woah^^, less then 11 hours for me, here in Germany... Does anybody know where I can download it in Steam? Will it be unlocked in "my games" ? has anybody experience?

Soldat Mylo is waiting for pwning you all to hell, muahahahahhahahaha

Mylo

Edit: I preordered the game with steam which promised me the beta...

The beta unlocks at some unGodly hour on the 28th based on Stateside time. Which means, I think, you'll have to be up pretty late tonight to get access to the beta Mylo. You should just be able to install it from your Games tab in Steam when it's ready, although don't expect there to be many servers to download it from when it goes live. It's not going to be like MW2, but I am pretty sure that a few people will be jumping to get into the game.

If I am correct, the Steam servers here open the beta at 6.00 pm today... so in nearly 3 hours I am ready to download... I am really hoping that I will get it without much trouble since the betakey is already included in the download... We will see^^

Maybe I will see you tonight on the battlefield

When I said trouble I meant in terms of there being active servers at Steam available to download it to your comp. Popular games fux up Steam on release dates.

I hope so ^.^

I'll be there... tomorrow night .

Any working download links? All of the links I have found were down

Vid from the beta, by DICE:



You can see a number of weapons in action here including the F2000, an M60 (which doesn't seem to have any recoil at all ), an M14, the AK-74u, the M203, what seems to be an M24, and a cool-looking shotgun. Again some strange animations though it looks slightly better overall. The most important one in the whole game though, the bolt-cycle animation on a bolt-action sniper rifle, looks pretty nifty .

Ok this is fucking pathetic, there are no servers available, it takes 5 minutes to connect to the 'join now' option and when you do play you end up doing the same thing 6 times due to the lag. It had better sort itself out soon.

Twitter says: "AtomicGamer is now hosting the PC Beta Client: http://bit.ly/8Zdbqz" i.e. this: tried that?

Apart from the lack of servers I do love this game. So much better than COD.

HK slap?

I havent forgiven them for making it one of the worst guns in the game
[/quote]It's the way you reload an MP5 (or G3). You pull back the bolt, put the little handle in the slot, refresh the mag and then slap the handle so it slams back forward.

That's not a different weapon, it looks a hell of a lot like an MP5 (with a railed front end and the sliding stock). I could be wrong, but it looks a lot like one. And I'm halfway through downloading the demo for the xbox, now.

[/quote]I'm not sure - the grip seems like it was built-in and even if it wasn't, it sure is one weird RIS conversion of an MP5, then.

The VFG, you mean? It does look like it's built into the frontend, but that could be part of the RIS system. And though the sights are weird, I think it is an MP5 (I've also seen very similar rail kits like that for airsoft MP5's). And it's got the MP5 charging handle, which helps my suspicion.

EDIT: looking at the video description on youtube, it is, in fact, an airsoft MP5 with a strange rail kit.

Played it, blew my mind, now patiently waiting for the full game
(and goddamn, seems the Garand is a Bf veterns weapon)
My first kill was at the start of my first game while I was in the parachute

I also played it, it was rather awesome, will be playing more tomorrow!

I'm glad i pre-ordered it, can't wait till its released
