    So caspian border is pretty flippin awesome. No lag for me, plays smooth on highest settings, pre-order is inevitable.

    got a pretty nice rig, eh? the lag I've been experiencing is server-side but the framerate isn't too great either on that map... though I'm pretty picky and need my 60+ fps...

    I got an Intel 2600k, AMD 6970 and 8 gig ram and, I haven't checked this for sure, but it feels like 25-40fps on Medium when you're in the middle of caspian. Operation Metro ran just fine on Ultra.

    I'm running it on an i7 930, GTX470, with 8 gigs of RAM so I don't think it's any better than your system. It's most likely not running at 60+ fps for me, though it's enough for it to be smooth and it's constant (there's a drop every know and then when a lot of explosions and crap are going off around me.)

    Perhaps a different driver set would help? I'm not too sure but with those specs I don't see any reason why you would be getting such low fps on medium.

    Wow you cant get 60FPS with that setup?

    Yup, using the right drivers seem pretty important when it comes BF3. Also, it appears that Nvidia users are enjoying slightly better framerates.

    Jake Gilla: nope, I can doublecheck later but it defintely does not feel like it. On caspian border that is. On Metro the game is a lot smoother on my machine.

    I started fraps, went to a certain location on caspian and got 44 fps with Ultra Settings and 43 fps with Low settings.

    The fuck?

    Beta ends tomorrow. I'll wait until release and see what they've done with the final version.... I'm not super-hyped anymore. Seems a bit unpolished atm but I'm hoping for the best.

    Just have to keep in mind that terrain deformation is disabled in the beta because Operation Glitcho , so in release you'll make potholes everywhere. And take down the antenna tower in Caspian Border

    And this right here is why I never touch betas anymore.

    I will be great for sure ! ( i hope )

    still getting PUSS 3 ver for now, and i will grab PC ver later on when the dust drops down, i'm super angry about web browsing servs stuff tho, just hate it.

    Starting SP will need to be logged in to battleLog as well ?

    The issues I see are not completely tied to the game's beta status, imho. I don't think they'll overhaul helicopter steering before release for example.

    The issues I have, have nothing to do with it being a beta. The whole UI is terrible. So many issues its a joke, not being able to press esc whenever... really?

    That's being changed in the proper release, apparently.

    Still just a beta issue though that'll effectively have never existed for us non-beta-playing types. It's not uncommon to leave stupid/obvious things until last to fix, the psychological reasoning for this I don't know but it happens all the time at work.

    It should have never have even been an issue. Its literally the first thing you learn in UI modules at uni. Exiting must ALWAYS be available.

    The game should be good enough to make people not EVER want to exit the game. Maybe that's what DICE were hoping for with BF3

    LOL Pogo,

    Its probably brought over from the Bad Company 1 & 2 tech, since thats sadly how those games worked as well. I'm sure PC gamers however have provided enough good feedback to get it fixed...hopefully
