Preorder was for early release beta. Today is the free for all.

On my third attempt to load the map now. Loading, loading, loading, black screen, loading, loading.

That happens to me, I thought it was my old PC!

I've fixed it. PB needed updating.

Also you should update DirectX. Program Files (x86)/Origin Games/BF4 Beta/Installer/DirectX/redist/DXSetup.exe

I'm not sure what my framerate is due to the MSI Afterburner overlay not working for some reason, but my graphics options are left on auto, textures Ultra, everything else High and occlusion set to SSAO. Game runs like a dream, even using some old AMD drivers that aren't even the latest officials.

So I re-downloaded the OPEN beta client and it's still having the same problem downloading. The Gods of battlefield do not want me to play it. Curses.

Problem downloading?

God, this game is a jerky mess. How does anybody play this shit? I have to have my graphics set to low and it looks and plays worse than 1.6! And meanwhile, I can barely see any enemies yet they know right where I am, no matter where I hide. We gave up CS:GO for this? UGH.

Yessir... Goes to 99% then back to 83% and then gives me an error to try again. If this happens with the main game I'm going to lose my ***** in the **** and the **** right in **** mother **** eric cartman **** rainbow catfish.

I'd stop the download and delete the BF4 folder in Origin Games and then try again.

You have to remember this is a beta and so are the supported graphics drivers. Plus this game is quite a bit more demanding than CSGO lol.

also if you are running on 32 instead of 64 it just wont work.

Maybe I'll try the demo on xbox too just for kicks. LOL!
