Strange then considering the ''demo'' was harder to get into than this ''Beta''. Epic got a lot of feedback from the community from the beta which I'm sure will be considered for the retail release. No doubt it was further along in the development line than U3 is but that still doesn't excuse the shitty problems everyone is experiencing here.
You cant advertise a beta for everybody on the PSN store and then not expect some negative feedback when no fucker can play the thing.
Maybe Naughty Dog should of concentrated on refining what they already had with U2 - A simple but quality game that stripped away all of the bullshit whilst doing enough to separate itself from other similar games in the market. So far from the beta it just reminds me a little of Modern Warfare 2 in that it feels like naughty dog just crammed as much stuff into the game as possible without thinking how it would effect the end experience.
Surprisingly for me Epic with Gears 3 managed to do this perfectly. Take the base game from previous entries and concentrate on improving what they already have rather than what they don't have.
The last thing we need is another shooter trying hard to appeal to a wider audience by adding COD features.

The first 5 minutes of playing the beta I was screaming, THEY RUINED ITTTTTTTTTTTTTT
and then after getting used to it again and going 20-1 I was pretty content with it. I am definitely looking forward to this game.
PS. The "Cursed" power play SUCKS with noobs!!

Any mode but Co-Op is way too laggy for me, the netcode needs some serious work. Appearances of the lag/poor connection symbol every 10 seconds (and no, it's not me).
Surprised teammates can gun you down in Coop with currently little to no obvious repercussions.
Matchmaking layout is good, lots of lessons learned/influence from Bungie's work.

same issue as with killzone 3 ... they switched to MLAA
Killzone 2 = QAA (also called blur/vaseline filter), KZ3 = MLAA
Uncharted 1 & 2 = 2xAA, UC3 = MLAA
while it has it's advanteges (freeing up video ram because the CPU handles it), it also has it's disadvantages with sub pixel alasing etc.
but to be honest, even UC 1 and 2 has noticeable aliasing ... so it shouldn't bother you that much
// ok, I'm wrong, they really use FXAA ... which is even worse

Yup you're right that ND should have anticipated the amount of users that they were going to get.Shogun PaiN said:
Hey at least we're going through this in the beta and not the actual launch.
Also, I'm fairly certain ND is going to get their shit together. I just hope people don't give up on the beta after it's been live for a measly day.

lol, I hate that shit.jett said:
Played some 3 team with a gaffer as well as trying out FFA for myself to see the Yemen map (it didn't come up). 3 team is fun and FFA isn't as abysmal as it is in most MP games. What did patch 1.01 do? I could have sworn that the movement speed is a bit faster, although I may just have gotten used to it.
I'm loving this so far and I'll be playing a lot. I'm trying to get all the bonuses for the final game. Feel free to add me on PSN. Name is in my profile.

You can turn it off. For some reason the game doesn't remember it's off so you have to do it every time you boot it up. I have it off.alr1ghtstart said:
I expect people to complain about every aspect of this free beta because it's GAF, but people have gripes with the graphics? I'd agree that the UI/menus is obviously unfinished, but the image quality in-game is excellent. I'm sure it will be improved, but I'm not noticing any jaggies or anything, it's a very beautiful game.
I've only played a few matches, and at least with the ~70% that ran smoothly, I was very pleased. The only aspect of the beta that I worry might not change in the final game is the sprint. Pressing down the analog stick while running isn't comfortable, and the rest of the controls are perfect.

I've begun to use sprint more. It's pretty useful for escaping gun fire or for quickly getting the drop on someone.

We found a problem with matchmaking a couple of hours ago and a fix is on its way. Today will be a better day. Thanks for your support
we all know a fix for this.server lists.

Wow, the complaints over a beta. I'd recommend Sony not to release beta, but it's also admirable that they're willing to make the game better and take tremendous flak for showing an unfinished game. Because that's what it is. Unfinished. A beta.
I had a great time for an hour before it got DCed.

Played 2 matches (i had to leave) and they ran pretty well imo.
They need to fix the matchmaking though since it takes a while.

Played 5 matches. Really not enjoying it that much. I didn't have any lag or issues getting into games. Animation is surprisingly bad, controls don't feel very tight, graphics are nice, gunplay is lackluster. I don't know... multiplayer just feels off. Can't wait for singleplayer but I really thought this was going to be awesome. Will continue to give it a shot.

im hoping assassins creed gets a beta this year as well, that survey from last year indicates they're adding lots of new stuff to online and experimenting with what people like.
hope we get to test it out, the brotherhood beta was pretty decent. although they leave it quite late, brotherhood's was in october and game came out next month

Finally got to play for a couple of hours straight without freezing! Pretty good so far; only a couple of problems:
- I'm getting shot through walls by AI on the top siege point in the chateau map
- my options aren't saved after quitting and restarting; i have to invert my y and change audio every time

I had a bug in one game where the chest near the burnt-out upper section of Chateau wouldn't let anyone take its goods, pressing Triangle did nothing. Gah, so teasing

Happened to me too, then when I turned around I got elbowed in the face.
This is what I'm expecting from impressions:
Beginning - OMG AWESOME
After a few hours of play - It's fun but not as fun as UC2 or Im not feeling this at all. I dont like this change/that change. This, this, and this annoys me.
After a day or so of playing - Im getting used to everything and the more I play, the more I like it.
After a few days/a week of playing - Fix this shit GG! Smoke bomb exploits, matchmaking STILL sucks, clusterfucks were fun at 1st but are annoying now, get rid of this booster. Get rid of powerplays. Weapon mods are unbalanced. Lower health/bullet sponges.

Co-op arena is definitely no cakewalk, the enemies shoot rockets off like crazy, reminds me of the enemies in inFamous 2.
