So Ubisoft have managed to pull this off then, after all the doubt about the game and graphics 9/10 people are happy and there's no raging about the game in any area....

....who would have thought.

After a successful R6 seige release and now this, maybe they're starting to listen?

Have been saying all the way through this thread that they have started to follow a new path and really are listening now. The simple fact that they have canceled assassins creed as a yearly should say enough to show this.
 
55fps on ultra with one R9 290. Happy with that. Shame my second card isn't coming till after the beta ends.
Plays really smooth, not had one glitch yet. *keeps toes crossed when typing*

Yeah that said i can understand them not implementing it for a beta. I know they didn't do it for stuff like the crew and such. I think it's to much work for a relatively small percentage of players to focus on it for a beta. They had support on launch for other titles that didn't have it for beta.
 
Just got my BETa key e-mailed to me now on the last day of the test! Downloading now might get and hour or 2 in before the beta finishes.

EDIT***

ooooh reading back through this thread seems like I'm going to struggle to enjoy myself playing on my own

Same! mine just came through lol just glad that i can test if my pc can handle it before launch :)

Ok, UPlay name change to minimise confusion. New name is Tess-Lacoil which is more like my Battlelog id and the same as my R* ID

Okay :) I will change it in OP for you.
 
This might sound stupid, but I've not really ventured into the DZ a great deal yet. Is it worth venturing in there with a two man team? I can imagine we'd just get dicked on by 4 man squads, but I don't know if it's worth my time going in there.

Can they only loot the things you've picked up in the DZ and not extracted? How many extraction points are there? Whats stopping groups of people camping the extraction zone and just taking all the loot?

They will be flagged as rouge and mulered by the rest of the dark zone :D
 
The beta felt very empty to me, not enough content.

does not make sense how many people are saying this sort of stuff. Please tell me any closed beta you have ever played that has had all of the games content available to you.

None because that would be stupid. The whole idea of the beta is for people to get a idea of how the game handles check for bugs and usually with online games test the servers before launch.

Personally i was really pleased by the beta think it needs a few things tweaking here and there. However it run fine for me was fun doing PVE and PVP in groups and solo. Glad they went quite full on with the mmo style elements. It makes combat really interesting. I know a lot of people are disappointed by the combat due to the fact if someone has better gear than you then you will probably die... but that's the whole idea behind a mmo. While there wasn't a whole bunch of items you can tell that there is a very complex system to work on.

I like the legendary affixes that come with items for example targets below 30% hp take 100% more damage. That's extremely diablo like.

My main concern for the main game is not content or it's longevity. No my main concern is it's hackers/exploiters and the rouge system needing balancing. Was in combat with a few legendary enemy in the DZ and someone decided to walk in front of me as i was shooting. This marked me as rouge and he then proceeded to kill me whilst i raised my hands to let him know it was a accident of his own fault.]

overall though really pleased with the overall feel to the game.
 
Not worried about the cheating part particularly. But I would like to see an explicit switch to engage rogue mode, it is a pain in the arse when you clip someone by accident, particularly with the large bullet spreads on some weapons.

I'd also like to see a feature where anyone that types 'rouge' in chat get's a bright red jumpsuit for 10 minutes :P

Im just hoping UBI nail cheating on the head otherwise for me could be the deciding factor as to avoid the DZ even though that is clearly going to be the end game.

And at X-Mas the red jumpsuit could be a Santa outfit :D?
 
It's actually not a retarded system I feel, it allows for you accidentally clipping someone during a fire fight and it does a tiny percentage of damage.

Instant rogue would be idiotic, as its been mentioned, plenty of people run in your line of fire, deliberate or otherwise, it can be tricky to stop in time.

Problem is it seems based on your damage vs their defense. I have shot people with 1 bullet by accident and been classed as rouge simply because they walked in front of my line of fire. It needs to be really well balanced and i think it will be extremely hard to pull off sadly.
 
It has in the beta i.e the Scar everyone ended up with, but at launch crafting the rare drop blueprints will give you the best gear.

devs themselves have said the best gear will only be attainable through the DZ including the best blueprints and crafting materials. I mean sure you can gear to a good standard without the DZ and probably full yellow (legendary?) items. But they won't be the best you can get by a margin.

Should have checked when the beta closed haha because i was doing another really big bullet impact artwork and had spent three hours making a really good one :( all gone.
 
One of the main concerns raised in the TotalBiscuit review I saw. They're striving to be ultra-realistic in weapons, but then the combat is like it is..

They have very good ballistics. However from what i know personally they have never been striving for a ultra realistic damage model. There aim has always been to have it set out in a MMO style way and that they have achieved. Unfortunately a lot of people playing the Beta expected the game to be something different to a mmo. a lot of folk had feelings it was going to be another "DayZ" style game without zombies and it has never aimed to be that just peoples speculation making others think the game was going to be something different.

Same goes for the map size. We had a lot of speculative videos about the map size being X size and how it was going to be huge and yet Ubisoft never confirmed any map size but for some reason again people think because a video speculated about the map size it MUST be that size and are now hating on ubisoft for the map size that they never said they would give.
 
What is the cheapest price for this at the moment guys?

Free if you rob it from your local GAME ( they don't deserve your money anyway)

£3.50 from strange Paul on the corner.

Probably aside from these two fantastic and authentic recommendations ( strange Paul will even give you a copy of avatar on dvd ) I would say that the likes of g2a/g2play/kinguin are the cheapest currently.
 
Again as i said above ubisoft don't support sli or crossfire during betas. Even if Nvidia have released a profile for it, that does not mean it will be working. It just means it has a profile ready for launch. The exact same thing went on with the crew and other ubisoft beta titles.
 
Managed to get a few hours in when it was closed beta and thought it was pretty solid. Played last night through all of the main missions plus side ones until I realised it had become 3am :).

I'm now thoroughly looking forward to this come full release (although haven't ventured to the Dark Zone during this portion of the beta, which I know will be a gank fest given my luck xD )

If possible can OP add me to list - Uplay is JayT051.

Done :)
