The game definitely puts new players through a grinder. Why they wanted to court casuals at all when the game basically demands that only the hardcore need apply is beyond me.
[QUOTE="RocketDwarf"]I think you are misunderstanding the word "beta" A beta IS unfinished, that's sorta the point, to get feedback on features and bugs so that they can fix them. Dying without kills is sorta on you, this game has a very steep learning curve and is not designed to be random enough that you will always get a kill at some point, like CoD. I have not experienced blindness from PPCs, or any of the other things you have described. Have you considered that you are being effected by a bug? If you want to play MW4, PLAY MW4, don't say that this game is worse because it's somewhat different. From what I've heard from other people I have played with, MW4 games devolved into gauss sniper matches where teams sat behind ridges and took pot shots at each other until one team dropped, I wouldn't call that better than MWO. I think you're misunderstanding the word "beta" as it is currently used. They're accepting money for the thing, all you need to do to participate is to click a button and make an account, and bam, you now have the option to be a paying customer. The old "beta" defense rings so, so, so hollow. Stop using it. It's noise. What this is is actually the "marketing" phase. Having said that, I am finding the game to be pretty good. My only real objection to it is that it is VERY hard to break into. A full featured, lengthy tutorial and a noob match mode is critical if they want this thing to take off.
