Anyone getting it today?  I didn't pre-order it, but I'm definately getting it very soon.  I honestly can't stop playing the demo.  I've probably played it 50 times and I'll do it 50 more times before I buy it.  It's great and I can't wait to see what other things they put into the full version.

Upgrade?  I'm really surprised you can play Doom3 and HL2 and not this.

This game kicks SO much ass.  The bots are very smart, the orders and the entire chain of command system is solid, and the vehicles are awesome.

My favorite so far has been flying the Harrier... vertical take off and then kicking in the after-burners to move... slowing to a hover to land.... it gives me wood.

Is it all modern, or is there still some WWII stuff in it?

All modern.  Modern weapons/vehicles/radar, etc.  Unless they come out with a WWII mod, I think it's going to stay this way.

That's too bad.  I'm sure there'll be a WWII mod anyways.  The mod community for BF1942 was great - I hope this is as good.

Nope.  Desert Combat, a mod for BF1942, had it.  So did Operation Flashpoint.

That game looks pretty sweet.  After I get an upgrade, I'll have to try it.

So far, it's cool.  Only played a few single player fights so far, but I'll play online when I get back home.  I really don't get why I was forced to upgrade.  It's a pretty game, but it's nothing amazing, graphicswise.

Here's a picture of my second landing.  The first one was similar, but it was behind a tree, so you couldn't really see anything.
