THe problem with this article is that not all of the graphical features have been implemented in the beta. I believe th elighting and particle effects are maxed at medium for the beta.

"The beta won’t include all the graphics features which will make it in the final version"

I'm still waiting for my beta key...looks like sending emails is hard.

This is whole beta is screwed up and ridiculous. I was supposed to have early access because I bought Medal of Honor Limited Edition a long time ago, but no beta in the Playstation Store for me. They screwed over a lot of people by making this beta so confusing, they are just trying to use it as a marketing scheme most likely. I will just wait for Thursday and not go crazy over it like other people.

EDIT: @red2tango, yea I believe it is actually, people are playing it already.

@BiggC

the beta isn't up on US store yet. have patience.

Virus2015018d ago

If you're in the US then you should be getting the codes soon. I just got my Origins code and my xbox 360 code a short time after. I'm just waiting to download the ps3 version later on today and play it on my 55" TV.

SweatyFlorida5018d ago

@ BiggCman yah there's tons of confusion. One video on youtube says to just go on Ps Store and search for it while another says you have to wait till DICE sends you a key in which you redeem it to play. I believe it's the latter however, since that's is how I got into MOH beta. So just wait for an email or wait till 29th I guess :/

PC gets beta today, consoles get it on the 29th, just got an email

I'm playin the beta right now and love it, except for all the pop in crap. Every time I squat or move through a bush the screen keeps goin up and down.
Its about what I expected though, with such a huge game you can't expect everything to be perfect out of the gate.

BX815018d ago

Meh, this doesn't do the game justice. I've seen better in the form of footage on this game. I know it looks better than this. PC owners are super lucky on this one.

Fishy Fingers5018d ago

Most of te bells and whistles are being held back to the retail version, that's when you'll see the game really sing.

Oh and what's "dual sli 580s"? 4x 580 or 2x 590. Makes no sense. Probably just 580 SLI.

LightofDarkness5018d ago

It can be referred to as Dual SLI, Tri SLI and Quad SLI. SLI now comes in more than one flavour, so it had to be disambiguated.

Si-Fly5018d ago

Bubbles for "disambiguated" lol.

NuclearDuke5018d ago

I heard a tip on a danish board: If you haven't got a beta key yet, but pre-ordered or did the thing with MoH:LE, you can go into Steam, look under the MoH:LE CD-KEY and find your beta-key there to activate on Origin.

Big_Mex5018d ago

Just got my code in an email. Downloading now :D

lve2playbball5018d ago

i thought it would take forever to dl but I was downloading at 12.5 MB/sec--it took 4 minutes for 3.9 gigs. I have fiber optic but I've never downloaded that fast.

Battlefield 3 Cut Missions From Campaign Detailed by Former DICE Dev

Battlefield 3's former Lead Designer has revealed that there were two cut missions from the main campaign

XiNatsuDragnel166d ago

I wish someone can get those EA game leaks to see all the cut content ngl

anast166d ago

Get rid of campaigns, move the game to mobile, and try to compete with warzone. They would save time and money.

Bf4 was fun hope the new bf is just as good.

hmmm I think there will be no old BF glory days for EA since they are loyal to their greediness and laziness :D

Knightofelemia951d ago

You're asking for a miracle with EA that will never happen unless they can exploit the money making schemes behind it.

MadLad951d ago

We'll see what happens now that Zampella is overlooking the series.
