BC2 BETA... Your thoughts and SCREENSHOTS of it

This patch delay is a joke, i mean how good is this looking for a game thats in stores in just over 2 weeks? They ****** up big time not having this beta in december.

Agreed, 2 weeks left until retail and they can't even release a stable client update. In the state the game is at the moment it needs quite a few fixes as well. It's going to take a major push if they are going to have this game anything like when it hits retail.

PC beta should have been released earlier as you say. A good month earlier at the very least.
 
You would think that dice would have ppl sunbscriping to those cheat sites to get the hacks then checking the programming and fix what allows these hacks to work. But more than likely they will say its punkbusters problem and they should be the 1s who need to fix it.
 
I hate joining fail teams on defense, feel like I'm the only one who actively defuses ... Very discouraging too see an entire team run pass a M-Com thats been armed aswell :(
 
So we are getting all worked up over this patch and it most likely has NOTHING of serious use? I'd at least hope the patch has an FOV slider so I can atleast play the game

We don't know whats in the patch, all we know is the patch that was to be released today is around 24mb in size. Thats it.
 
Does anybody else get faced with this crap occasionally? :confused:

Black screen apart from the little icons above peoples heads. Happens all the time if I try and run DX11, which I should be able to do.

Best settings I can do without this happening regularly is DX10 on meduim settings with bloom turned off.

Anyway, when it works I can pwn every now and then :D

Yeah Black screen happened to me tonight while I was driving tank ... only cleared after I jumped out .... (running DirX10)
 
Two weeks before release and they're still getting CTDs? Ouch.

Theyre covering themselves with the following:

Don't forget, the retail version is on a different branch to the Beta. The retail version has performance tweaks in it, the Beta didn't have those.

What this Beta gives us is feedback on where these CTD's might be originating and allows us to make fixes that can be possibly passed across to the retail branch.

Though i don't really see that as cover as the above implies the retail version at the moment is geting ctd as well. :eek:
 
I guess the game will get released then there will be a update for it the same day, i wouldn't be surprised if the first few weeks the game will be poor to start with.

I'm being left with a real sour taste in my mouth, first it was 'play the beta and then tell us the FOV is bad (and surprise surprise, it was terrible). They now cant churn out a simple optimization patch on time, and for all of the gameplay tweaks (very much required), wait till the game has launched? I DONT THINK SO DICE. Cancelled my pre order, game isn't particularly good (and WHY ON EARTH they gave the PC community a Gold Rush map ill never know) will reserve judgement until I've had a few play sessions on conquest (the only mode I will be playing)
