Im liking the game so far not the map so much , can someone tell me how to select melee when on a horse? all i seem to be able to do is have a rifle how do i select the sword? I assume im missing something obvious
Downloaded and had a go at it. Thought for a beta it was very good indeed. Graphics on dx 12 were very very good. :)
13.2 million players participated in that BF1 open beta.
There's the Frostbite/Dice reputations working.
Incredible!
Few game developers produce the quality (especially at launch) or have the guts to release open betas. Dice/Frostbite and ID software do.
Do you think there will be something so wrong with BF1 at release that will make you kick yourself for pre ordering it?

IMHO the "do you feel lucky punk?" question doesn't apply here :).
I don't think pre-ordering or getting it on release day will make a difference. If there's a problem, it is what it is. Pre-ordered or not.
Pre-ordering does not necessarily mean purchasing it in advance. You are just getting in virtual line instead of lining up in the store. Your credit card will be charged when it is shipped or released. So you can still cancel it anytime if you change your mind before the release date.
I dont pre order as a rule i feel it encourages developers to release unfinished games (look at BF4 it was MONTHS before that was fixed) I dont think for one second BF1 will be released bug free , we only got to play one map in the beta but apart from a few glitches and some balancing issues i thought it was pretty good and its 60hz tick rate at launch which should help with the trade kills that shafted BF4. Performance wise SLI wasnt working but i was getting 80 to 120 fps on 1 980ti at 1440p and all at ultra so its pretty well optimised although it does seem to punish rigs with low end cpu's according to some benchmarks , hopefully that will be sorted before release. All this said i thought the bf4 beta was good and look how that turned out I mean now its pretty much spot on but its taken a while. (years )
The official BF1 PC specs are out now. A little hefty on the minimum processor, indeed.
