Well I would, except I just sold my 360

Sounds like we need to meet in the middle and get it for pc!

Trust me...nobody wants to play this game on MY PC LOL. Lowest setting and 10 frames per second....if I'm lucky. Ah well. We have the same problem, but different platforms

Beta is supposed to get you excited for a game right? Well it officially killed my desire to ever play this game online. I tried to play the beta yesterday and could barely walk two steps before I just fell over dead. No noise or any indication that I was being shot. Just dead.

Now you people can call me a bad player or whatever but it just isn't fun. I'd rather play Call of Duty's multiplayer flaws and all. I guess it's just a matter of taste and Battlefield's beta left a bad one in my mouth.

You were experiencing a glitch in the code I believe. Either that or latency. I've had that happen too. You're minding your own business and the next thing you know, you're doing a faceplant. A lot of people have experienced this and it's certainly not suppose to happen..unless you get sniped anyways.

I believe Dice is addressing this, but we won't know for sure until it launches. I know it's not the high bullet damage because I've been shot a bunch of times and survived only to get the dreaded "insta-kill" from a PP2000. I'm concerned about it myself, but hopefully, there's something that can be done to fix it for launch.

 

[snappahead]

I'm also aware of a glitch in the beta where players take more damage when they're moving. Yeah. Well, that's not suppose to happen either and it was a rampant enough problem that I'm sure Dice heard about it constantly. I gotta have faith these huge issues will be addressed quickly. Those are game breaking, so I'm sure it's top priority for them.

That's possible, I've killed people when they were moving with one shot. It was a sniper rifle, but I didn't hit them in the head.

Yeah, it was an overall damage glitch so it wouldn't have mattered which weapon you used. Figures. A bug that further rewards those jackholes who lay prone in a bush all game.

Did you just call me a jackhole?!?!?!

But according to the Beta Updates on EA/Dice's blog all the issues are being fixed.

I'd really like them to address not being able to play with your friends/squad, and their reason for it. It is impossible to be all in one squad, when it should put you straight in as one.

Yea, I'm sure that they will. That was the worst part of the beta for me, not being able to squad up with my friends.

At least you've got friends who play this The squad problems will be gone at launch, I'm sure. They also never released a list of all the fixes theyd made before the beta even launched. They said that because of how old the build was by the time it launched, a lot of stuff had been fixed, but didn't go into detail.

Most of my "friends" are people I met on Xbox Live

Yeah, the beta was definitely an old build. I can't wait to play the entire game.

I dont even have Live "friends" that play this. I do actually have a couple but we're never on at the same time. It seems like you need a huge group of people if you want to be able to play with "friends" on any kind of regular basis. I usually don't mind too much for other games, but it's almost a must in Battlefield. Playing with randoms can be maddening.

Oh yeah. I hate getting squaded up with some guy who does nothing but sit in the very back and spot people. You have to spawn on his ass every time too.

Is this over in the UK, i can't access it, i thought it'd be over at midnight

 

[ZaCHw117]

last day was yesterday (sunday) in the US.

Gotta love the "spotters" Such team players. Ive noticed that nubs love to be the long range spotting recon. I dont know what it is about recon, but the nubs find that class irresistible. Maybe they feel safer or something. It sure beats putting yourself at risk jus to help the team win, that's for sure.

It wouldn't be so bad if the match making was better. It always seems like you're on the rookie team of scrubs who don't know or care about winning and you're playing against the Battlefield all-stars who know every trick on how to win and are willing to do whatever it takes to do so. Once in a while I'm on that good team and while it's nice to win for a change, the blow outs arent all that fun no matter which team you're on.

I'll keep posting my gamertag and if anybody on here wants to play to have fun AND to try and win, please add me.

Same here, I'm always getting placed on the team that is doing horrible. I love recon though, I use that class the most. But I'm more of an aggressive sniper. It's not unusual for me to whip out my pistol and go arm an M-COM station. Even no-scope some fools on my way towards it.

There is no greater feeling then using a good ol' AR and doing work though.

 

[Uncanny Web-Slinger]

Played BC2 and BF3 looks like it was made by a different dev.

The guns the sheer size difference really makes it not look right. I'll get used to the difference but man are the new guns tiny

 

[ZaCHw117]

What does everybody mean by "tiny" I can't really follow the concept.
