Unlocking guns and getting gold stars is really the only point of the game. Remove that and the game sucks.

Hey so I am in the Alpha Trial.

Anyone else get a email to join? I am downloading the game now.

Sucks that I just got the email yesterday (it opened on the 21st) and it closes on August 1st. But oh well, I'll get 5 days with it.

^I hate you.

Do me a solid......I'm dying to know if the flight controls are (reasonably) the same as BF2. Your impressions would be appreciated, though I'll still hate you.

The alpha only contains a single Rush map with a single vehicle (LAV-25 apc)

Open beta in Sept. will answer our flight questions

First of all, I can't discuss the game or post videos (I took some though ), but the Alpha trial only has 1 map and it is Rush. There are no planes, and only 1 armored vehicle (I am blanking on the name right now) in the map.

I will say the game looks really good though. There are a few stuff they added that will annoy some people. Prone is not one those things though, prone is cool.

I hate playing the game on a PC though. I have been using a controller for FPS for over a decade, suddenly going to the PC is though and my aim is brutal as is my movement.

I don't expect that to last long. Of course, neither does your Alpha. =P

Open your web browser window then open the game. For some reason when the game launches the login window it doesn't work.

I've tried - it looks like my only fix would be to deal with tech support, but as this expires tomorrow, I'm not going to bother.

Don't know if this is real: http://www.physicalwarfare.com/

But if it is, looks like closed beta starts on Wednesday.

I guess that means I need to install Origin and preorder I guess.
