Nice site, shows the Armies and such... Everyones using the same Vehicles?
Hope not... Still no official Little bird? Special Forces have Little Birds! :(
Still skeptical though... I'll wait a bit after release before I Decide.

so everyone gets Gas Mask and Night Vision ,
Assault gets FlashBangs and Grapling hooks to CLIMB buildings
Anti-Tank gets Grapling hooks to CLIMB buildings
Sniper and SpecOps get ZipLine to DESCEND from buildings
Eng and Medic get Nothing
Support gets Teargas Launcher
There are new weapons for almost everyone , Unlocks maybe ?
I didn´t saw any new weapon for the sniper .....

Oh dear. Looks like they are merging the concepts from Splinter Cell and BF2. What a great concept. Great, more digital crack.
I think it looks cool. Same thing with more new maps, a few new tools, what can be bad about it?
Heh.
No new planes?
There is no planes in SF...

You actually expect the Battlefield 2 community to play in a Splinter Cell like manner? :laugh: The moment you try to be stealthy, the pseudo-hack UAV or the scan will locate you, it's useless. Then again, EA doesn't have a good share of Ubisoft...wouldn't be surprised if they didn't just own most of them soon like they do DICE.

I didn't say anything about how individuals would play. You know, they mention the stealth element as a core element of the game. Let's see how it unfolds.

True. I don't see stealth happening. With the scan and UAV present, not to mention the mentality of most BF players, I just don't see stealth being a component of it.

So basically out of the things listed ...this is what's 'new'
6 new forces – Navy Seals, British SAS, Russian Spetznas, MEC Special Forces, Rebel groups and Insurgents, each with their own unique arsenal and tactics
This just sounds like a few new weapons...so far so good.
8 new maps –strategic locations featuring expanded indoor play
Getting warmer...
10 new vehicles, including the Desert Raider, Combat ATV, and Apache Longbow
okay...
Special Forces weapons and gadgets including zip line, grappling hook, tear gas, and flash bang grenades
Tear gas and flash bangs.....what's the difference? Sorry...weak attempt. Zipline and grapplin' hook sounds kewl for now.
Dynamic Lighting and Low Light Vision bring stealth and tactics to the battlefield, allowing players to hide in the dark or spot enemies with night vision goggles
I doubt this will work...the usual 'look slightly right and get increased visibiltity on your left' trick will probably see through the shadows.
Generalized Triggering System used to control key elements of the environment
Such as press E to turn on lights....wow..
I'm still buying it...but mostly just for the maps.

Hardcore Gamer: Hey this ex pack Sux!!! Just a bit of fluff to distract us from the impending mods, no way I'm buying this until I hear wicked reviews! Sure the Apache and Hind are nice, but we'll get all that s#@t and more in Desert Conflict!
EA: So these hardcores aren't going to buy it? We'll then we'll release it at Xmas so thier familiy members will virtually fight over who buys it for them, they may even get 2 copies!
Hardcore Gamer: NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOo
Number 1: We even delayed the mod kit so our timing is right! There's no way the big mods will arrrive in time!
EA: Excellent!
EA + Number 1: MUHAHAHAHA MUAHAHAHAHAHAH

They can't even program a website correctly and put the back and next buttons in order. How do we expect them to make a 3D computer game and fix the bugs?
