After I experienced this beta I'm tired of bf4. I run bf3 on ulta settings. I can't get passed 30 fps in bf4. I'm not preodering even if they fix the game. And my pc runs a gtx 660 ti. I can circles around ps4 and xbox with the hardware I have. And I hate cod.

aceitman4291d ago

@harry u know its a beta right , betas are the start of fixing things that are not working right.

HarryB4291d ago

Come on man. I had to buy fucking medal of honor shit fighter to get this beta. And its unplayable. Dice should have tested the game on regular pcs. I know its a beta. I cant play the mother. Its stutters everywhere even on low. I tried the beta drivers.

@Aceitman

I have a 670 GTX and I'm getting some hiccups too. But just like you said, a beta is what it is. an old stable enough build to make the matchmaking works and in the same time straining a bit the servers to get prepared for the real launch.

FATAL1TY4291d ago

BF 3.04 + bad optimization -_-

cyclindk4291d ago

And it has been specifically stated that certain graphics settings are not only unavailable, but patches hammer out all the performance issues generally...

As a PC gamer I would imagine you would understand this.. odd

HarryB4291d ago

Ill give it another try. But I really wanted to play this beta.

cyclindk4291d ago

I am doing PS3 beta now and it is not terrible, like a refined BF3 in many ways, so I imagine the PC visuals and fluidity should be much more welcome.

Can you reduce any settings at all to get a performance boost out of it at least temporarily?

sevilha824291d ago

When are you people gonna learn the diference between a beta and a demo,this is an old build,problably the one from E3.So old your freaking horses.
I admit after a entire day playing the beta i agree that fells like a dlc pack from bf3 with a few new stuff,but rest asure that the final product will be far superior,especially in the new gen,dont worry and be pacient.

MooseWI4291d ago

You're trolling real hard. I even have a 670 and it's bad. It's just a problem with the drivers.

TheFutureIsBlue4291d ago

Anyone that played the bf3 beta knows how fucked up and hilarious it was and how the final game was nothing like it. Calm down, I'm sure they will fix everything.

mhunterjr4291d ago (Edited 4291d ago )

You signed up to be a beta tester, not to get early access to a stable product. If you can't handle playing through unfinished code, you shouldn't have signed up.

"They should have tested it on regular pcs" uh.. that's what the beta is for... smh

If you´re bf3 premium or you bought medal of honor,go to the store ,demos,shooters and it´s there,if not it will available to everyone in the fourth of Octobre

aceitman4291d ago

it go's public on the 4th of oct.

R1V3N4291d ago

Have you submitted your experience as feedback? stating PC specs and when its occurring etc? no, then shut up that's what Betas are for....fixing

somedude3424291d ago

i played the beta on ps3. i gotta say i wasn't impressed. and for some reason when i choose the support class, i cant knife or switch to secondary. and worst of all, when i "toggle" triangle, my right analog becomes useless and i have to "toggle" back just to be able to use it.

game sucks

one2thr4291d ago

Its a "beta", its to be expected... Be grateful you got/get the chance to participate, hopefully you'll do your job and report your problems to DICE, as they want YOUR feedback, based on your experience with the "beta"...

denimsky4291d ago

So did you report the bugs that you found? That's what a beta tester is supposed to be.

dcj05244291d ago

Good. So make it not suck by reporting your problem. That's what beta tester does right?

isa_scout4291d ago

BF3 beta wasn't very polished either. The graphics sucked,framerate stuttered, and glitches galor but I knew going in that it was a beta, and not representative of the final product. I have the utmost confidence in DICE, that's why I bought and played BF3( still playing it now) and that's why I'll be picking up BF4 on the 29th. It's a beta not a demo...Some people sadly don't know the difference.

seanpitt234291d ago

Yes and the bf3 retail copy sucked on ps3 for months and numberous of patches later.

Battlefield 1, Hardline, BF4 Servers Are Being Taken Offline by Cheaters; EA Silent on Issue

Cheaters & hackers have been causing grief on Battlefield 1, Hardline & BF4 servers, with nonstop DDoS attacks among other things. Unfortunately, EA has remained silent about it.

-Foxtrot1191d ago

Course they are silent, they are hoping people flock to 2042

gamesftw2501190d ago

Maybe it was a inside job then haha.

jeromeface1189d ago

wouldnt be the first time, titanfall 1+2 anyone?

PapaBop1190d ago

Not even if they paid me.. EA always do this with old games with less money potential, if this was Ultimate Team, they'd address and sort it faster than stories could spread. Why invest time in their products when they will just dump it in the following years? Then again EA never could see the forest for the trees.

Inverno1190d ago

I imagine after those games were given out for free a couple months back through Amazon, anything that makes people go to 2042 is a plus for them

XiNatsuDragnel1191d ago

They want people to go on 2042. My theory

excaliburps1190d ago

Nah. I think they can't do anything about it or they want to sink money into fixing it.

Pudge1028881190d ago (Edited 1190d ago )

EA owns all BF servers so yes, they can do something about it but they refuse to because they dont want ppl playing their old games instead of the new one. Its EA we’re talking about here

pr33k331190d ago

if this happened in 2042, they'd have something to say. which is weird, considering battlefield 1 has more players on steam right now.

Pudge1028881190d ago

Its so obvious that EA is doing this or hired ppl to mess up the games so that we’d be forced to have just 1 Battlefield working.

FPS_D3TH1190d ago

Honestly it’s probably the devs themselves. They did an update to bf4 way back that kinda made assault rifles doo doo in hopes that people would flock to BF1 cuz BF4 was too perfect

There's a bunch of great shooters on gamepass; both legacy and new.

A recommendation I have is a work in progress preview title called Anacrusis. It's a lot of fun, and has a cool aesthetic.
