Just seeing if any players from the Marik FWLM TS server fancy getting together for trying out the beta of the new star wars bf 3 which starts 09:00 BST. Download load will be available on wednesday which is a BIG 11gig boooooom.

Only getting it for being a stars wars fan going back and remembering seeing the first film back in 1977. Love the looks and in game sound effects so far :)

I just tried it out myself and I am meh about it so far. It didn't ******* away like I expected it to but I only played once and you start with only your pistol. You can unlock more like the Jet Pack and grenades if you play a bit but it will take a few battles.

Hopefully my experience with it becomes better as I unlock stuff.

Edit. So you can't put blow and me next to each other. So replace ******* with "It didn't knock my socks off". There fixed the censorship.

11 gig... is big? I have Alien Isolation which sometimes thing 40 gig.

I am not part of your team or anything, and I am not getting BF3 till I know it's good.


Well, then you aren't a true Star Wars fan. Who cares if BF3 is good or not? It's Star Wars, bruh.

the 11 gig download is an open beta available to everyone, costing nothing (except download time)

PC game version.

The game looks and sounds great.

However, the game mode that they have for the players to try out is Walker Assault, which is broken as all get out. The Imperials always win.

Also, they have a truely annoying control scheme where aircraft and ground vehicles use the same sensitivity setting, which doesn't work at all. I need the ground controls set to 15% to get good aim, yet 80-100% for aircraft. I have to stop, go into the options, reset the controls, and then spawn the star fighter in order to get it to work. Even then the most common way to shoot down an aircraft is with guided missiles, which was only ever done once...in the crappy pre-quels....and it was a droid warhead that made no damn sense in the first place.

So, yeah. I'm not as impressed as I wanted to be by the game.
