BF3 Beta Opinions

Piece of crap tbh.


Constant dcs.
Enemies seem to be able to shoot through rocks sometimes.
Textures flicker.
So hard to join a server.
Everytime I refresh and join a server, it all of a sudden shows 32/32 even if it was on 28/32.
What happend to server queues ?

Some servers, you fall in the map a bit, and your player isnt properly connected to the ground.

Support class is weak.
It is supposed to be able to fire alot of bullets very fast.
Unless prone, you get torn a new one. Snipers make quick work of you when prone too.
(Sniper just a bad kit to include in a Battlefield). Would be much better with a seperate rifleman & medic class.

Just make the sniper rifle(s) a weapon that the assault class can unlock if they want to go sniper.



Game itself seems to be cool.


Dont like how it is so easy to die on normal mode. Its like your player isnt even wearing body armour.

Entry level weps can kill so easily, im not sure why anyone would need unlocks.

The Tank Jet !

Am I missing something with this game ?


Just seems like everyone is able to own with 1-2 shots.

Yet I loose half a clip to kill someone.



Eg. Im sniper right. Makes sense that I should kill in very few shots.
Saturate just owns me with 1 bullet from F2000 after I shoot him in the head with sniper rifle.


Is there some body armour or magnum ammo thing that im missing here ?
Really am confused.

I agree with Crusader i can only kill with the sniper but get killed so easy by others . also feels more cartoon then bc2 and slower moments.

I downloaded it on ps3 and from what you guys are saying, the ps3 version I running better. There are the glitches and bugs that happen, that's understandable but the gameplay is awesome. The customization is mint and I love how you can unlock so many different things. I found it really fun but tbh I'm not that fussy with games. All in all I can't wait for bf3

I keep finding it takes 4-6 bullets to kill at close range aiming down sight at the uber body it kinda sucks but meh

I turned off the "motion blur" setting.

Much better.

I can't believe how shit this game is.. It's so horrible.. lol. I'm actually happy, Cru that you thought the same thing.

It will hopefully be better once the bugs are fixed.


I am going to try tweaking a few settings.

So far i like the actual gameplay. It is a bit glitchy like when people shoot me through rocks and cement walls/pillars as Crusader said. I hate the server browser as it makes it so hard to join a game and it seems to glitch alot. But it is a beta so eh. I assume it will be fixed. Anyways i am still fairly happy with it and will still be buying it.

The ONLY issue I have with the game is using a web browser to launch the game. Other than that I know its a BETA and as such ALWAYS has bugs. The purpose of an open beta is to gain public opinion and incite on issues effecting the game because no matter how hard they try they can not replicate all system configurations. Complaining about a BETA is futile...

Agreed, and with the game play its a different style to bc2, it pays to shoot a few more bullets at your enemy. sometimes i get the same thing that the enemy kills me in 1 shot when i have emptied 5-8 rounds into them. but thats like any game, i get that in bc2. but i also do it to other people. The thing which i think they need to change is the knife slash, it takes 4-8 knife slashes to kill someone, even if it is on the head.

Seems that the UMP submachine gun is very OP.


CK & Texocet were around here last night and we were owning with this gun.

NO recoil.
No need to scope either XD.

Would just run into groups of enemy troups & spray with no scope taking down several before dying.

Its insane.
Fast fire rate (real life UMP is slowish)
Little / no recoil.
Very accurate.


Hope they fix this.

Also pistols have little to no recoil, so essentially they are better alot of the time than assault rifles (very wrong imo).




Rego is bad. CK & Exo watched me use a whole clip on a guy standing right infront of me. Bullets just did nothing.

Then he turned and killed me one shot.



Tbh I prefer the older netcode they used.
Especially when you could tweak it to your latency.

it was amusing indeed the ally way in the metro was funny...walked round a corner into 5 guys with assault rifles took em all down bar one who got a shot in with HIS ump xD
EDIT and it was fun sniping with is with the iron sights xD
