I enjoyed it today when I was playing on my own, it seemed far more responsive, but playing it tonight with Kreeeee I was having to fire full clips into people to get a kill. People were also getting kills on me after I had already killed them.

Can't see myself forking out for it anyway. If it had dedicated servers like 1943 so it was lag free I might have considered it, but I don't know it just doesn't feel right when playing.

Yes its dedi servers, but I've got in to some lagging games tonight as well. Hopefully just a short term problem

When the game works I enjoy it, but I'm often finding I'm lagging all the time or we're being steam rolled by vehicles and nobody is doing anything about it except dying.

I try to take down tanks with my RPG but since it takes 3 or more shots from the front I can only get 1 hit on it before it either kills me or drives off and fixes itself. It's easy enough saying shoot it from behind, but all it does is camp near their spawn on the hill and never comes anywhere close. We also never have any tanks of our own either because people keep running off with them and instantly dying.

I would gladly play the game if it was <£20, but there is no way I am paying £40 for it and by the time it comes down in price nobody will be playing it anymore.

Part of the poor play is related to the fact its just a demo. They'll be a lot more people pulling their weight and playing as full squads in the final game.

I think you guys have been very unfortunate to get into a laggy game. Don't forget, this is the BETA and there will still be things that will get sorted out, a lot of things.

I am sure this public BETA will make a huge difference in the end game. Also, another thing, this is one map out of how many possible? So can't really judge a game on it's 1 map BETA lol. If it's anything like BC1 I will 100% fork out for it. Well, I got it on pre order before even playing the BETA because I'm that much of a fan boi lol.

As Kreeeee said its a demo but it is 7 weeks old and the majority of the PS3 beta fixes didnt make it in.

Again the random shaking is a bug that wont be in the final version either.

I'm expecting it to be the same. Gordon Van Dyke said they are aiming for graphical parity with Uncharted 2! ;)

Yeah I'm sure there will. There's a lot of people on the official forums claiming that the PS3 beta was vastly superior to the Xbox 360 demo but I dont trust any of those guys and a lot of them sounded like fanboy statements.
 
ic1male said:
Hmm, difficult to compare when the maps are totally different!

Yeah a lot of people have said the same thing. seems the map from the PS3 beta is much preferred. I must admit I do prefer the look of the ps3 beta map but its probably a "grass is always greener" issue as well.

I had no qualms about the game whatsoever with regards to framerate - it was teh jaggies that were a bit distracting. Noticeable on the desert landscape and I expected they would be on a snowy landscape, too but they weren't on the Xbox demo. So wonder if that version has AA and PS3 not. Will soon see... I am looking forward to playing again with the bug fixes though.

From what i've heard the 360 demo does have more AA then the ps3 beta which by the sounds of it had none. Hopefully its better now. Are you downloading/playing now ic1male? or are you out and about?
 
MW2 gameplay is a joke. The fact you can get 7 gun kills and then be on a 30 kill streak is a cr@p.

They should just do away with gun kills and everyone should ride around on chocolate horses beating each other with inflatable didlos - while simultaneously pulling bingo numbers out their arses to see what their next computer controlled death rampage will be.....Its pretty close to that already.
