The 3 "biggest" problems I had with the beta are solved. Hit Registration, Mini Map and Squad Management.

I love how Wake has been in all major Battlefield games. It's such a great map.

Great news, and I also heard on the EA forums that the commo rose will either be included in the retail version, or added in a future patch. Can't be without communication!

The (austrian) site I preordered on has a reputation for sending games out early, so I might actually get the game the same time you people in the US do. Thats nice. And Im gonna upgrade my graphics card and put in a new CPU cooler so BF3 should run well at a mix of Ultra/high/medium. Thats nice, too. And Ive got the week after the BF3 release free(holidays). Thats even nicer. Having preordered the limited edition means getting another 4 maps. Thats very nice.

I am weak. Redid my pre-order. Playing BFBC2 again made me want more of it and a more refined version of it. Missed the beta due to network issues. :( I did enjoy what I played of the Alpha though. But Battlelog can still DIAF. They should also make the Options accessible before you spawn.

I can tell you right now, my friends and I are gonna start trying to land on helis. If we're on defense, we're definitely gonna be seeing either who can snipe or who can RPG a parachuter first. Either way it's a win/win.
