But kills made as a Recon will only go towards that class, etc.
I've rushed a site at the beginning of the game with c4 but they shot the vehicle so it said i suicided and lost 10 points yet during killcam it showed me getting 300 ptz for destroying the site. But when I respawned and pressed tab, it showed me still with 0 points (since you cant go negative).
Other examples include anti-tank mines. If you plant them and an enemy tank runs it over while you are in the blast radius and you die from it. It will say you suicided and also show the points fir destoying the tank. But in tab it shows a deduction of 10 points.
And i doubt those "missed" points were added to my rank points. Cause at the end of the game it adds the award and combat scores. This actuall proves those points werent added.
So apparently points earned when you are dead, by suicide at least, are not credited to you.
And both server browsers show ping, its the last column on the right. Posted via RS Mobile |

the server refresh is another nuisance. it always loads at the FULL server list without filters no matter what and it takes FOREVER. it should remember the last selection without refreshing or even the favorites or history tab so it doesnt take 5 mins everytime you have to go back. damn anoying.

Ok, I am a bit annoyed at the moment because whenever I am in the Heli or UAV and I get really close to the hills (on the right side for the attackers) and there is an explosion or something that causes my screen to go super bright white, basically all colours are turn to white cause of the explosion. I get this error and my game crashes and closes itself. Anyone know what's wrong? Happened twice in 2 hours so far.  | |

And to answer the other question, you'd have to give them access to the whole steam account. I'm not sure how the EA account works too because your ingame profile is linked to that which could be linked to a cdkey? |
only reason I haven't pre ordered yet is i'm not too sure how well it will run on my computer, but if I can get access to this beta it'd be a giant help.
specs:
intel pentium D 3ghz dual core
3gb ram
512mb 9600 gso
win7 x64
can anyone verify if this method still works?

^ Ask Geby. He ordered it then canceled it but he should have gotten the beta key already. In that case all he needs is to install the game from else where (ie. that torrent) and then input the beta key. Your CC does not get charged till the game is out (apparently). So I see nothing that is stopping this method from working.

Ive canceled and its still working. The steam beta doesnt work but just download from EA servers or torrents. The EA account will still be active not ur steam account. Ive heard that since you preordered that account will be active for the FULL game as well. just rumuors though, Iam still buying for ps3 now

If that's the case, I guess i'll pre-order it right now.
What's the process for cancelling it? Was it straightforward and hassle free?

Do you just tell them in the email that you want to cancel it?
They charged my CC on the 29th for $54.57 CAD.

Looked into it a bit more for the refund. Quote:
QUESTION
I bought a game with my credit card through Steam and either don't like it or don't want it anymore. Can I get a refund?
ANSWER
As with most software products, we will not offer refunds for purchases made online as outlined in the software license - please review Section 4 of the Steam Subscriber Agreement for more information.
We can make an exception for pre-ordered games if the request is received prior to the release date. | more info and source here: http://forums.startrekonline.com/showthread.php?t=75249
So I guess before March 2nd 2010 , you will be able to cancel the preorder.
For the people that have bought it, why are you going for the refund? Is the game not what you were looking for or..?
