It's not enough that it's tagged a Beta, or that DICE said the version was already 1-2 months old, or that they said they were stress testing the servers. Apparently some people just don't get it. The Beta, in it's current form, is not what the final game will be like. A majority of the bugs that exist, have been, or will be fixed by release. This is not a fucking Demo, it's not for you to "try before you buy". It exists for DICE to (graciously) give you a taste of what the game looks and feels like on the base level, and to test out all their systems, so when the game does launch, they already have all the bugs people are bitching about fixed.

I kind of realized that I don't use up and down on my mouse nearly enough on the ground. If we are both standing, they get shot in the head. If I'm standing and they're crouching my bullets whizz over their head and I get killed. If I'm crouching and the enemy is standing, I'll kill them by shooting off their man-parts. I need to fix this...

I just aim for the penis. Then it's still a headshot either way.

Of course man all are welcome! This is just for people to have fun and play with people that understand its a game and not a competition. Just if you invite anyone make sure they know the following.

1. No cheats, hacks or anything. We catch you then you're off the platoon and out of the clubhouse.

2. Act like a dick and they are out. I mean more of a dick then most of us are.

3. Don't misrepresent TPU in any way.

4. Understand we are not a clan but a gay club.....without the gay.

5. Erocker has his own "special initiation" for noobs. DON'T FALL FOR IT! I'm still trying to wash off the dirty feelings.

^ Yeah well the alpha is still listed in our Origin accounts too so it looks like that shit doesn't get cleared. By default, at least.

You're not missing much.

It's a buggy mess unless you can find a 32 player with a good ping. I just tried 10 different 64 player servers from NA/EU/Oz and all of them played like shit.

Ive been in a few 64 players that play great... I just always disconnect in the middle of the 2nd or 3rd round and get no credit for anything I did that round

Counting before when Caspian was up, plus today, I've probably played 15 or so Caspian servers and only been in 2 that lagged.

If you want to rank up and get weapon unlocks maps like Caspian won't do. And since there is no ability to provide UAV you have no idea what you are walking into. From what I've seen most camp near flags or try to snipe at high points. And yes, there are plenty of snipers. So, like BF2, if you don't find yourself with amour, jet, attack helo you will find yourself twitting your thumbs a bit. As you try to hike it to the next flag. Hoping you are not sniped or ambushed.

I never played sniper until now.. One hit kills at moderate range is beast. and I've gotten good with the glock 17

Funny isn't it? That you didn't think of being a sniper until you play this map. It's just natural do to the larger size and, you find yourself without some sort of land/air armor. It's the next natural step. If there was more armor on the ground being an engineer would be the next kit as you would find yourself encountering them more.

Just tried a couple of caspian servers. Didn't notice excessive lag but framerates seem to be down a little. I must say I prefer the gameplay to metro rush... and more players is always better. Quite impressed really. Got my best round, 1800 odd points, on a crap team not doing much... not bad

Adjust your search settings to Caspian or Conquest Large.

Theirs hate to say too much space between points, and the lack of infantry cover makes sniping and camping the only thing for non vehicle users to do.
