      The squad system is more conducive to all modes of gameplay. Consider 1942, DC Mod etc. You could literally spend 3 -4 minutes running to get to the action; only to die instantly to a vehicle once you get there. Squad systems let you get back into the battle nice and quick. The only issue i had with BC2's squad spawn system was the second or so invulnerability the spawned member had. Fortunately BF3 doesn't have this. The only adjustment I can see occurring is the recon's beacon. It needs to have a shorter life time.

      Also, the Squad system is reportedly 'lite' for the beta. I've read (unconfirmed) reports that it's going to be very similar to BC2.

In BF2 you at least had to have the Squad leader stand back for a spawn point or at least leave the squad to make someone else squad leader so the rest of the team could spawn if they wanted.

      Pub play. Who cares. Not like half the team is there for the objectives of wining or team play - they are just there for cod style killing with vehicles.
      BF:BC2 let you either PICK the squad you wanted or create your own - regardless of any other shit in there, this is an important feature.

      Lenko - i hope you heard right. Tho it seems weird to do it this way for beta.

  • CS:GO gets a substantial content update
    by rec
    Counter-Strike: Global Offensive was just updated again, making a number of changes and additions to the game. The default map has been switched from Inferno to Train, which appears to be a far better recreation than Inferno, apart from the fog issue. There are also a bunch of new weapons: the Para, the TEC-9 Pistol, the SG 552 (pictured), and the AUG....

  • Counter-Strike: Global Offensive beta impressions
    by rec
    I've been shooting some face in the CS:GO beta for the first time this evening, and there's quite a bit to talk about. I should preface this impressions article with the note that while I used to play at a national level, it has been years since I've delved into any CS in any serious capacity. I'm sure there will be a number of current day elitists out there who disagree with my opinions, but I'm not claiming this as gospel, so append as much or as little weight to these opinions as you care to....
