Battlefield Heroes Closed Beta


Recommended Posts

cool signed up :) hopefully it wont take as long as it took for QL invite to get :p

For some reason I love playing QL. But, there's hardly anyone ever playing. And those that are playing are most of the time the uber players from Q3 itself who can own you with a rail from across the galaxy. :D

I really like this game. And I haven't been interested in PC multiplayer FPSs since the CS days. Not sure what my favorite class is yet, but I was liking the Commando a lot. I'll have to play some more tomorrow.

Technically you are still not interested in PC Multiplayer FPSs, as Heroes is a third person shooter... Unless I am missing something on how to change it to First Person???

Nope you are correct Larry, it is a TPS, I beleive there was a way of forcing first person, but I think the exploit was removed in the last private beta. I really love the game, spending too much time flitting between games lately though, with BF:H, L4D, UT3 and FC2 (what a load of acronyms).

No, it's third person. So I should have said shooters in general :p
