Fair enough, but why does it run at 25-35 fps?

i7 930 @ 3.8ghz
6gb Corsair Ultra DDR3
GTX 560Ti
Windows 7 64bit

Obviously not the strongest gaming rig around, but surely I should be hitting around the 60fps mark

If it's the 1024Mb version of the 560Ti you've got, that won't be helping as the game on ultra settings uses around 1.3Gb of VRAM.

I am still falling through the ground even though hasn't this bug been fixed already? :confused:

It is strange that in a battlefield game i find it much better when inside the Metro level as opposed to the outside bits. Maybe it is just the first set of M-com stations though, i don't think that part of the level is very good at all tbh.

Well they disabled ground deformation to sort it didn't they? Roll on the 28th.....

Yeha the server update was meant to disable terrain deformation and they thought that would stop people falling through maps, obviously not though.

i keep walking into the ground

So someone tell me, is the flashing colours a known bug for nvidia cards? Because it's driving me up the wall.
I'm sure it's not my overclock, works fine for every other game.

I think even on high, (which im running, 2x msaa) it looks much better than bc2.

Bc2 looks a little washed out to me.

funny because bc3 looks washed out to me

tried again, even without glitches it just isnt crisp enough, i was expecting see through into the image clarity but it has the low contrast faded look sometimes like crysis 2. underground is better but im hoping for some image presets to choose from to make it more vivid

overall not a bad beta, just not how i had expected no team play and a bit samey.

It's known for everyone, even on the consoles apparently.

It is very annoying when I am closing in on the mcom to plant charge, I fall right through the ground and then the movement messes up.

Thanks, at least it's not just me then. Hopefully it'll be sorted come release.

Same here. I think if you become a fan of it you can still join platoon games, I think..

SuperTronNarwhal · 3 Oct 2011 at 22:39

someone should make Ocuk 2 platoon ;p

Put some time into the beta and now ranked 8, I'm playing at 1920x1080 with Ultra settings and it runs nice and smooth on my rig (sig) but graphicly doesn't seem any better than BC2 but then I haven't seen the Caspian map!

My single biggest problem with this game is I can't bind my MX518 mouse settings and I always use the same mouse settings on al FPS games so it's killing the game for me as I can't get the hang of using mapped keys instead of my normal mouse buttons

Also why can't people enjoy both Battlefield and Call of Duty Games, is there some unwritten rule saying you can only like one or the other? personally I like both and Looking forward to both MW3 & BF3

God damn flash lights!!!!

Did someone ask about the server filter? ..earlier sometime...

...anyway, just noticed this 'handy hint' on Battlelog.

"Hint: Did you know you can customize your Quick match experience?
Configure a Server filter in the Server Browser, and that filter will be used when using Quick match. Next hint"

It's awesome once you get your own. Bursting into a room with a handgun like the 5-0 blowing the living **** out of people while you blind them = win.
