For anyone wondering about the graphics, some of the options don't get applied till the level restarts, so graphics comparisons are pretty akward currently.

Think I will copy you although my gtx470's are still overclocked

Ill have to whack the gpu's back to 750mhz and see how it go's, theyll do it on stock volts which is handy.

its got hella input lag unlike the alpha.

Yeah I noticed that straight away.

The aiming was really sharp in the alpha, now it's like it is on BC2.

Yep, noticed quite a difference by applying 4xmsaa (screenshot above) compared to a previous round.

Maybe, ive a feeling they'll let us play it for a couple of days tops near the end of this beta.

Performance is much worse than Alpha for me.
Even at 40fps it feels choppy.

Anyone have issues going full screen? ALT + Enter and the option in video settings isn't working.

I'm also getting a freeze and sound loop after every 10-15 mins of play, which means I need to reset my machine.

Had less problems with the Alpha than this FFS!!

Working now, TeamViewer was causing the issue. I quit that and now it's fine, and game runs better when full screen

Yay!

Keep getting disconnected though

setter · 27 Sep 2011 at 20:17

Yep, a new round certainly shows up the difference, i was getting upto 80fps before adding aa and altering a few other settings. Quite happy with the performance still, theese old cards will do me for a while yet, lower the settings a bit for the full game.

Gerard · 27 Sep 2011 at 20:18

Wonder if theres a way to edit the graphics variables in notepad through a .ini or something.

Mythril1976 · 27 Sep 2011 at 20:19

Anyone still waiting for their keys ? I sure am

Last time I pre-order anything...

How is the rig in my sig going to cope?

kablooey · 27 Sep 2011 at 20:24

I thought the point of the Alpha was to find/fix bugs and improve gameplay? I'm getting no end of graphical glitches and lost connections. The Alpha definitely felt better than the Beta, aiming feels horrible by comparison.

Adequately, below 1920x should be able to turn most settings up and get good performance, at 1920x probably have to turn some stuff towards medium.
