Yeah sometimes it sounds like they were looking to make people switch to Win8 Well I don't know about anyone else, but I wouldn't switch to that crap for any game, no matter which one.
Just wanted to tell you that you're the bravest man I ever had the pleasure to read the comment of.
Bravest man? Not really (you were probably being sarcastic anyway). I would dual boot if I had a more spacious HDD, I wouldn't just completely replace win7 with win8
Nice review, I loved when he said "if you remember Metro, yeah, horrible horrible map"
He got the laser sight/green sight wrong though. It's not just a cosmetic difference, one is steatlhier than the other, but at the same time less disruptive to the enemy you're pointing it at.
This map is so aggravating, at any given time half the server is jerking off on the roof of some building in the middle of nowhere. Why did Dice have to put elevators in so many buildings?
Fighting over the roof of C can be fun, but once its destroyed they all scurry like cockroaches to different roofs that have no strategic value. Last game 3 of my squad never left that UN looking building opposite C, and there was an entire 5 man squad who never left another
You basically may as well half the server limit, because thats how many people are actually playing at a given time
@hailey that's gonna happen no matter the map design. The playerbase is unfortunately filled with COD kiddies and other jackasses who only want to ownz as snipurrzors.
From the little I've managed to see (only been able to play "minutes") the map design is good as it gives many routes and options, and I really like the different elevations.
nah, it's really the map that is poorly designed. It's like metro all over again. Not saying it's the same problem, but it's just as poorly done. For conquest anyway. it's probably a lot better for rush.
Was just playing on a server and the enemy team had a commander dropping down cruise missiles and deploying UAVs. Grrrrr
Also hada relly good run in the chopper and then got a connection time out. Grrrr x 2
I hope the gunner is OK though
Edit: The map is not bad by itself, you just need proper teamwork. People using choppers to clear the roofs, for one.
Most of the snipers suck, thankfully.

Well, what I have heard is that apparently it's not suited for 64 players but rather for 32.

Yes it will always happen but dice literally designed the game now to support camping idiot recons. When you put a few hours into this you'll realize how retarded it is when half the server is doing nothing.
If you thought it was bad before, just play a few hours on siege of shangai
Don't say "use choopers" because it requires no effort to get back up to these places thanks to elevators. The game revolves around it now. It's not that these players make things difficult by being on roofs, they honestly do nothing. By using choppers etc you kind of just become part of the problem: the game become Battleroof where you kill them they come back over and over and the actual game is ignored

Once the mortar is introduced, I think we will have less of the roof 1337 snipzors. Though I fear every support will deploy their mortars on every roof and bail since they are remote controlled now.
Plus the map has been out for only few days, so of course people will not really play objective but rather explore and do other stuff. And it's the beta, perfect time to fuck around without the precious kd being destroyed.
If i could only play it without dat lag
Sig too big. -Nothing is too big for Fedor. Expect a nasty armbar.

You secure the point near the camper roof, and then clear the roof. It's not easy to get back there if you have to run through the whole battlefield.
Having the main skyscraper still standing while the enemy team holds it is a bit of a drag, since they can drop on almost any roof from there - that's why you want to take that point (or bring it down, if you can't capture )
Also commanders should pick off those sniper campers easily.
well, mortars are way more fast than a big-ass tomahawk flying towards you in the skies, don't you agree?
with that in mind, you just need to get inside the elevator!

I agree, I quite like the map. It allows for different play styles and the verticality is a nice touch, too bad everybody is a wannabe sniper feget these days which makes the easiest tasks a mission for brave men with no fear. (like conquering the middle island)

I really don't get why people - especially those that have not used it yet - are so annoyed by Win 8... same with Vista back in the day.
so yould you care to explain to my why exactly you feel Win 8 is crap? I assume you have extensively tested it to support your claims...?
I am currently running 8.1 and I don't mind it. It just feels and runs like Win 7 for me. I never really used the start menu since Vista anyway - except to just directly type what I want to run and that works perfectly fine on Win 8 as well. I neither care for nor use metro, at all.
oh and yeah... performance is fine on my end, 1080p @ ultra running smooth
