I downloaded the beta and found it extremely disapointing. All people do is camp with a lmg or sniper and you cant hit anyone cuz as soon as you shoot ur reticle is above the target. Now I know that since it is a beta it has its problems and glitches. But these are not glitches its the actual gameplay. So within the next few days im goin to cancel my BF3 preorder and put the money towards the MW3 Hardened addition.

I didn't exactly hate it but I didn't like it too much. I downloaded it just to see if I'd like it and if I did I was gonna buy my first Battlefield game and I didn't really like it, I'm not good at it, it's just a little too team dependent.

I didn't hate it, but I didn't enjoy it as much as I thought I would. I guess I had my hopes too high.

Love it!! Definitely day one purchase for me. BF3 or any other BF game is really not meant for the run and gun type player. If you are a lone wolf type, then you should stick to CoD. BF games are about playing a role and helping your team win. For me, I love the BF3 classes, guns, attachments and unlocks. I cannot wait to play the full game!!!

The game just doesn't "feel" it will keep me attached that long... But it's not a bad game, Its obvious that DICE put a a lot into it.

I actually really liked it. Yea the map was a bad one to show off the game but it's going to be a battlefield game through and through. It's an old build of the game so much of it should be ironed out.

I agree, these topics are getting repetitive, there are alot of topics on this already, it's a 50/50 split with love and hate on the game.

Judging entirely by the last sentence you most likely came here to proclaim your passionate love for Call of Duty, and your intense hatred for the devious Battlefield series. The war is pathetic, and as are you. I doubt you even have the beta. Regardless, the problems you stated are entirely community based problems, and as such this entire post is totally pointless. What you actually should have pointed out is that for some bizarre reason they showcased a fairly average map. In shocking conclusion, you're an idiot.

Never said it was a bad thing, just not my kind of game. I can definitely see why people love it though.

I played it for roughly 10 minutes and had to stop as my eyes were beginning to hurt from the graphics. Noticed it was difficult to see enemies and once they were spotted it was difficult to determine if they were friends or foes. Otherwise the random graphical glitches and the lack of visible tracer bullets were the only other complaints I had.

I thought it was very dissapointing. I was hyped for BF3, played the beta, and canceled my pre-order. Thanks for the beta DICE! Saved me 60 bucks. Now go make Mirror's Edge 2.

Got tired of playing Gears of War 3 so I switched to BF3. I can't help it my eyes were straining. Battlefield 3 could look like Frontlines Fuels of War and I would still purchase it. As long as the gameplay brings me back to the nolstagia memories I had of BF2 on the PC I will be content.

The graphics in this BETA are better than that of retail CoD products lol. The final game is going to look like 5x better, as well.

I like it. The new cover stuff and so on gives you a second chance, meaning "The one who shoots first, wins" does not apply. Then theres also surpression, which works surprisingly good, and the realism is just amazing.

I love it.

Enough with the BF:3 Beta bashing. It's a beta and I think a lot of people misunderstand what some betas exist for...if you don't like it then don't buy it when it is released.

Plenty of other people will, you won't hurt DICE's feelings.

This beta is likely testing their servers, and maybe a few technical issues. It is a beta, not a demo. People need to remember the difference between the two. Not all betas that get released are to show off graphics and power. This isn't DICE's first rodeo, they know what they're doing.

I trust DICE for my MP, (although they let me down with Medal of Honor) and I tried the Beta for like 5 minutes but since I didn't had the time to really try things or test stuff and give some feedback I just didn't played it more I'll wait for the final product.

That wizard was killed because it thought the Orc was kind, and was swiflty murdered in a cruel fashion because the wizard was naive and didn't wait til the game came out so that all of the bugs would be fixed in the battlefield 3 BETA because BETAs are expected to have bugs.

I too have my worries of BF3 since the BETA was released, but note that they will not release the game as is...They wouldn't have a BETA this late if they thought they couldn't adjust the game in time.

I realize that betas have many errors however I remember when the Bad Co. 2 beta came out. The beta for it was just as terrible as the real game.

I thought it was pretty good, aside from all the bugs. EA said that the code in the beta is from earlier, so I guess it's not representative of the final game. At least, I hope it isn't.

Has its problems, but I guess that's why it's a beta. Overall I liked it.

Glitches (specially invis one) are annoying. Map is a bit silly, not much destruction on it, very small. Don't really mind the campers (and general trouble makers to put it kindly) since they're probably just a temporary problem, gonna all go back to playing CoD eventually.

Can't wait for the full game

I dl the beta to see what all the hate was about, I actually enjoyed it.
