The main reason i feel that dice owes me content is because there was insufficient content to begin with. 6 conquest maps is hardly enough to work with, especially when only one of them encompasses the full battlefield experience.

I don't mind buying an expansion pack when one comes out but they had better add some more maps in the meantime.

I quite like that you can spawn on any squad member, and for obvious reasons, having 6player squads AND all squad respawn would be imba

feels like the point with being the squadleader is kinda pointless as it is for the moment

indeed , liked it better in bf2 where there was some kind of hierarchy , and not so much n00bfriendlyness , I mean now days you can take out 3 guys in a row and thinking :YES 1 left , piece o' cakez , BANG all three squadmembers spawn M60 on the remaining halfdead nub

I randomly discovered an exploit on one of the maps the other day, I ended up inside a rock and couldn't get out till I back tracked.

I assure you I didn't make any use of it, I was a little afraid someone would think I was deliberately in there and get me banned tbh so I left as quickly as I could.

it's useless because you can't shoot through the rock from the inside

But you remind me of all the cool undiscovered-by-most-people exploits in this game. Should fire it up some time just for those.

I enjoy it. I honestly don't understand 99% of the complaints people have. People die when I shoot them, vehicles are balanced, and the maps are rather glitch-free. Sure, we could use some more maps at this point but I'm sure they're working on that.

It's not a BF game it's a more linear version of COD ... yeah sure it could be even worse but it should have been ALOT better

Hmm tbh if you keep moving, the current hitboxes are crap since you will shoot people in the ass with blood spewing yet doing no damage...

I don't understand why DICE is incapable of doing hitboxes when inferior games are so good at it...

QFT

Seriously, you'd think after BF2 they would realize hitboxes are /kind of/ an important part of a shooting game.

Edit: Wait, so hitboxes get bigger when you're moving now? That's stupid. Now it takes less skill to hit a moving target as sniper. Le sigh.
