I hear it's better now, but they still have a lot of stability, compatibility, optimization and also game balance issues to work out. Since I got my new PC up and running I might try it over the weekend, if I'm not too busy.


What I don't like is that DICE said that they had separate teams working on the PC and the console versions of the game. When this beta launched it became pretty obvious that this was untrue, since the PS3 beta has been running well for quite some time, yet the PC beta is very buggy. Yes, of course, the hardware/software compatibility issues make PC beta's harder to do, but if they really had worked on the PC version as much as they did on the console version, it would have been much better.

So yeah, it's another console port, but I guess we all have to come to terms with the fact that these days most games are developed for the consoles and later ported over to the PC. All we can do is hope that DICE can do a decent job with the porting...

I don't have an amazing Graphic Card but I do have a decent one GT 8800 512 MB and it runs well at this point (the beta). I do have to turn some of the settings down so I do not get 2 fps durring huge explosions though. All in all its a blast so far.

Vehicles are king in this game though, I perfer squad/infantry tactics versus vehicle warfare personally. But two capable people in a tank can do a lot of damage specially with the desctruble environment in this game. However, a couple of people with C4 and a rocket launcher can take out said tank.

I can't wait until release to play with you guys, having a squad full of capable people would be epic fun in this game.
