Not impressed by those graphics, lets hope the gameplay is good...

Looks pretty low res without and AA/AF.

Hopefully should look better at 1920x1200 with some AA!

Was thinking the textures look pathetic :/

I could be wrong but on the BFBC1 beta on xbox I thought the game looked rubbish. When the game was properly released it looked much better imo.

At least with steam though it wont be everyone fighting over a handful of download links, though I would imagine a little bit of steam location switching will be needed to get full speeds.

I reguarly achieve 50Mb/s with Steam.

I am certain tomorrow will be no different.

**** me if the game is like that even on my rig, they can stick their £24 up their ****

I am not going from a machine that gets 60fps on crysis to that crap! End of. MW has better graphics but is noob without dedis. God damn you console players... it's all your fault.

it says things will be changed in the retail copy so id imagine he engine and gfx will be tweeked and made better remember this is a beta after all

Low res packs for smaller beta download is the most likely explanation.

This would make sense considering that the install file is only 1.5gig.

Yes but surely it is supposed to be a trial. I may not trust it to have decent graphics and wait for screenshots tbh

Trial, Beta, Demo, are all different, your confusing this with a demo.
Correct me if im wrong but this is not a demo.

not really a beta either unless you can give direct feedback which will be listened to.

Same system for feedback as was used in the console beta.

Seeing some poorly compressed screenshots showing unknown quality settings (!) is enough to make several of you suffer something akin to a nervous breakdown.

Sweet Jesus, is all I can say to that.

EDIT: I've tracked down the thread where they were posted. The dude who linked 'em says they ARE the low quality settings.

Guess the wahhhmbulance can stay in the garage for now.

BaDBoY_uK · 28 Jan 2010 at 00:00

I said "if" you texons!
I know it's not a demo because it says BETA! Still with only a month to go how many bugs do you think they'll manage to fix before release. If they gave a *** about the PC version, they'd have run the BETA sooner than 36 or whatever days before. The games are probably already printed. Maybe a future update but still

Anyone on here registered with Combat Testing?

Am i the only one who saw those screenshots and didn't care?

Were they pics from my system? No.

Yep never trust screen shots from publishers as they are touched up never trust screen shots from people as they're generraly **** compared to what they look like on mine.

Creator did say they where low settings though
