And it's not bullshit, bullshit is when you talk about something that isn't there.
If you chris refuse to accept that the game has problems, at that point you become fanboy and see it all as perfect and start defending it because you feel you need to.. when really a fan would know the good from the bad.

bullshit/boring people constantly going on about issues which have already been stated previously that are being dealt with/have been resolved in newer versions of the game which the public hasnt yet played.

its still in beta format, yes simply it might be for server testing atm, but i'd much rather them release a half assed beta than have these issues on day 1 of launch!!

i already stated in my post prior that i agreed it has issues its blatantly obvious....the thing which is getting on my wick is people almost trying to boycot the game before release.

like putting 'operation campfest' as your personal comment....is just going to deter people from buying it.

[Symonator]

Issues that were in pre-alpha, alpha and beta lol.

No.. they shouldn't release half assed code, that deters potential customers.. not a comment!

SO because it says BETA all the bugs and gameplay problems are fine because it's got "BETA" labelled on it, so no-one has any right to slate the game because the excuses are "it's only beta".

In other words.. EA fucked up and can blame it on beta code so people don't get mad, thats the real truth.

The game already went gold, the master code is already been printed, you gunna get a patch on release fixing all this stuff what the players found.

Who is boycotting? quotes? where have u seen that? can't say i have seen it anywhere apart from people crying they are cancelling pre orders on a map not even good in itself.

I am still buying bf3, just not playing this map...this BETA is nothing more than an online demo where they test network code, if it was beta they would of took feedback in a forum which doesn't exist.

[chrisdfa1]

Simple fact is were playing code from 2/3months ago! Enough said, so yes were in theory playing an 'old' beta!

and there is a forum for feedback:
http://battlelog.battlefield.com/bf3/#!/bf3/forum/

everyone who received an email got a link to battlelog and in there is the forum for bugs etc etc.

[Symonator]

yeah but thats just the normal forums where u post specfically bf3, it's not a beta feedback forum really.

It's so people can post there instead of the main EAUK section for those in beta.

And why are we playing code from 2 or 3 months ago? when pre-alpha, closed alpha and private beta's were less than that ago? (and all the same bugs still exist in this beta lol)

It's just an excuse whilst they fix it.

[Killzone_Kid]

They should have called it Mother Teresa instead of BETA to avoid the all the confusion, LMAO! I'm not going through another year of pain because this game is so fucked up and unballanced it will take a year (knowing DICE's pace) to fix. I might look at it in 6 months and decide then. At the moment it is a definite NO for me. Glad you liked it Chris.

Oh and Sy, what would you like to bet on the game freezing in choppers? Id did it in BC1 BC2 and I have 0 doubt it will freeze in BF3.

[Symonator]

Oh and Sy, what would you like to bet on the game freezing in choppers? Id did it in BC1 BC2 and I have 0 doubt it will freeze in BF3.

It freezes now without choppers but its all acceptable in BETA remember...
They need to fix alot and i hope they do.. but with the past record, highly unlikely.

[redVENGEANCE]

just paid for my pre-order with shopto

looking forward to this game, the "beta" didn't exactly light my fire, but then bfbc2 beta didn't either

[Killzone_Kid]

Come play BC1 with me Seddon, fuck the BF3

[InfiniteStates]

So no mention of FIXING THE FUCKING FLOOR!

Surely that would be at the top of the list - before the fucking shotgun crosshair anyway...

[YorkshirePud]

It does say its a small selection but YES i agree with you, i looked at that and thought, i dont recognise any issues there that i have noticed in the PS3 Beta, at least it shows they are working on the problems and maybe the big ones havnt been released in a list format like the above

"the beta is a privilege, not a right,"

Not when you treat it like a fucking demo it's not.
