Hyped to try this. Sounds awesome.

Game is amazing. Played on series x. Looks better than I thought, impressive what they are pulling off on console. Much better than bf5. Guns and movement feels better than ever. Day 1 hopefully they clean up the glitches

CD Keys are selling early access keys for £10.... lmao. Cheaper than pre-ordering I suppose.

I can't get it to work on PS5 at all. Just tells me to preorder or join EA Play which I've already done (EA Play).
PC worked pretty well but as somebody that has a RX580 and a 1440p monitor I'm stuck at Low settings/45-55fps.

Yeh not everyone has ADHD. I'm good.
Honestly, including the art style a lot of the design choices seem to be chasing the COD/Fortnite crowd.
I'm seeing people grapple hook and slide all over the place... In a Battlefield game. It's really not what it used to be.

Well, it's a beta, and multiple devs already confirmed it was a much older build with issues that are already fixed. You know, standard beta / early build practices.
Exactly.

Looks like a ps4 game, jank everywhere, more running than anything else, abysmal flight controlls. Yeah, this beta made me not wanting to pay full price at launch like I planned. Will get it for cheap months later.

Yeah an email that states your "bonus code" or along those lines. My email was back on September 21st.

This game looks a generation ahead of COD. I don't know what Activision is thinking.

Sometimes it's actually hard to figure out if those Kanye memes are actually in reverse lol

I find it hilarious that people expect any battlefield game to be released in a good state. It is almost like they have not paid attention to any battlefield news since the SECOND game ever

This looks quite impressive.
Thought Vanguard looked better honestly.

That's the kind of immersive experiences I'd like to see this generation, along with some other QOL improvements from a developer standpoint. I'd be happy at least.

Game ran a little sporadic initially.

It gets into the upper 90s but drops are harsh. I turned down a few settings as I'm running in 4k. Dynamic resolution scaling helps and found that turning down most of the settings helps smooth out performance.
Game itself is really fun (to me). Hectic and the higher player counts do a lot. Felt like a battlefield you see in those trailers. Action is constant and players are everywhere. I dig it a lot.
No DLSS option sucks though. I feel like I can max this out above 60 but the frame spikes are really bad so concessions have to be made.
