Has anyone purchased a specific beta code for Black Ops 3?

Would love to know if they work - could be interested in purchasing one!

Snips, don't do it. It's CoD man, they are hella-bad on PC, wait for the release reviews before you consider a purchase.

I know - I should have stopped at WAW as it was the only one worth playing. However, it does look good :rolleyes:

Can't you just pre-order from amazon, get the beta code and then cancel your order?

LOL - superb idea!

Pre-order from Amazon for your beta key and cancel the order or buy one for £2

Not sure why you would need to beta test a COD game as it's the same thing every year

I dumped a lot of hours into MW2 & 3 and it was truly awful looking back. Blackops 1 was great but didn't spend anywhere near as much time playing the multi player. WAW was where it was at and was the last decent game.

I have been very cautions around buying any other COD games until they released footag of BLOPS3. It actually looks good despite being a COD game. I'm still slightly reserved about buying the game but that may change with my experience of the beta.

Always looking for a new game to waste time on

Cheers BuffetSlayer - gives me something to look out for if I manage to get on tonight. It's starting to sound just like the BF4 launch...lol

Why can't they just get it right, damn lazy devs...

snips86x · 26 Aug 2015 at 10:23

snips86x · 26 Aug 2015 at 11:30

Jezusss the lag if just horrific!!

You guys saying it stutters, it must be your config. Mine is buttery smooth and hitting the frame limit of my swift (144).

I'm wondering if the input lag is down to v-sync. I've not tried again but if I get time tonight after packing for i55, I'll mess around with the config and see if I can improve things. I hope its not going to be a "requirement" for g-sync monitors with these new games to iron out these annoyances.

That's your system.

Tried it, didn't like it. Mouse acceleration is horrid, why do we still have that rubbish in the game. The other bits could be fun if it wasn't for that.

Agreed!!

The original footage of testing made it look really good but its an awful port. I'm 1/2 tempted to find COD4 for i55 - pretty sure that's still going!
