Apparently this was Bf2 before it was even released.

Yes I searched.

Yep, BF2 used to have real kick-ass stuff

edit: in its alpha / E3 demo stages

That's possibly the worst bastardisation from the E3 demo to real product I've ever seen.   So much was lost.

Holy shizam! That would be nice to play! Loved the way that I guy at the tank bit dolphin dived. lol

Surprised those guys could kill standing with those PKMs. They also looked like the British soldiers in the PR mod! And the soldiers, probably US, looked like the US SF in Special Forces.

And the iron sights for the GL actually allowed you to see through the sights. No doubt, the same could be done with shotties.

I actually think those videos look like crap.  The way the players are animated?  Like BF Vietnam, really.

Notice you could still see iron sights through the acog/red dot scope.

Probably because you don't play in all high settings. The graphics in the vid are the same but less polished. You just think it looks better because it's something different and video editing techniques.

fuck i want those M4 sights
they even made fucking ragdoll physics
the guy was killed by the barrel @ 1:56 in the first video

i seen somewhere that they took lots of things away due to preformance issues
that bf2 needed 1GB RAM minimun
which was a beast and quite expensive back then

i can swear there is a thread around here that had all the stuff that was taken away
like poision gas and harpoons in SF and the Lynx in EF

There seems to be some postprocessing in this video. The exhaust of the helicopter an the jets for example. I cannot say wich smoke/explosion effects have been added afterwards.

Yeah, i gotta say, the first video was not much to be excited about...the second video was cool.  What was with the tanks...locking on??

I dunno, though.  I still play BF2 a lot, so I still like the game

promotion videos are always staged and get polished up, you could do the same with the current version of battlefield.

That was my missing content guide on the wiki, that got lost during the downtime.

Well, the original HUD on armour actually had a reading that told you the range to the target....

Ive never seen that first video before, well, in that format anyway. I swear Ive seen it, but played out differently with the spec ops with the Simrad on the roof of a building (which is actually that second, E3 video)
Also, the map is Divided City, was never released with the game, but a remake can be found for download.

0:57...black helmets that Delta use (well, in BHD anyway), which has been removed from Spec Ops in the released game.
1:01...the player gets promoted, look at the size of the rank insignia on the left hand side (and the iron sight thru the red dot scope).
1:45...tank fires, and destroys green barrels (with physics effects). This cant be done in the released game.

I love how in some threads people complain about graphics beeing dumbed down and in other threads (*cough* Crysis *cough) people complain about the graphics beeing too nice (can't run them on their shitty PC)...
