    touche' ZIPS!


    I think they have completely put the focus clearly on infantry combat with vehicles just an afterthought.......again.....they just removed the only "battlefield" part of the beta.

    The way I see it, even if it's a beta, it's also a demo. And they lost sales on the decision of OP Metro as the beta map. Just like Anarchy said.

    They sold the "MoH/CoD experience", not the "Battlefield experience" which was featured in Caspian Border.

    They probably closed it down after all the bitching that was going on in the battlelog forums, holy crap...I get a headache every time I go in there...

    I really wouldn't be surprised if the decision of Op. Metro over Caspian cost them sales. Whatever they call it, this was still primarily a demo. I know a lot of people who were excited Thursday to play the beta who had never played BF before. Most of them wanted to see the large-scale vehicle combat everyone talks about. Needless to say, a lot of them weren't very impressed when I talked to them today.

    It appears that they recognize that people don't like it though:

    @zh1nt0 @locust9 @L_Twin @Battlefield You are all aware that over 90% of players hate Op metro aren't you? We want battlefield maps DICE!

    Reply from zh1nt0: @daz_black we've seen the feedback. Thanks.

    i have to admit i am very angry that they chose metro as the beta map. metro just plain sucks and is nothing like what battlefield should be. the dark, crappy subway and close quarter spam fests do not show what battlefield is about, not to mention the complete lack of vehicles. i didnt get a chance to play caspian border so now i am stuck with metro for a few weeks and i am already sick of it. not good for if people were on the fence about getting this game. very poor decision by dice.

    I agree wholeheartedly, I only played Caspian Border for an hour or so, but it was probably the most fun I've had in a FPS game in a LONG time. At least now I know that BF3 will be my FPS of choice for a long time.

    Thank you for testing Caspian Border

    It´s been 3 days full of win!

    Thank you everyone who participated in testing Caspian Border with us during the Open Beta. We of course cherish and appreciate the time you have put into supplying is with good feedback. We will of course read it through and discuss it internally.

    Testing has now been completed and we are shutting down the Caspian Border servers.


    The best thing about the beta and they're denying access to it? Listen DICE and EA, you aren't doing a very good job at selling your game by having Rush Mode on Metro. The enjoyment factor? Pretty low. You're also really worrying off your old-school Battlefield fans with this because a lot of them believe that this is what the game is going to be like.

    How's about you just throw the community a bone, bring back those Caspian Border servers without passwords, and give everyone a good taste of the true Battlefield experience?
