Well, it's nice to see that people will still use the m203 as their main weapon rather than the suggested secondary. :rolleyes:

Like they did on the original? That almost looks just like the guys we were promised in the original. oi...

I'm tired of all the hype, where's some news on the dang patch. Patch first, expansion later EA. C'mon.

i dont like the idea of the sniper getting a crossbow, id rather something like a silenced semi-auto sniper but i guess its better for variety

i know, im an idiot. i meant, the sniper shouldnt get the crossbow (for shooting the zipline) since they said earlier that assault would get it. unless they just put the crossbow on him for show

Spec Ops has it too

I think every class has it..I might be wrong though...I liked the part where the guy was trying to get up on the plane with a hook....that was cool

Well, I guess it looks ok considering it's just an Expansion, not an entirely new game. It looks fine. One thing that I am absolutely ecstatic about is there looked to be NO reticle bloom effect on the crosshair!
YAY! NO RETICLE BLOOM!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I HATE reticle bloom.



Me starting to like EA/DICE.:p

From looking at the kits when they changed weapons it looks like special ops will have the G36C or K. And the engineer will get the HK M7 SMG.

damn right they better not be tryin to get our minds off the patch with these videos they seem like they put them together fast because they were like 10sec each with 10min of ea dice and sf lol

So...it's been well over a month since the patch was officially delayed, and we've not heard a single thing about it - yet we've been swamped with several updates for this god damn expansion. I'm not happy.

Renders look nice. Lets hope they stay that way.

Is it just me or is there no sound at all when that character moves down by that zipline.
So moving down by that zipline wont have a windy whoooooooos into your ears or a sound while moving down by that zipline when you hear you moving down on that iron cable?

Weird!

BTW how nice to spoil the community with those ridicilous short video clips!

bit of tumbleweed rolls by as we wait for the patch.

The delay on the patch is no doubt gonnae slow the release of the mods too :(

Holy ****, they're so called "SAS" model, if bloody ****e.

Wow, those models are so cool, I don't know which I like more! Totally awesome, the SAS guy looks mean as.. ;)

Typically though, goes without saying that the patch is conveniently not mentioned heh ;)

spec ops doesnt get it, i think specops gets the zippline/crossbow, and assault gets the grappling hook for ascending buildings, thats where i got confused i think

Ragdoll physics still look fubar, I hope this get fixed cause it's a definate atmosphere ruiner for me.

Don't even get me started on the zipline.

if you THINK so..then don't correct me please...I saw it in the video(#2)
Spec Ops took out his Crossbow...you can see his set of weapons

also, it looks like MP7 is for engineer....video#1
