If you're expecting COD, you're not going to get it. It's a squad based, team based game.
The beta is excellent so far... I think I've played it 6 hours or so and I'm not even close to being sick of it.

It's really not a team based game. 2 people can wipe out a team, they buffed the guns..
And no I'm not expecting call of duty, I played Bad Company 2 and I'm better then most people I encounter in Battlefield 3. I know how the game works..

This is my first Battlefield game. I'm highly impressed so far, though. EA really stepped up their game. Hopefully that means that Activision/Infinity Ward/Treyarch (fat chance) will step up their game when it comes to turning out Call of Duty titles. I wish that meant that we would only get one every couple of years, so that the developers could actually devote more time to creating new and innovative gameplay and fixing all the problems that have plagued this series since it became a huge hit.

Yeah the whole releasing of the game every year like it's a sports title pisses me off. I know two different devs work on them every year but, it still degrades the quality and creativity that could be put into the titles. Not to mention it fragments the community. Right now there are like 3 or 4 CoD games in the XBL top 20.

I highly doubt it. By the way, anyone else slightly annoyed by that new get under the map glitch in the first portion of the map? The sad thing is that you don't even have to try to get under it, it just sucks you in like quicksand.

Nah, I highly doubt they will. Highly.
The only pesky things from the beta for me so far:
1. People blow holes in the ground and hide in them near the objectives. They can shoot you and you can't shoot them. The way I get around this is to find the hole and chuck a grenade in it.
2. If you die near another gun or the objective, the Press (whatever) to switch/activate stays on your screen really large until you get near it again to make it go away. I haven't found a way around this yet other than to get close and make it go away.
3. I wish we could hide player names. I'm a big proponent of hitting select to mark my enemies... however, if you ADS at them their name shows up as well as the little mark you put over their head. Unless you have a good scope it's pretty difficult to aim at them by just looking at the mark over their head. I'm sure I'll get more used to it, but it fluctuates depending on how long the persons name is.
4. If you're recon and place a respawn beacon on top of rocks or near a wall you can spawn under the rocks or inside the wall. The rocks is pretty funny as you can shoot out of them and no one can shoot you. The wall however, is terrible. You have to suicide your way out of either, though.
What have you guys found?
