[UnholySpectacle]

east coast has to be getting shafted atm.

I've been at 17% for half an hour.

 

[Nobby]

Im in Seattle and the beta took about 20 minutes to download, lucky me I guess. Played 1 game, started with rocket launchers and did pretty horrible in the beginning but atleast I didnt end up in last place. Game looked good I thought and ran smooth and had no problem with the aliasing. Gonna go hang out with the gf for a bit then back to more halo!

 

[Laika]

77 percent in 1 hour and 20 minutes, come on, stretch run

Kind of. Tracking is much weaker now, and the gun loses battery if you hold it charged, but it will still take down ALL shields if the hit lands.

Yeah, it does not track like it used to. Thank ****ING God. It will also stop vehicles now.

Ours is going at a smooth and steady 1% every minute or two.

We were stuck at 0% for a solid 10 minutes before anything happened.

1-4% happened over a period of 10-15 minutes.

4 turned to 8, and it's been going smoothly since.
