will have changed in MW3 tbh.
Feels quite similar to 2142 in terms of feel & play at least for me. Granted Gfx on PS3 arent mind blowing but they are decent enough. Hopefully they are better on the full game as beta was only a 1gb download.

I enjoyed Dead Island very similar to Oblivion/Fallout in the style of game,online was great no waiting in lobbies to join a game you just joined and left whenever you wanted to.
Plenty of missions,special weapons,modding weapons,4 characters to pick from,quite a good evolving storyline.
P1fanatic I will be picking it up next week possibly at the midnight launch just got to find which supermarket is cheapest

Ive got mine pre-ordered at local sains. Im hoping someone will do a special deal (sains lol) but I have a feeling they wont. They say if you pre-order you get the Limited Edition but I bet if you turn up on the day you will still get that version.
Even if I dont get on with it (Cant imagine I wont as reallly got into the beta and that was 1 map and no vehicles/aircraft) then I just play for 2 weeks and flog it and pick up MW3.
Looking forward to a change though as overplayed MW2.

From what I can see practically every version you buy from anywhere is the "Limited Edition".
What varies from place to place is the extra add-on's you get besides that.
I'm buying it but not sure where from yet.
