How are people playing? Have pre orders on origin meant that people can play through that or have that "aqquired it". The reason I ask is that i pre ordered from an internet site and a bit annoyed if origin players have gotten it early.

read the thread maybe ?

well, check few pages back, if you have preloaded on origin you can set up a proxy server and activate the game, then play!

don't you mean how it was always going to be ?

Thats what happens when you beta test software, you play a game that isn't finished yet.

I would have thought from the alpha feedback they would have incorporated such a simple feature into the beta considering how many changes they made from the alpha to beta, and the fact its been in almost every single BF game to date. But it's in the final game, thats what I'm happy about

. Really pleased with how well polished this game is.

Getting an awful lot of crash to desktops on this game so far :/

edit: I will also say that from the half an hour or so with the game the following:

- An Xbox360 controller is essential for me to control the tanks and planes
- The graphics have gone up a notch
- The problems I had with mapping my all razor mamba mouse buttons have gone and its all supported
- Raw mouse input is on by default so most will need to turn down their sensitivity
- Playing at 75hz over 60hz and dropping down a resolution notch gives a nice smoothness boost.

Christ the servers I keep joining are laggy as hell.

Muzza1875 · 24 Oct 2011 at 21:19

So bloody good, really impressed by it so far.Well done DICE!

If I order from origin right now, will I be able to play the beta until release? I don't really fancy using a Korean VPN and I'm sure the beta will keep me occupied. I did read through some pages but there's a lot of various discussions

Besty · 24 Oct 2011 at 21:20

I am running it with 4GB RAM and performance is fine. I think the graphics look great and my rig (Quad 9550, 5850 Stock) is running it nice and smoothly.
