There's a button for using the commorose, so that's probably just unavailable for the Beta.

My problem with BF3 is that the movement feels very sluggish and weird. I've tried messing with the mouse sensitivity and toggling the "raw feed" setting on and off, but so far - nothing. Still feels like I'm trying to move a marionette.

Second problem is my computer shutting down after a couple of minutes of playing, probably due to overheating. I'll have to lower the graphics, I guess. It's annoying having to join a server and spawn before being able to change any settings, though.

And yeah I also hate the health regeneration... I mean I just shot a guy with a sniper and he killed me with 0 % health, presumably because of this "regeneration" nonsense. And also wounding a guy just to get mowed down by him a couple of seconds later cause he spent some time in "cover".

Lowering the gfx settings helped, which in turn made the game less sluggish. I'm getting into it more now, but some things just feel... weird. Might just be that I don't really enjoy the Metro map all that much.

For nothing, it's an open beta. Just download it from Origin.

Just played a few rounds on Caspian Border. Definately feels like battlefield. Rush is too much of a meatgrinder for my taste.

welcome to the future ;) you'll like it here once you get used to it  8)


does the future include forcing you to join a server if you want to change your graphics settings and been unable to select the squad you want ingame.

What other maps except for Op metro and Caspian Border have been revealed so far? I seem to recall that, except for the content of the "Back to Karkand"-DLC and these two maps DICE hasn´t shown us the rest of the stock maps, yet. Or am I missing something?
Just checked it myself, these maps are the only ones revealed so far.

I wonder how many of the unrevealed maps will run with 64-players CQ mode. It´d be a great disappointment if we´d see more Rush mode maps, than "real" Battlefield maps with 64 players...

Alright thx.
I heard some people have problems installing it in a certain folder. Should i just install it in prog files win x86?<--where all my games are installed in.
 Or should i create another folder for it?

If your games are in program files, the mistake is already happened, so go ahead. Origin in all its wisdom most likely already set the games folder there, so just click download.

On a completely different partition from Windows. I would recommend keeping the OS on its own little HD or partition, and installing everything else on another partition. But, that might be too much hassle right now so just install Origin in the default location that it offers.

Don't think there is health re-gen.  In the beta 0% is good to go -1% and under equals dead.  I saw that last night after running through a hail of lead.  I looked down at my health and it was exactly at 0%.   ;D
