anyone playing the beta? I like it, some problems with the beta and the screen shots they have been showing us are definitely no where near the gameplay of the consoles.. overal I think its a cool game. I never got into battlefield, I definitely want to, I like how its more team based and not run and gun..
 
Almost everything they have shown is from the PC version. I downloaded it from origins this morning and cant wait to go home and try it out. Consoles are just getting old and cant even compare.

This is why I built a new PC http://youtu.be/CVWt-Q_-TlQ

yea i know it was all pc but i thought it would look a little better. its not even running HD, its running under 720p and around 30fps.. my pc can handle a lot of games and runs this beta on ultra and it looks great but im not a pc gamer, and all my friends are on xbox so thats where I will be playing it. I still think it looks great though either way and its a nice change from cod.
 
If you don't mind me asking what are the specs of your PC? I wouldn't mind playin a few games with some members from here if anyone is interested?
 
I've been playing it since it was available on the PS3. I had Bad Company 1 & 2 and liked them a lot. I also had Medal of Honor and liked it too. I'll be buying Battlefield 3 for sure.
 
the PC version is glitchy as shit, not to mention they already hacked the code. so theres alot of hackers on it already!! I guess ill wait for the final deal.. there suppoe to realse the other map this week!!
 
Was hugely disappointed in the 360 version beta, sure it would look better on PC but not really ready for PC gaming at this time. I'm not even sure this is prettier than MW2, it might be actually worse in some ways (kinda reminds me of that $10 first person shooter they sometimes push on xbox live, can't remember the name right now)

Also I felt no sense of tactical strategy or anything, though with all the noobs running around on a beta that might be somewhat expected.. But really I found nothing here that hasn't been done a thousand times before, which sucks cuz this was the game I was most looking forward to this year.
 
The leap to PC is astonishing compared to current consoles. Consider this whats the 360 running on a 7900gts that's old as shit. To soften the blow the 360 gamepad works on most games so essentially it feels the same but looks quite a bit more next gen.

I wanna play some vehicle maps already. You are correct the beta map is more of the same just allot bigger but wait until the 64 player maps this is where battlefile will shine.
 
one of my good friends works at gamestop as a regional manager or someone higher up, he said at a conference he played the final build of battlefield 3 and a map that was not in the beta. He said that it looks a lot better in its final build then it does on the beta. also the beta map isnt even the map completed. So I am happy to hear this. Also someone posted a link somewhere that there will be dlc for high definition content for battlefield on the consoles. I never heard of this, and not sure how it will work, but im curious (I dont mean additional gameplay)
 
The original total mod DESERT COMBAT for Battlefield 1942 still remains THE best BF mod out there IMHO.
 
I am pretty sure the graphical glitches and framerate issues will be sorted out in the final release version. The beta version is probably loaded down with debug code. You can bet soon after the release of BF3 (and MW3) there will be driver updates for nVidia and ATI cards that are optimised for these games.

I played the heck out of Battlefield 2 with my buddies. Dice were not bad with patching that to balance the game and get rid of bugs and cheats, but they could have done better, there were still plenty of cheaters. They ended up banning a whole stack of game keys. Hope they can stay on top of the hackers this time around.

Finally started to play online. noticed one BIG issue. You NEED people to play with who you can talk to. Anyone on xbox playing this? I have a few friends but its tough getting together. Xbox gamertag - TheStreetzKing
