BattleField 3

I think the lense flare on snipers is a little too bright, it doesn't look very realistic and looks more like they have a flashlight or something. It is especially annoying underground as it makes the sniper look like he has a searchlight strapped to his forehead.
 
I have found that the flare has a slight advantage of obscuring the target. Several times ive spotted a sniper and had a hard time making out their body to fire at.

Also it's better than a tactical insertion, because your entire squad has access to it and it stays until a new one is dropped.
 
So I thought I would just put that list in a spoiler a lot of these things you can get in the beta so I'm guessing this list doesnt have the things you can get in the retail release.

We seem to be the only ones that like this game anyway there will be an update happening that will have these fixes and perhaps more

* 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.
* Fixed a bug where shooting at a moving enemy could cause more than the intended amount of damage.
* Crosshairs for shotguns have been replaced with a new, thinner, art.
* A subtle low health screen effect has been added.
* Tweaked scores of Medals and Service Stars.
* Tweaked the Rank progression.
* Pushing prone on console will not play the animation twice.
* Fixed loss of Squad Leader after EOR at some times.
* Framerate stability fixes.
* The 3D spotting icons has been tweaked to better match the target’s visibility. Icons will show frequently less on mostly obscured targets.
* Fixed issue with crosshair disappearing after round transition.
* Fixed issue with crosshair disappearing after trying to deploy while the countdown timer still active.
* Squad list now shows specializations chosen, VOIP activity and dead squad mates.
* Non working options in squad menu fixed: "Private" flag and "Switch Teams".
 
Games goods, same some obvious issues but i've noticed vast improvements since the start of the beta. Prone no longer fucks up your interaction with the map and falling through the map is much more rare. I think really they just need to improve the map interaction, tweek flashlights, shine, and a few minor things and it's solid. Missing options menus and etc...will likely be fully realized in the final version so im not sweating that.
