[PC] Battlefield: Heroes

Totally going to give this a shot when it comes out. All I can hope is they actually deliver on what they're promising, and the gameplay mechanics themselves aren't totally out of whack.

The only thing I'm worried about is if it becomes too oriented at casual gamers I won't be able to get any good teamwork going, which is totally the most fun part of TF2/Battlefield/etc.

Jam it back in, in the dark.

I just got my beta key this morning and installed the game to play it for about 30 minutes. The game seems pretty neat; hit detection is less buggy than in BF1942 or BF2 which is nice, but snipers are still really gay. I'm also not sure how I feel about your profile only being able to take one particular class since I'm someone that really likes to switch up between different classes depending on how battlefield conditions are. (In the beta you get four profiles, for each you select a side and a class, so you can do 4/6 options. Also, no deleting profiles yet.).

Not sure how I feel about unlockable weapons which you only get for X many days for what you put into them, since it penalizes people that play the game recreationally, but maybe you get so many Valor Points (the stuff used to buy weapons) while playing it doesn't matter much.

Tanks don't feel too massively overpowered, as it takes more than one direct hit from the cannon to kill you, but it's still a major pain to kill them when you're not in a tank yourself. I played as the assault class, and there's no rocket launcher by default, only sticky dynamite with a very short throw range (and it takes a few sticks to take them out, too).

Additional Spam:
Been playing the game a bit more.

Pretty much right now the sniper is moderately overpowered since they have abilities that let them get to crazy impossible to shoot places unless you're also a sniper. I bought the rocket launcher for my assault character, and he's now a heck of a lot more effective. He should really come with it instead of making it an unlock.

I still suck at flying airplanes. Is anyone out there actually good at it with a mouse and keyboard?

There's nowhere I can't reach.

Have they released any more maps/weapons? I haven't played for a few weeks now because what was available started to feel really tired, and I got sick of every map being a sniperfest.

This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it.
