Love how clean and sharp this looks. Gameplay is super tight as well great stuff!

Ok so I've fired it up on my 27 inch m27q 1440p display and its running mint now. I'm appreciating just how good it looks too, now that it's running nice and smooth, definitely better than I was expecting it to look. Framerate varied from 100 - 130+ but I found capping it at 100 makes things feel even smoother.

Edit: thats with most settings set to ultra and a few set to high.

kinda dissapointed with how the graphics look, bf1 came out years ago and blows this away, has way more to render and runs way better to lol. Also there seems to be some weird input lag like in mcc, if you play cs go battlefield or any pc fps mouse movement feels exact but in this it just doesnt feel quite 100%, its fun but after 3 hours I was bored lol

Played some tonight on Xbox Series S as was in the living room. Absolutely love it.

I don't know about this game, feels a little too fast paced and graphically looks pretty slim, I miss the guns looking chunky and the gameplay being slower.

Actually enjoying this now, takes a while to get into it but when it clicks, its great fun, i still cant see any reason why its quite hard to run though.

i think it looks really good, even on my low end ring. Looks great on my SX and the movement feels great.

Good to hear, what's spec, settings and approx FPS were you experiencing?

Pc chews it up, runs well no slow down, I didn't have fps counter up but running in ultra, on 3070ti and 11700k no slow downs experienced for me.

I did increase fov to 90 as defaults to 73 which is awful

Headshots are key in this.

Funny you say that as I'm also using the controller and doing better for some strange reason? Is this 'Beta' only free up until release day, or is it now F2P? I'm on PC/Xbox Game Pass Ultimate.

Multiplayer is F2P permanently, however the full game (including campaign and coop) are part of Game Pass. It’s a Microsoft flagship title, would be nuts to not include it on their flagship business model.

Honestly quite surprised it went F2P?

And people thought BF 2042 performed badly lol.

Just played it for a quick blast, seems nice but a bit bland TBH. Runs and looks really good though. Defaulted to High at 3440x1440 but cannot find a way to change res not that it matters since I whacked it to Ultra everything and it still gave me 70fps+ average so I'm happy with that.

Quite surprised actually at how well it ran! All 20 threads were being utilised and CPU package utilisation seemed to be around 38% whilst GPU was 99%.

Uninstalled though because meh.
