So who has actually bought this?

Myself and about 8 guidlies from Warhammer have jumped in with both feet, would be cool to get on vent with a few of you guys, so I can tell you all how much I want to touch your rude bits while playing.

oh yeah and Poag come fly my helicopter plix!! Best pilot ever!!!!!!!!!!

Installed it last night, and loving it. Haven't had much chance to play Multiplayer but played a bit of Singleplayer and its better than the first one and the Mouse and Keyboard make so much difference. It still looks great on my 2yr old machine on mid settings. It may drag me away from Star Trek Online for awhile.

Bit disappointed with the vehicle aspect of the game tbh, reminds me of older battlefields where you can shoot someone with a tank cannon, get a direct hit and them just running away.. vehicles are about as realistic as wonderland. Just been playing for the last hour or so and so far i'm regretting buying it, its awfully fun but people let your team down quite often by camping or sitting trying to snipe people and not spotting :l that paired with toss vehicle mechanics isn't making for a worthy buy, even BF2 was more realistic than this, atleast people died when you shot them with a tank in that :p

never had any problems killingppl with the tank ... perhaps you not taking account of the weapon drop over time and you are landing short...

Vehicles work ok imo ... you just need a decent server where ppl are discouraged from camping imo

Not that I play this, but change server is what I would say, and play with fellow fweddies!

Game is being ruined by bugs... sad face... will give it a week or so to sort itself out. Single player was fun though! if short but sweet. Back to TF2 then, pretty sure I'll be playing TF2 in 2020, get bored of playing my latest game and I always go back, also DICE could learn on how to make a multiplayer interface that is crap from valve.

Aye i'd say, friends list doesn't work properly sometimes it can't connect to EA random disconnects among other bent things.... i'd rather they waited longer to bring it out rather than put up with this many bugs, I paid for a game to play not to sit and stare at while they fix it.

Well just got a refund on this after an hour on the phone with EA, fun game but definately not worth £20 given how many bugs and flaws there are.

And where did you get it for £20? Cheapest I can see is £24.99

Whats the max player count on servers, thought I heard 12 vs 12? I like my huge battles! :(

Tried any HC servers? Makes everything so much better imo, which considering how good the mp is anyway is pretty impressive.

Not currently as far as i know, but will hopefully be something Dice add while they're sorting out the server browser.

just have to give it time to sort it out the browser is a pretty standard problem for the BF series they just cant seem to get it right on a game launch.

the game its self is amazing tho i love the MP played a lil of the single player and i couldnt helped been reminded of COD games. this game will get alot better in a few weeks once all the bugs have been discovered and ironed out imo its well worth sticking with.

Still Enjoying it at the moment, playing my way through SP before I fully concentrate on MP, haven't had any of the bugs people have been talking about yet *touch wood* Mate of mine had problems with the Friends list, but he had the Steam version so he managed to find other people through that, but he couldn't find me as I didn't have the Steam version.

still waiting for my copy to arrive but from what i'm hearing is that the beta was more stable than the retail version.
let's hope they fix the obvious bugs and we'll have a great and working game soon

Server browser is gash, connection to EA online keeps dropping, I have no way of determining a good ping from bad.
Once I find a decent server though it's excellent!
