Where did I go right?
Just wondering if anyones played or watched this yet. I brought it a couple of days ago. For me it majorly beats the first one.

I never played the first one, but I've rented the second, and of a mixed opinion.
It's good. I wouldn't call it great.

Definitely better than the first. A friend and I did the coop thing and it was entertaining.

Kneel Before Zod!
It definetly was better than the 1st one, but way too short of game play. i beat within 6-8 hours. ( Including Galatical Conquest etc.)

I don't like the auto-lock on feature... I liked in the first how you could change targets easily; but now you tend to have your crosshair dragged after that guy you didn't want to shoot anymore.
Space combats cool, though I miss making bombing runs on infantry...
It's also somewhat fast paced, all of it; more so than the first, which seems painfully slow now.
I think it's an improvement, though I wish they had a better way of working the Heroes; as it can be a pain in the ass working with the Instant Action function... you should just be able to select 'use all heroes straight up'. (Which you can, but then as you continue through the missions, it starts playing up and you soon have to work on getting points to have the Hero - despite selecting having them as a starting mission option class.)
But, for the most part, I find enjoyment in playing it; and it's very much like Halo to Halo 2... I don't think I could go back to BF 1.

BF1 was basically deathmatch with a little bit of CTF. Having only that one game mode really turned me off to it. Does BF2 offer more gameplay options?

Vance Jas; Sith Lord
Yeah. It has CTF, Death Match, Hunt, Assault, and a few others I can't remember off the top of my head. About 6+ in all, I think. I haven't explored the play modes yet, but I will eventually.

Hunt is a lot of fun especially on Naboo. You can hunt down and kill as many Gungun's as you want. Or on Endor and you can kill Ewoks. All in all, I like playing as Maul. Badass throwing a double-bladed saber around.

The previews looked like it was centered on Episode III. Is there still a Rebel V.S. Empire as much as Clone V.S. Droid?
