Spawnsy, I think it was mentioned several pages back that Ubi state they don't support SLI for Beta's hence the poor performance you saw. I hope they fix it for you on the Release version.

Really looking forwards to this now, either waiting for a sub £50 for the gold edition again or a code from MM when they start appearing.

I sink about 26hours into this beta to complete everything, buy both legendary weapons and kit to Max my character out for what I was trying to achieve. I ended up:

Firearms - 4450
Health - 7100
Special - 1100

I could play for hours with the weapon attachments to work out what is best (for me or the situation) , it's surprisingly in depth.

Roll on release! :D

7K is a lot for health. I just bought yellow and purple stuff and didn't pay attention to how it affects firearms, health and skill. What's the trick to that?

I have to admit I started to get a bit bored towards the end of the beta, I had the same with borderlands after a while, and to some extent Fallout. It just becomes a kind of loot fruit machine after a while, and you just stop caring about the environment or story.

Then there's the trolling. A combination of a squad following you everywhere attempting to get you to go rogue, and abuse of the in game voip. There was a bizarre standoff between Nexus and some annoying little troll last night, it was like some Soundboard DJ fight to the death.

I think the key to this game is main story thread and playing co-op with your mates. I suspect the attraction of the PvP will be limited in the long run.

I recorded that, unfortunately if I upload the video I will get another warning and ban.

Nice i got 5.6k firearms and 5.1k health with 960 special
 
I ended up with more blue items of protection (apart from weapons and attachments, everything was purple/pink apart from the 2 legendary weapons) as they gave me a better stamina stat. In the closed Beta I just tried to make my firearms do as much damage as possible (something like 17k on a crit hit in the last beta with a rifle) and the lack of health was really noticeable compared to this time. It saved me a few times when people try and take you down for no reason or when going against rogues, I think I only died 4 times in the open beta and I killed no end of rogues! I'll definitely be setting my character up the same way in the full game on release. My special skills were poor though, healing only bought me up half a bar so you had to wait for that to refill to a full bar again.

hahaha, that was epic last night :D Mynight's soundboard = best software EVER :D

Loved it when we had a group just standing applauding the combine harvester song and then one chucks a grenade and they went rogue :D


But yeah overall, I personally don't think the final game is going to be any different to how the beta played, there will be more missions, more loot + gear choice, crafting etc. but the core of the game and how it plays will still be the exact same as the beta.

Aside from getting good loot gear in the dark zone, I am not really that bothered on it tbh. Unfortunately, I can't see the single player being anything special either though....

Originally I thought I would easily get a **** load of time put into this game but realistically..... unless there is something that keeps me coming back to the game other than getting better gear, I can't see myself getting anywhere near the same amount of time that I have in BF 4.

When the rogue stuff happens, it is fun but unless you have got a good position, it is very hard to defend yourself as you just have everyone after you from all corners.
 
I enjoyed running around the DZ, how the hell do you get out though!? The menus are a bit mind boggling but only had a couple of hours with it. I'm not preordering though, will wait to see how anti cheat pans out as it will ruin the best part of the game if its no good

I must have been very lucky, or there were less of them this time but I didn't see one cheater in the open Beta.
 
Well I went and pre ordered the GOLD package last night as I enjoyed everything about the Beta , The story mode , changing to hard was a challenge , doing DZ with other people was awesome , its got my attention , I think its going to be big ! I can't wait until march the 8th . its running at a constant 50 - 60 fps on ultra at 1440p for me with everything on max ! :)
