[QUOTE="Truth_Hurts_U"][QUOTE="millerlight89"] Yea you can unlock I think everything, but none of it transfers :P

If your server time runs out in the middle or end of a game and it kicks you... You get nothing for your effort. :(

So this is happening to everyone.....you actually have a limited time to play on the servers until it kicks you......wtf :? I'm not sure I can think of a good reason for that to happen :P

They don't have enough servers for everyone. The servers with ques have 30-80 people waiting to play. It's crazy. More servers keep getting added but they fill up like instantly.

Ahh....now that makes sense. I was pondering that idea, but I didn't think they would supply an insufficient amount of servers.....I was wrong. They better get a crap ton up when the beta opens or it is going to be a huge mess ha.

Watch Nvidia and AMD gimp the drivers on us and make us get new video cards lol. J/K. It does pay to have good frames in this game. Alot of action happens and you don't wanna be runing low frames when that happens. I seen alot of people like stand there for a sec and I pop them. Guess they can't keep up with the game. My first life I killed 7 people in like 25 seconds. It was nuts they are like looking at me and all while I plowed them in.

I would never put it past Nvidia to do that, but not AMD. They have enough issues with their drivers without intentionally gimping them. :P

Mobile spawnpoints can be pretty funny at times, one was set in a hall by someone on my team. I spawned there, immediately had 5 guys in my face, mowed em all down.

Does this make good use of the graphics card or is it very CPU intensive? Anyway, with your details hopefully I will get around 30 - 40fps on some good settings.

Hitting a pretty consistent 70fps on ultra with 6950 crossfire. I'm annoyed I can't play using my 360 pad though. Thought it was supported.

ok, played a couple games. some impressions/performance.

80-120 fps at all times, ultra everything. 1680x1050.

thats on a 2600k/8GB/560ti SLI pc.

graphics are really good. animations are the best ever. ever.

played in an EU server, cuz all the US ones were full......so I pinged a solid 133-200. yet it seemed low latency somehow. like 33ish. like dude is running sideways and the hitbox is right on his head somehow (hitscan maybe?)

some shots, some double kill headshot stuff.

and LOLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL

1920x1080. I play on my tv. It jumps up to 120 but it most of the time stays locked at 70 while running and shooting.

Picking ultra has MSAA below. So looks like neither.

Yep and that's all that matters, I hate when people give useless FPS numbers then when it matters it's actually less.

Maybe it looks better in motion. Not impressed by the screens so far. Crysis 2 looks this good in screens if not better, was expecting a jump up.

Yeah I was expected more. Maybe the full game will look better. Based on the screens this looks nothing like the trailers. But again screens sometimes lie.

Of course it's not impressive because it's not really open landscapes with thousands of trees and mountains.

Bloom? It looks better in motion than the compressed images I posted. I'm thinking that DICE made similar builds for all platforms, in the maps they all share. Operation Metro on Rush is the same map that is on consoles, just 8 people less. Perhaps we have to wait for PC-exclusive map builds? Conquest on something?

If you bought Medal of Honor Limited Edition New, yea.

Are you supposed to register somehow to get the email? I have MoH but after looking through it there is no beta key and I'm assuming they were supposed to send you one via email but I dunno if I've ever registered. Where would you do that at?

Its in your email. I jsut got mine.

Thats fine and everything, but the SP looking good does nothing for me. As I will be playing the MP exclusively. Regardless of how the game looks it will still play just fine. I was just expecting more than what I've seen so far. But again maybe the retail version will look better.

Normally the single player always look better regardless, already have it preordered so I can see what it's like before I do MP, though with BC2 I started with MP until I did single player months later.XD

well I believe they said that not all graphics options will be available in the beta. Also, I'm sure it will be a bit more impressive on some bigger maps.

Wow, i actually got a beta code. Awesome.

My laptop specs:

Intel Core i3-2310M CPU @ 2.1GHz.

4gb ram

HD3000 graphics

Windows 7

Its going to be interesting to see how it runs, if it runs at all.

In no way that I can find. Its not under control options and doesn't just work like Crysis. Annoying.

I'm guessing that as well. I haven't seen anyone show their settings page using AAO for their ambient occlusion, even on ultra it is just the HBAO from bc2.

With the PC version of Bad Company 2, the beta looked significantly worse than the full version. They compressed some things and removed others to reduce the download size.
