I know, i'm just getting a little anxious since I could be playing the beta right now since I already downloaded the beta client and it's getting pretty late.

When you get the key click on the cog at the top of origin window and click redeem product code, put the key in and beta should appear on your games list.

Avira gives me a warning that bf3.exe is a TR/Patched.Gen on the torrent download. Is this just a false alert?

Yes. It was the same with alpha.

It did the same thing to me with the alpha, I made an exception for it.

If you downloaded it via Reddit, it should be false. Unless every poster in that thread is in on the conspiracy.

A few impressions from the PS3 version.

Sound is un fucking believable, it even tops Bad Company 2.

The lighting is excellent, the metro tunnels particularly are amazing, seeing muzzle flash from the weapons reflect into the floor is crazy good.

The sense of the killer bullet around the corner is perfect, makes you dive to the floor when the shit hits the fan, love it.

Tearing is apparent for those that loathe it...

Spawning takes an age sometimes, hate that countdown bullshit.

One minus point is...

NO VEHICLES is a fucking disastrous decision from Dice, why? makes no sense.

75fps minimum everywhere in the game, no matter where I am, mostly it's 100fps at 2560x1440 with all settings absolutely maxed... I am STOKED.

Here is some loving guys.

Comparing those screens to PS3, I'd say apart from resolution and aliasing it's pretty damn close.

Yea, I think PC version has GI, which should make lighting look marginally better.
Got to say though...Those screens don't exactly look all that hot. Not that it looks meh by any means, just, a bit sterile.

Dude... It's Battlefield. The game is balanced with that in mind. Tickets = players deaths, you start adding instant respawn and the games last 5 minutes. Not to mention they change the actual gameplay completely.

So, anyone in the UK got their MOH beta keys yet?

Not sure if you need one, the only way of me getting into the beta early was by buying the tier one edition of MoH (which I did) but I got in by searching on the store.

Got to have something to moan about, the beta is nigh on flawless :p

When my money is involved, patience is hard to come by. Especially when I haven't had my morning coffee.

But you're right, I'll back off for a bit.

ColonialRaptor, what is your vid card? I want to run 2560x1600 and have 60fps minimum maxed out. I have 2x 6950 right now and I don't think that will do it.
