Reserved! You can blow up the whole map on this game and jump in and take any vehicle you see. Sounds too good to be true, can't wait

I was wondering the same thing. I think In the email it said it was okay to put it in now though. So that you can have it already downloaded by the time the beta is playable :).

See you guys on the Battlefield :).

Been waiting for this for a long time. 90% of the environment is destructible. Just like Red Faction!

Got my key. Download it tonight.

Wow, I had no idea about this! Thanks man, I got a key. All it took was a less than 2 minute registration @ IGN/FilePlanet and I was good to go.

Can't wait for the 25th!

I posted a topic on this yesterday...I am more interested in seeing what they are going to do about persistent stats. Bf2 pioneered it (PC version) and I hope they take it to a level beyond CoD4...I get to find out on the 25th! Woot!

i have no doubt in my mind this gameplay will make COD4 lick dirt...but ya, i'm a little concerned about the ranking/unlocking system. DICE hasn't mentioned a single thing about it...have they?

No they haven't...thats what troubles me. Seriously, BF2 and CoD4 have me completely hooked over the stats, unlocks, ranking etc. Highly addictive features.

Not any more. Keys are exhausted. I'm tempted to just buy an payed account but I can tell if I did the beta keys would get passed around on forums and no doubt i'd probably be able to get one there. Then I just wasted my money on payed account.

Check out the video and details of the gold rush game mode at IGN. Great info for those in the beta. Gold Rush sounds like good attack/defend fun.

This gadget sounds way too cool:

Tracer Dart Pistol
Used by the specialist, the tracer dart pistol attaches a transponder to enemies, which emits a high frequency signal that links up to the guidance system of friendly rockets.

  • When the dart is in place, all demolitions will be advised, and are then able to lock on and launch a homing missile at the target.
  • While not smart enough to navigate streets, the missile will home inexorably in on the unfortunate target.
  • Though this requires a high degree of coordination, skilled squads will be able to link up and utilise this combination to deadly effect.

I presume that'll happen later on. When the CoD4 Beta keys were gone from the official website, Gamespot was able to give out loads more not long after. Assuming there's about 100,000 participating (I have no idea of the official number), there's no way they ran out that quick @ IGN.

Sorry to everyone that didn't get one.
