Over 1GB of Vram usage is worrying me as I only have 1GB 5850

Drop the AA and you'l be down to less than a gig I imagine.

Is that because you would like to come and test out my spec for me mate? Will PM you in trust

Thanks mate, I was afraid of that, I've now ordered 4 GTX 580s, I hope to be able to run this in medium at 1280 by 1024.

Something like that

I find it very odd people will go out and spend £100's on a PC to play BF3. But they will not buy a gaming mouse where you can download software for it to bind any action to any of the keys??? Held in or not held in all through the software.

Then moan they can't toggle this or that, crazyness. I would never use a normal mouse again, all the extra buttons are a god send to bind keys to for any game.

LOL

Looks soooo good

Seems to be some sort of glitch where the queue stops going down at 49th place... pita when I've been waiting for nearly an hour

Binding via software mostly require key binds.

Games should support generic mouse buttons natively - Left/Right/Middle/Thumb.

Shame on those who expect such a thing. :rolleyes:

But that is just it m8, this is not an ideal world, spend a bit of extra cash and never have the problem again. :rolleyes:

It does feel more sluggish compared to BC2, I presume that's down to the more demanding game engine?

Please tell me I'm being stupid and there is a toggle crouch button option I'm missing.

You are being stupid.

Looks through your control options you have both toggled and non toggled.

Is this an overnight occurance? As i didn't encounter problems before i went to bed at 10pm.

It was definitely doing that last night, I played until about 11pm.

GothicGhost · 28 Sep 2011 at 16:07

Caspian border really nice map and is pretty big.

First time on the map with a new game getting started and I spawn in a jet

Then I got shot down 30 seconds later

lol
Loading video on utube but the jet part video half missing

Pate · 28 Sep 2011 at 16:08

So how's it running folks? CPU, GPU or both demanding game? Just looking to hear feedback for 1920x1080 @ high.

Strife212 · 28 Sep 2011 at 16:09

Getting lower FPS on 64 Caspian than on Metro.

45 fps min. 1920x1200 Ultra.

GothicGhost · 28 Sep 2011 at 16:12

I run at 1920x1080.

With 5870 + amd 955 + 4 gb ddr 3 ram 1600mhz.

With high settings I get around 60-80 outside and inside over 100 easy

Great! I've got i5 750, 4GB DDR3 1600Mhz RAM and Crossfire 5850s so I might get away with some Ultra options

Is the open beta being released at midnight tonight?

nitram100 · 28 Sep 2011 at 16:19

I will be happy if my spec runs it at medium to high at a fairly constant 50-60fps. I only game at 1440x900 so fingers crossed

GothicGhost · 28 Sep 2011 at 16:20

I don't think I have AA on though but for the beta I don't really mind

Not sure when they open beta to everyone but I am pretty sure it will be a cluster **** lol
