Big negatives

Cpu code poorly optimised 90% for 3930K 4.6Ghz with lag and random crashes
gpu's at 40%-50% (cross fire) 7950's.

Must be a problem with the game, I get no where near that usage on an i7 990X from stock, 4.0ghz or 4.4ghz. What resolution are you playing at? I'm at 2560 x 1600 which will admittedly put more work on gpu's than 1080p res would.
 
Hmmmm just loaded up the open beta for the first time and its a slideshow....checked the settings they have defaulted to medium ect but its like 0-5fps lol something must be wrong there.
 
Okay installed the new drivers n restarted, getting 40-60 fps on medium/high at 1080p on a 5870 overclocked and 20-30 fps on ultra. I thought it would be much lower than that to be honest im very surprised with that lol.
 
13.10 beta 2 here on an i5-3570k @ 4.2GHz and 7950 @ 1150/1550 @ 1080p, with the automatic quality settings.

Getting ~95% CPU usage across all 4 cores, and about 70-75% usage on the GPU.

I completely suck at FPS games like this though :)
 
Hope everyone is enjoying the game, Have a question I will be building my new rig next week and would like to know the best OS to get windows 8 or windows 7 64 bit. I love windows 7 64 bit but want to know if there is a big performance boost with windows 8.thanks
 
So whats the deal with this running bad..40-60fps on medium/high on a 5870 doesnt seem to bad to me. I noticed a few graphical glitches and just had a blast on a 64 player match and it seems fine to me.
 
Well based on this beta, I am sold tbph :)

- gun damage system is perfect, slightly higher than bf 3 especially across long range
- nice amount of destruction
- looks great
- no stupid suppression system
- assault, support and engineer class all feel well balanced, didn't try recon out much but sniping definitely feels weird....
- VOIP = win! had some guy just spamming weird noises earlier too :p :o
- rpgs are stupidly good now, taken out a few helis with them
- liking the new vehicle system with regards to the ammo system, you really can't rape in the same way and have to prioritise who you take out first, when to move in etc. essentially more strategy involved
- helis are awesome, so cool flying them
- tanks don't seem to be quite as overpowered i.e. main shell doesn't have as much splash damage and the shell drops quite quickly
- found myself using some features like shutting the gates a fair bit
- people who work towards team stuff are rewarded a lot more now, no longer are the ones who have the most kills at the top but they are actually in the middle
- perfect hit reg.
- sounds awesome

Rooftop campers aren't as much as a problem as what I thought they would be, although perhaps they would be if they could actually aim :p :o

Game runs pretty well for me, there are bits of lag here and there and occasional slow downs but on the whole I am not having anywhere as bad of problems as what others are having

windows 7 64 bit
network smoothing factor of
i5 750 oc to 3.6GHZ
8GB RAM
MSIO OC 7850 2gb using the latest stable drivers
aero mode enabled
1080P res.
medium settings with mesh set to ultra
