Some people say that the beta only has medium graphics because there is no difference between medium and high.
Bitchy doea the game run smooth?

I bought Medal of Honor a few weeks/months ago
If you pre-ordered trough Origin or bought Medal Of Honor on steam you get an early access code.

Tried it today and its fun to play.

Some people say that the beta only has medium graphics because there is no difference between medium and high.

Might be true cauz i dont see any difference between ultra and low settings either. Runs pretty good considering the fact that i have only a 8800gts and Q6600.

Scroll down to "Bildkvalitet" and you can see the diffrence.

Yea the game runs smooth i play on medium + some settings on high and on the smaller metro map i have good FPS but a little bit of lag on the big 64 player map. EA/Dice said that the graphics are not done and will be improved in the final version.

Battlelog works quite well but needs to be fixed a little and the only complain there is that you can not yet start a game without joining a server which kinda sucks but other than that i like that you can browse for servers without starting the game which also means you don't have to start the game to be in a queue for a server and stuff like that and you can watch a movie or surf the internet while you do it.

The guns all handle very well and there is tons of scopes and accessories you can unlock. The sounds are awesome but there is a few sounds missing for shotguns/snipers. People have been complaning on the glare of scopes but i don't mind it since else it would be next to impossible to see snipers especially when you now can prone.

Right now it's kinda hard to get into the big 64map server since you need a password(which they change quite often but are not that hard to find online) to join them and they are usually full and alot of people in queue. I manage to play a 1-2 hours on the big map yesterday and it was awesome, it really feels like a battlefield game. The jets handle very well(only problem is that it's hard to get one since 30% of the team camps next where the jets spawn) same with helicopters. The metro map is also very fun to play but it's a rush map and quite small so it's alot of CQC.

There are a few annoying bugs like on some places you can fall trough the ground, reviving is kinda bugged and doesn't some time works but it's a much better system then bc2 since now you have to accept if you want to be revived so some asshole medic can't just revive you in the middle of a firefight unless you want to get revived. The squad system is not really working yet..

On tweakers they say that you can join every passworded server with google chrome without entering a password but you need to change some settings.

Guest Fri Sep 30, 2011 5:55 pm

Ah yes, nah you have to download a plugin to do it or use ctrl+shift+s and paste some crap that i can't remember :s

The outcome of the review didnt suprise me. I knew campain will be not that good. But seriously who buys BF3 for playing singleplayer? I rly enjoyed playing the Beta but unfortunately it killed my graphic card :(.

I got crossfire hd6850 (20% overclocked)
and I play with the settings HIGH.

FPS is between 80 / 100 but I play with VSYNC on.

wift xbox 360 its more fun to play bom

**fear** Sun Oct 30, 2011 4:15 pm

Thinking about to buy a HD6870 for Bf3. Should be enough to play on high. But what is really bothering me is:

Ive just played this game and it runs @ high details with AA/AF HBAO 1440x900 smooth . Seems its better optimalized than BF:BC2 .

if you want to have the most bang for your money I would go for a amd.

my benchmark diagram shows completely other results then the one elecktr has posted.

@elecktr how can a 6970 be faster then a 6990(which is almost 2 times a 6970).

I agree with Ruben and the game is fun. I played a lot and already unlocked everything for the engineer class :s

**fear** Sun Oct 30, 2011 6:33 pm

Actually i dont want to upgrade my system at all. My plan was to wait till new generation of gfx + ivy bridge and upgrade my system then. But my gfx got killed by bf3, so i dont want to spend to much money. Plus i have a only a q6600, so it makes no sense to go beyond of a hd6950/gtx 560ti otherwise my cpu will be a bottleneck and i dont see any improvement at all.

fear , for this game its better to buy nvidia .

If i look at the charts the gtx 560ti is only slightly better than the 6870 but costs 70 Euro more, atleast here in germany. No reason to pay 70 for maybe 5 fps more.

if you want to have the most bang for your money I would go for a amd.

So this is more important for me.
