Something came up and I wasn't able to only try with one 580, and I have to (forcefully) go to bed for work. Sorry about that.

But you all will see in a few hours anyway :)

Actually fuck it, I'll do it real quick.

So this beta won't be available on PSN for MoH early access till the store updates? In the OP I saw 8:00am for MoH Limited Edition people.

Why do they need to send keys, when there is Origin, which has information about all the games registered on your account? It doesn't make any sense.

Alright. I did FRAPS in each section of Metro. The beginning in the park, the tunnel, and the city.

Park = Avg 46fps
Tunnel = 76 fps
City = 50fps

So it definitely drops when you're outside. This was on one 580, I disabled SLI. Ultra everything, highest AA etc. When I looked it was usually in the 45 or so range. Inside the tunnel that number might be skewed a bit as FRAPS was still running when I died and was viewing killcam, so FPS went up as it was only focusing on one player. For comparison with SLI I never dipped below 80fps outside. In the tunnel 100+.

So there you go.

Fuck, I really hope we don't have to wait till the PSN store updates. That's gonna be a big download. I'd rather get it out of the way earlier in the day.

It was the same way for the alpha too. Outside ran a lot lower but then my FPS would double in the tunnel most of the time. Hell, I liked the tunnel section more just for the lighting alone. :p

I guess all the things it has to render out in the park outnumbers those narrow tunnels...I'm still wondering what I could pull off safely since I want to make sure the outside is at least 30FPS.

It's not looking good for my single 6970 at 2560x1440.

Should be comparable to smokey's test a few posts above.

Not too sure about that. A 6850 will perform lower than my 580.

Game flows so smooth. Night and difference between this and the Alpha (had vehicle, different layout). Shit really feels like you're in a battle. No vehicles just straight gunplay. Good shit.

If you want 60+ you'll have to get another card. I noticed immediately how much choppier it was at 40ish fps, than the 60+ I was playing at. At that resolution I'd guess high 30s for you outside.

Guys I'm a PS3 user here. Got MOH Tier 1 Limited Edition and everything. I have the game online pass on my account. How am I going to get the early beta? Anyone with a PS3 here got the client yet?

Anyone in the UK received their Medal of Honor Tier 1 access codes for the 360 yet? Thought I might have had a wee surprise in my inbox this morning, but nothing :(
