Infantry mode, as in infantry only maps? If so, then yeah, they are :). Also, they just announced that health regen is optional and can be toggled on and off by server admins.

Well, they did make it better. You're only spotted as long as you're out in the open. As soon as you find cover, the dot disappears (only for infantry, not vehicles).

Aw that sucks, it was fun randomly shooting at a triangle and getting a headshot straight through a forest xD

2 days early access? Meh I can deal with it. Operation Metro again? Seriously now? Seriously? I hope they modified the map at the very least. It was so imba for the defenders. Attackers had no chance of getting to the 4th base.

Basically. Going through the subway you could hardly spot a gunner, because it was dark and they shot you before you even looked around.

I'm kind of scared that I won't like the maps. They look much smaller for some reason, I might be getting that impression because they're all urban. Hopefully they'll keep some jungle-themed ones. :love:

Urban-themed are way too open and smaller usually. I don't feel safe hiding. I like to be sneaky sneaky behind the trees. =3

Conquest mode, is the way Battlefield should be played. Not rush.

I actually like rush game modes. Now if they surprised us and said they're putting in Titan mode youtu.be/8QfSzgV1q5g I don't feel like having the link embedded

Titan mode, converted to BF3 as in having to destroy a bunker? With missle pods, launching missle at the bunker etc?

In BF2 I did very well with only my mouse, however, players with joysticks were able to (most of the time) Out manuever me in dogfights. But I owned them sometimes, when I took them by surprise.
But overall, players flying with joysticks are better.
