    Really glad they choose to remove "dumb" bombing. That really pissed me off in BF2.

    Kinda bummed about the "No Commander" deal. Didn't like running commander, but intricate part of the game imho. :angry2:

    "Commander" was never something I even cared to try (or got the chance to due to rank prioritization). I am glad that they are pushing more of the commander-like features down into the squad.

    Commanding was neither my cup of tea. However in every clan I've been in there was at least one guy that really liked it and played BF2 hence as a strategy game. And I can tell that having a dedicated commander on your team always makes the difference when compared to no commander or n00b commander.. I trust Dice completly not to fuxx this up and if indeed the commanding position is more based on squad level than 1 dedicated commander I'm ok with that.. Nevertheless I'll eventually miss shouting "even my grandma could do better!" to n00b squads.. :whistling1:

    By pushing it down to squad level...you are eliminating the "dedicated" role. Hard to command & communicate /strategize with other squads when you are in the heat of battle. Was a feature that really set the game apart. I think it's was a huge mistake to eliminate it, but time shall tell.

    For those that didn't get to experience the Alpha and want to see what the Beta is going to be like, here is a pre-release BF3 Beta steam.

    Everything looks the same as the Alpha so far but now you can adjust graphical settings and key bindings. Also it looks DICE removed the LAV from the Beta.
