one problem im having is game runs fine for the first game i play, mainly at 60fps but dropping to 40 when lots of action. But when the first game is over and the next ones loads my fps seems to be capped at 30, doesnt go above or below it. Aint so bad cos its constant but it aint quite 60 i get on the first game! :mad:

Running 7.6 cats. Was using 7.4 cats before these, didnt get the 30 cap then but performance didnt drop into the 20s at times

check the official forums, theres a sticky thread there explaining in detail how the fps is capped at 30/60/90 etc, how to uncap it totally , or cap it at a higher increment, cant link directly from work but youll find it easily enough at http://community.enemyterritory.com/
 
Sorry no more Beta Keys left..

Azrael 1 & Kezmo had the last two....

May be able to get more tomorrow? Will post if i can.... ;)
 
I'm really upset, I have just got back from Cuba and have missed out on the chance to get a key for the beta!!

If there is anyone that has access to a spare I would be really grateful!!

I have been waiting for this game for ages, a huge fan of RTCW so I want to give the latest spin off a run out!!

Alternatively if you dont like the game!!!

Thanks in advance!!!
 
Thanks to Ak!ta Im finally in the beta.

Its a lot different to BF2142.

The graphics are awful but I've read that they did it on purpose and will release the high end graphics options in retail ?

Vehicles don't feel right, when i step into a tank it doesnt feel like im in a mighty powerful tank. Its more like an arcade type of tank if that makes sense.

Strog jetpacks are annoying as hell to kill.

Im still learning and experimenting with the game. Its enjoyable but I'll reserve judgement until the final retail version.

Whoever said graphics dont matter in game sure was wrong.
 
If anyone has a spare key pleaseeeeee email it to the address in my sig. :D

EDIT - I pre-ordered ages ago and was told id get the chance to reserve my nick... how? :confused:

For anyone who wants to know, according to splash damage the graphics that are in the beta are FINAL with the exception of a few effects.

Was on the quake wars official or beta site with one of the devs in irc answering questions relating to this.

(Respen) Wils, are the textures/graphics in game now pretty much what we should expect in release?
(Wils|work) pretty much, minor improvements aside

Guy on the quakewars forum says this makes the game look like th screens


Try typing this into the console. (cntl alt ~)
r_megadrawmethod 0

Basically the beta had 4 renderers. 2 will be cut. 0 Is the ultimate quality renderer.

It makes the game look like the screenshots


Ive not tried it but judging from his descriptions it just enables High quality mode like you can do in the options.
