It's a beta. I bet the audio files aren't even in it.

not a fan of the moh style hud/artwork. Seems a bit too stiff and serious for a battlefield game. Hate the post game stats report with the scratching thud for each award. I hope they change that and make it a little happier sounding, like change rolling in the bank instead of thud in your face ribbon, if that makes sense

Mailman can eat his little heart out at this. Though he will probably try to troll it and say its not happening.

The amounts of people flocking to our Open Beta is fantastic! We are happy to see so many players enjoy this Open Beta, and giving us their valuable feedback on the experience on the Battlelog forums.

This blog post is the first in a series of posts that will outline some of the changes we are making in the final game thanks to your feedback and participation in the Open Beta.

Come back regularly and stay tuned to the Battlelog forums and the News section in Battlelog for daily news and updates from DICE on how your playing the Open Beta is helping us make the final game better.

A SELECTION OF CHANGES FROM OPEN BETA TO FINAL, PART 1

* Fixed occasional client crash when reviving.
* Fixed killcam showing glitched area under map if your killer is dead.
* Issue with spawning on dead squad mates fixed.

* Crosshairs for shotguns have been replaced with a new, thinner, art.
* A subtle low health screen effect has been added.

Played the beta earlier. Game is great. Some people need to grow a pair and stop complaining.
