After getting a bit burned out on MW2, I'm really looking forward to this.

This looks leagues better than the first. Hopefully it play as fast paced as these trailers make it out to be. My problem with BFBC1 was it was very cut and dry/boring. Not trying to sound like MW2 fanboy(I'm more of a Killzone 2 one lol), but a game needs to keep me on my toes and the battle going on ASAP after I spawn. Killzone 2 like I mentioned with its sh*t storm of crazy going on is what I like in my FPS'. This trailer had that and hopefully the final product will remain that way. :D

The multiplayer looks addictive and it could really compete with MW2 because technically its an impressive battlefield to be around and survive in

Battlefield has always had a better multiplayer than Call of Duty, much more "epic", plus the sound design in the battlefield games is amazing.

I really hope the end product is like this, since the first was (for me at least) a matter of cowering from the tank by any means necessary.

Man I wish they would update the beta with a new map. Can't wait till this game comes out. The battles are just a ton of fun and the new modes look great and will prevent burnout a lot better.

The only thing is you will never find a team that will work together like that. In all of these multiplayer FPS's everyone is always out for themselves

The sound is amazing. Echoes and distanced gunfire really give this game's sound a huge boost.

Actually, pretty much everything in that trailer except for the last bit with the perfectly hovering helicopter could easily happen in a Battlefield game.

hmm, it could happen, but not easily... unless it was scripted. some of those shots are downright movie commercial-epic. i have had my fair share of these games and those moments rarely ever happen, let alone all at once!

all the voices you are hearing are not from players, those are in the game though. I like it because it sounds like something your friends should be saying instead of random crap. So even if no one uses a mic you will still hear the chatter from your squadmates.

Great sound design in this game. It has a different and if so more settled down feel than MW2, I'm more interested in this game now :)

I'm really looking forward to BF:BC2 as an alternative means from MW2; everything so far looks great.

Back when I played Bad Company 1 this kind of shit would happen fairly often. Albeit in bits and pieces and not as fluidly as these trailers depict, although I am speaking from my own short experience with the first Bad Company, but this is pretty much the reality of the Battlefield series. Huge, epic, chaotic, and most importantly: fun.  There's an organic quality to the way a Battlefield match plays out that no other game has come close to.
 
These trailers could easily be made by merely sitting a bunch of people down in front of the game and just taking the most exciting clips from their playthroughs. No scripting needed.

It happens a ton in the first bad company. Though when they were at the flag and the tank shots flew buy everybody.. that part ususally never happens, especially when its a tank.. and they have more than machineguns. 
 
But yeah, theres no doubt this was scripted (and he sure had a ton of rockets >_>) but I have had tons of more crazy moments in BF:BC1, the vehicles and the destructibility of the levels make for some insane gameplay. 
 
I can barely wait for this! =D

It's amusing seeing comments about things being scripted after playing the beta.  And yeah, they do need to release another flipping map.  I think everyone knows Arica front and back, each round's a slugfest.
