ok, this is one of the worst betas ive ever played, even the BFBC2 wasnt nearly as bad as this, im literrally clipping through entire sections of the map, im walking around and all of a sudden its like im trapped in quick sand, and i start sinking until im 100 feet under everyone else, and STILL able to shoot and kill people while stuck underground, and have to suicide just to get out. the game is less than a month away, and this does not boad well for us pc gamers, as im sure the console versions are way less buggy than this. i really hope they patch this beta so that i can actually play properly, and maybe give them some proper feedback.

Anyone else severely disappointed by this beta? It feels like Medal of Honor. I don't think I'm buying this game...

Wow, I'm done after 15minutes lol. Very bad lag even on xbox 360. Every game I join is full of mexicans. You cannot mute said mexicans. Graphics are very poor atm. BF1.5.

Its a beta after all. Then again I guess it seems people think its worse than alot of other betas.

I doubt my rig can even run it above 30 fps.. only have a GTS 250. I have a feeling BF3 will eat my GPU alive.

I have yet to play it but just from seeing streams it seems that xbox/ps3 is waaaaaay more stable than the computer version. I am downloading it on my xbox since my computer's graphics card got fried but would love to play it on the computer

This excuse of "it's a beta" is pretty funny.
The game is supposed to be released in less than a month and it still has serious "core" flaws. At this point it should only be about balancing and a couple bugs here and there.
And Origin is garbage too. Seriously disappointed in EA so far.

Been playing the PC version all morning, no crashes, perfectly stable. Occasional bugs like floor glitching, but otherwise pretty smooth.

Graphics are AMAZING I will say though, at high resolution and 120 hrtz it looks beautiful, gameplay pretty fun, similar to battlefield BC 2 with some shiney new effects and much better graphics.

Game's really fun in my opinion. Really enjoying it so far

^ but yes as the previous poster said, origin is a piece of shit, it's like a mentally handicapped version of steam.

Man, this is the buggiest game I have played in the last 3 years, even for an early beta is pretty buggy.

-Bad optimization.
-I keep falling through the ground.
-Screen keeps flashing for no reason.
-Character models sometimes disappear.
-Sound sometimes repeats.

And there's probably more I can't think of right now. I don't really know what to think of this game anymore.

this game is pretty buggy but that's easiest to fix so I believe that this will be alot smoother when game comes out. On the other hand gameplay seems pretty nice which is the most important thing for me so yea, I'll probably buy it

If you give them your Personalausweisnummer (german ID), yes. Otherwise you have to wait until 23 pm.
Fucking unbelievable. I'm sure they wouldn't even have to do that.

Its pretty hilarious to tunnel everything through FACEBOOK! WTF!
Worst is the ID verification they use doesnt work with the new IDs haha...who did have the nice idea to have a set time for the start of open beta anyway? They didnt think of the possibility of the servers beeing flooded to death? It feels soooo bad

Oh oh EA - Thats why we all love and praise Blizzard!

i would just say that the more high end your system is, the less flaws bugs and glitches (as far as i can tell, reading everyone specs and the difficulties that they meet while playing).
as i already posted, on my medium end system (amd x4 955 - ati 5870 - 4gb ram) the game runs smooth, much smoother than what i imagined.
sure is that they are not giving a good feeling at all to the majority of the community, seeing how many complains are happening. and, as said, we are just a month from the actual release. even if this is an old build of the beta, it's rather embarassing that they are showing such a thing - once again, i'm talking about all the people that had problems with running the game. apart from 2-3 annoying bugs (i can't swap my right-left clicks, having to shoot and to aim with the opposite fingers i'm used to because of the basic left-hand mouse settings -_-) game runs quite well for me.

Question: Does anyone ADS at point blank/close range? Especially with the ACOG I can't move my reticule precise enough to hit something moving...but hipfiring is such a gamble, especially against supports.
