Yeah! That's really unfair. I think the only way you can get it is from the EA download store.

Looks pretty cool if not somewhat cheap combat. And by cheap, I mean the cheap-Rambo-thrills kind of cheap, not nooby cheap.

Please explain more. Because I'm not totally understanding what you mean. Rambo was a one man army. BF has dozens of men by your side and vehicles firing and etc. It doesn't sound very Rambo to me. Also after a few hits you're dead, unlike CoD where you can take like 3 clips and be fine.

Touche. To clarify I meant the general health system in game modes like Team Deathmatch.

I still haven't gotten my beta key email. Then again I did preorder in store, but still lame if that's the factor.

I really don't like the online demo. Every game I have joined so far, someone has gotten a chopper and mowed down my team. I will rent the full game once it is released but I am almost certain I will be sticking to CoD.

Hahahahahahhahah. Welcome to every single battlefield game. That is extremely prevalent in BF2 and BF2142.

Battlefield 2 choppers were easy to take down in my opinion. The choppers in BC2 just seem way too overpowered.

I like it, but I wish the demo had more than one map. I'm starting to get bored.

I do like the Level 2 area of the Attackers' advance. Love just camping Bravo (the one in the house upstairs) with my Shotgun as they desperately try to disarm the charge.

I just have to be careful with the demo, because if I play it too much, I'll expect too much, and then we have LotR Conquest all over again.

I've gotten some really nice videos of the demo:

Black Hawk Pwnage

Black Hawk Down (That one was really cool)

Attack Chopper Pwnage

Really? My friends & I all think the opposite. The gunner's weapon is fine, but the pilot's rockets feel underpowered. Then again, attacking or defending, we're the ones in the helicopter 70% of the time, so we've always been less than intimidated by 'em. lol

I must have been on some horrible teams ahah. The RPG's are fun, yet I have had a direct hit on someone and they haven't died which seemed weird.

I downloaded and installed BC2, hoping, on my slim chance that I might be able to play without a key. It all went good until I went to log into my EA Account, and then it asked me for one.

Dang. I tried.
