Since the open beta server is using lowyat.net and everyone know its hacked server, it's going to ruin our name for now.
It won't be good to my side either especially I'm so close to obtain gaming.lowyat.net domain D=

QUOTE(Everdying @ Oct 2 2011, 02:06 PM) lol, dont need to worry about ruining the name, cos its already been ruined long time ago. thats one of the main reasons why EA will never allow malaysia to host any official servers. Got history? would like to hear some xD

QUOTE(Everdying @ Oct 2 2011, 02:14 PM) so indirectly lowyat promoting piracy?  since when TF2 is pirated? Do you notice all the servers under my siggy? If they dont like, they wont be ok to give me a subdomain under lowyat.net right? I had been hosting since Januray this year. This post has been edited by sasaug: Oct 2 2011, 02:16 PM

Yeah, I want queue system which I think is one of the best feature in BC2.
1st thing I'm gonna do is play the single player on release day. I know BF3 was meant for MP but why not playing the SP? The last one was pretty ok for me, i dont ask for much =D

QUOTE(Cheesenium @ Oct 2 2011, 03:34 PM) Cant do anything then, cause its a beta. Queue system is important because it allows you to join the game without clicking the Join server button dozens of time to join a server. Same, SP first then, MP. Yup, I want to see how they do the SP this time. Destruction in this case can be whole lot better as lesser entity / objects is in the level so they got room to expand further for better effects compare to MP. Queue system removes spam which in some weaker machine can take it as a ddos attack if there are lots of people spamming to enter it.

QUOTE(Cheesenium @ Oct 2 2011, 03:48 PM) SP looks solid, IMO, and it does seem more plausible this time round, than its just explosions. I just have a feeling that destruction gonna be even lesser this time round, due to larger maps and more players as i have not seen a completely destroyable house even in Caspian. The indestructible tunnel in Metro is just disgusting. I like how they make the destruction on buildings, though, with cracks on the concrete and how destroyed facade looked like with bits if steel rebars from the floors sticking out. It is very realistic from engineering point of view, especially the cracks where you see concrete starts to break out to bits, while being hold in place by steel rebars as they are much tougher to break. Didnt know that spamming Join can be taken as DDoS.  When TF2 went free to play and there is lack of servers and with Valve poor connecting interface, Agentcy and LYN both servers faces higher spike in network usage and almost forced me to ban some incoming IP for spamming too many request from server. SP is the place to show how well the engine can do since you got less stuff to worry about. Less thread to be updated, you focus on showing what to the user in front of the monitor rather than worry what all 64 players see.

I also get flickering issue. I think it was my GC, waiting for more proper drivers.
I just wonder can those ahem server run MP_FOREST in map and start as Casapian Border? I just want to go into the map and see around o.o

If its an indie developer, these bugs in BETA/Alpha is tolerable. I myself work on few project, normal software and also game. I got no one to try except putting it into real test when your stuff ain't that big enough.
When you got close Beta and people lining up to test your stuff then you need some quality control. From a developer point of view, let other see my work at it's best is the best part after the project. I like people to give comment, good one on my product, not just flaming like this kind of shyt is totally worthless. I put time and effort into it, whether it is paid or free, I feel it is important to give the devs some appreciation.
What I meant was this Beta could be better if they show us a better build. Although you just want to stress test the backend, make sure your clients are happy also at the same time. Indirectly, if they are happy with Beta, then more people will buy and it brings profit to the company. Now some are thinking twice or wait everything to be fixed before considering to purchase or not. You will end up with a slow start and gaining people in slow momentum. That is really not the best way to show the year best FPS game.
Hopefully the official release will give us more. I know they will fix almost everything after upcoming patches but it would be better you can release a game with no more patches or perhaps some tiny one only to update stuff, not fix stuff. Patches are heavy to download too just like BC2 ones.

I found out overclocking GC without increasing the voltage(remain in stock) will not increase GPU temp o.o
I used to crash while playing BC2 High but High in BF3 seems ok. No crash so far but flickering problem D=

Driver issues. Need to wait ATI or NVIDIA to update them and it takes quite sometime. 11.8 from ATI which is like 1 month ago one only fixed BC2 crash issue when on higher settings which I faced on my card. Well thats what it say but I stick to medium in BC2.

QUOTE(TechnoG @ Oct 4 2011, 01:06 PM) I thought when they drop the medic pack then it'll spread open?  anyone realized the stupid torchlight? according to DICE, it is suppose to be a 'flashbang' for underground. But wtf, you're on the ground and you still can get blinded by that  doesn't make any sense. I hate that torchlight when it is in front of me..I like it when it is far away from me xD Btw, any gun with a scope will reflect light? I notice from far, there is a shinny thing pop up, not good for sniper o.o

I can see what Dice trying to balance here, torch can flash enemy, can flash ur teammate too and also can reveal your position.
Scope got small reflection(not sure)...scope normally gives big advantage so maybe that is how they balanced it.

Relax, this is just Beta. I'm wondering during official release, if Battlelog went down, means I can't play Single Player too? D= What if I'm in middle of a chapter.
