There's only one map?
How do you get the game to show FPS?
1920x1200 with everything high except AA=8x and AF=16. Very playable, but want to see what FPS I am at.
 
Well I had major issues with it. It took me three tries to set it to 1920x1200, as it kept crashing everytime I set the resolution to that. Servers it was showing with open spots, kept saying they were full when I clicked on them, then they would freeze up and I could not join anything.

Once I finally got it up and running, it was only showing me half the map as I ran around, so I could really only see the ground and my feet, and sometimes the feet of other players. :frown:

I stopped playing after about 1/2 hour of setup and a whopping 5 minutes of actual gameplay.

I guess I'll give it another shot tomorrow.

I'll have to agree with pontifex. I just spent the last two hours playing and I am really, really disappointed. The vehicles suck, period. They are too choppy to drive and the controls are terrible. The guns are decent, and classes are alright. The levels are decent, and the graphics are nothing to complain about, but they aren't THAT great. There are so many little things that I don't like.

On the plus side, the game seems to run great. Too bad its just not that fun.

You are stuck at 60FPS cuz it's a Doom3 engine limitation.

And I am enjoying it so far. Definitely needs some work, but its a beta release anyways. It will get better with time.

try this in your console
com_unlockFPS 1
com_unlock_timingMethod 0 (this will render all frams, fps can fluctuate, and feel jerky. change to 1 for smoothness)

Ive been having a blast playing.

Understood, but I have played a lot of betas and this one is on par with Vanguard as to the number of bugs I have encountered so far.

Maybe with this game it is a Crossfire issue? Who knows; I'll just try it again tonight.

Cheers,
KT

Sweeet. Thanks. 🙂
 
I'm also pretty unimpressed. The graphics are good but not great and the gameplay is pretty derivative. So far, I liked BF2142 better.

I'll probably be on at around 5:30ish PDT (so about 2.5 hours from now). That is assuming I can get it up and running. 😛
