Battlefield 2 Multiplayer Demo "Gulf of Oman"

[Kraxis]

Don't like it very much...

Far too fast (sometimes it looks like everything is going at FF especially destroyed vehicles), weapons too weak (sniping is damn near useless with the speed and weakness of weapons), vehicles too weak (tanks are almost a waste of time to me). And the explosions are actually a step backwards compared to BFV, and the vehicles look somewhat cartoony compared to the previous games.
It seems it has been dumbed down somehow, and yet it has gotten a lot of rather nice features that demand more control and intelligence. Arty pounding an enemy, but with the speed everybody i running around with does take away a lot of its power, best against snipers (but given their weakness it is rather pointless). Cool that you have to protect something at all costs. The increase in weapons and styles is good, though some of them are weak, and a lot feels the same.

Sadly the feel of BFV is gone, when I shoot an AK in BFV it feels like it, now it feels just like any other weapon. And because of the speed I have found handgrenades to be much weaker than before, people simply get out of the way too fast (maybe the blastradius is lowered?).
All this generates a game where it is a rushfest much more than before (rushing should be part of the game but not the all-conquering strategy).

This is going to take for me to like, if at all.
