I'm wondering what the server situation is like for the game here in Korea.

It's selling pretty cheaply (36K won) online and seems to be in Englishy.

I played the demo on the xbox360 and couldnt put it down. I pre-ordered it and got it the wednesday. It's pretty slick!! Dunno if its similar to the PC, but no online issues for me.

Is there a single player skirmish style mode? Like what you could do in BF2 and 1942? Or is it just a campaign?

just a campaign for single player which ive kinda skipped and just jumped into the multi

just been getting my ass kicked in a 32 multiplayer ...i guess that always happens to game noobs. amazing gameplay especially with the vehicles elements and the fact all buildings and even terrain can be destroyed. really a stand out next gen game for me.

Shoot! This is the first game I've played that kills my old 8800GS. I can only get a 30FPS at 1024x768 and low settings. I love the Battlefield series so much and like clockwork, they always make me upgrade my computer.

Now...

To buy an Xbox or upgrade my graphics card capable of playing this game? They're about the same price!

Wait until late March/early April when Nvidia finally release their new range.......ATI 5800 cards will probably drop by 30%.......that's if the new Nvidia cards are competitive.....rumors are they aren't.

My HD5850 plays BFBC2 pretty well maxxed out.

Hell, I'd assume it runs great on a 4850. They can be had for like 10만 these days? A lot cheaper than an Xbox and without the associated aches and pains
