    Why are people so full of S....
    All games are full of bugs before release. The Beta is there for EA to sort out more bug a lot faster.
    What I have seen from the BETA the full game is going to rock. What did people expect. A full beta with no
    bugs. The word BETA means buggy!!!!! You are going to get problems. You are going to get graphics problems.
    Everyone must just relax and wait for the full version. No need to cancel there orders. Yes even the full game will
    have problems but patches will fix the problems.
    All that I know is I am supporting the best game of the year. That game is going to rock. No MW3 does not come close.

    The main issue is...The Beta has a insane amount of issues, and I bet you those people that ended up canceling has the same fear I have, and that is that not all the issues will be sorted out by release date ( I really don't see that happening) So they will end up patching the game after release. Also they over hyped their own title way to much, which killed it for me and why I ended up canceling my Pre Order.

    Say what you will..Activision know what they are doing and it shows through out the whole COD series.

    I always leave my preorders for a few days before release. I'm still preordering the game, the beta convinced me that I'm going to love it. This is the exact opposite reaction I had to the MoH beta (that sucked big time).

    oh and if you haven't noticed...we as gamers DO NOT WANT 90% complete titles launched, we pay 100% of the cash but then we have to suffer and wait for fixes for bugs and shit.

    Well bugs in this BETA kind of reminds me of Black Ops launch. Except no one has really been complaining about lag this time around?

    People are tired of being jerked around by developers who continue to release unfinished code - Dead Island is another great example.

    It would be interesting for DICE/EA to indicate what % of bugs they picked up and corrected through testing and what was picked up by the beta.

    Don't think you can lag in bf3, the games don't last long enough oh or the game just bombs
    Guess that's why

    I agree games the are released that are not finished. But I do not think this is the developers fault. I think it is some
    managers that set a release date that make it impossible to finish the product.

    What I have seen of the BETA the game is going to rule! Let hope they can fix a lot of stuff before the release date.
    O ja if you look at Bad Company 2 they just release a 2.5GB patch update. So all games do get updates.

    I do agree I do not want to buy a game that is 90% complete. I want to full 100% complete
    working gaming. Because games are not cheap at all!!!.

    I just think that if they had enough balls to release open Beta, then be open about everything.If you are receiving bug lists from people, list em to the public, then make the public aware of the next patch updates and take bugs off list.

    Make me feel like you are aware and you are taking care of the problem.
    These bugs they listed here:-
    •Fixed occasional client crash when reviving.
    •Fixed killcam showing glitched area under map if your killer is dead.
    •Issue with spawning on dead squad mates fixed.
    •Fixed a bug where shooting at a moving enemy could cause more than the intended amount of damage.
    •Crosshairs for shotguns have been replaced with a new, thinner, art.
    •A subtle low health screen effect has been added.
    •Tweaked scores of Medals and Service Stars.
    •Tweaked the Rank progression.
    •Pushing prone on console will not play the animation twice.
    •Fixed loss of Squad Leader after EOR at some times.
    •Framerate stability fixes.
    •The 3D spotting icons has been tweaked to better match the target’s visibility. Icons will show frequently less on mostly obscured targets.
    •Fixed issue with crosshair disappearing after round transition.
    •Fixed issue with crosshair disappearing after trying to deploy while the countdown timer still active.
    •Squad list now shows specializations chosen, VOIP activity and dead squad mates.
    •Non working options in squad menu fixed: “Private” flag and “Switch Teams



    Out of these bugs listed, i could only find 4 important updates that I feel makes the game better.The rest is cosmetic stuff.
