This is a pre-beta build of my team's end-of-year game. It's.. dodgy but hey.
Controls:
- Arrow keys: Movement
- Z: Jump
- X: Shoot
- A/D: Cycles through weapons
- C: Taunt, but currently sets your position to origin (0,0,0)
Current bugs I know about:
- When you die and are moving, you keep moving until you reset or hit a wall.
- When you die and there's an enemy on top of the spawn, you die again over and over.
- When you PRESS Fire on the pistol and machine gun, it doesn't immediately fire. Shotgun is fine however.
- Everything at the moment currently has infinite ammo.
- There are more that I don't remember, please post!

BF3 beta....I am disappoint. 
Enjoyed some of the gunplay in BF3 beta. Amazing sound effects. Some nice visuals (though performance ain't that great for what you get). Glitchy as hell. Shitty map/mode. Prone wars in the bushes.
Definitely feel like it's done more harm than good. Won't be purchasing day one for full price that's for sure. Can't see the flaws and bugs being fixed in time for launch.
Indeed DeathJr, I am disappoint.

Yeah, too many glitches and graphics nowhere near the scope of the videos. There are literally points in the map where going prone will teleport you in other areas of the map. Destruction is abysmal as well.
Rage mode and that subway map, absolutely boring. So close to launch, they had better fix all these issues. So much for BF3>MW3.

Pretty much. The mechanics are there, but it's drenched in bugs to a point of embarrassment, especially on the hitbox/damage lag side of things. Plus Metro is a fucking stupid map. Beta testing Battlefield 3 with what seems like a map straight out of Bad Company 2 is just...insanely stupid. Caspian Border should have been there day one and accessible to everyone.
Alas, I shall get Battlefield 3 eventually, but the beta removed my interest in being there day one. Too many other games to buy.

Why finish a game when all gen have been happy to test your game for you? Even console games launch with a few bugs and day one patches. Get thing out the door asap so you can start making money rather than blowing it.

DICE say that for the final release they've already patched many of the bugs in the beta. But, this is DICE, and Battlefield games have always been as buggy as hell. Complaining a Battlefield game is buggy is like complaining you have to breathe air. The graphics aren't like the trailer because the beta graphics settings are locked at a lower level.
I like the subway map once the fighting moves into the actual subway. Before the subway and after (on the one game that's actually gotten that far) aren't very interesting, though. Hopefully they'll unlock Caspian Border soon.
All the beta has done is convince me not to get the 360 version and to get the PC one instead. I was never going to get it day one, and this hasn't changed that.

TBH, I can't imagine getting it on 360 at all... so, doing the right thing, man!
Also, the BETA reports make me extra thankful I don't have time to get involved in some massive online shooter. Makes me feel warm and fuzzy.

Few bugs?
I think you would be hard pressed to find ANY piece of software out there WITHOUT a few bugs. codswallop

To be honest I haven't experienced a huge amount of bugs, and none of them are really game-breaking. I wasn't running the recommended beta video drivers, and until I did that it crashed a bit. After that the game was pretty stable. Sure, people were clipping through the ground on occasion and grenades got stuck on shrubbery, but besides that there's been nothing horrifying.Omi said:

Depends if you want a cd key or the actual disc. I got my anarchy edition from ozgame for $44 i think it was.
Still hasn't shipped or turned up of course!
I'm also getting towards the end of ASOS, fuuuuuuuu. Must try and finish it today while at work haha!

"Samsung has agreed to make a number of changes to its Galaxy Tab 10.1 to keep the devices from getting banned for sale in Australia before the holiday shopping season. ... Samsung agreed on Thursday to remove features that use certain heuristics to filter out "accidental" touch input as well as the "zoom bounce" effect that the iPhone uses when zooming past the minimum or maximum zoom level."

lol @ people finding bugs in a beta. Did we mention it was a beta build?
you've just done unpaid QA work for EA.
You'd be surprised how often games at Beta are broken and ship fine by the time they go gold.
conversely
You'd be surprised how often games at Gold are broken and ship anyway
which one BF3 turns out to be is TBD.

BF3 will still be buggy upon and long after release.
Clive, I think it's also because of the design decisions DICE have mode. The beta glitches and bugs are kinda funny but there seems to be a lack of communication on their end with all the complaining that people are doing, like battlelog sucking ass, lack of squad management in game and so on.
Looks like google rolled out their UI changes in their online office suite? Looks different that's for sure.

Oh, I assure you, I'm never surprised when a game's retail release is in no shape better than the supposed Beta. For a game as big and expensive as Battlefield 3, I kind of expected something a little more polished than the atrocious Red Orchestra 2 beta only a month ago. I feel like the actual frustration level between the two games has been relatively equal.

As for RAGE, let me know how initkeys goes for people. The game kind of looks like yet another brown wasteland shooter, but also I think I'll still enjoy having the ability to complain about it for 20 hours of however long it takes to get bored of it.
