You don't have the option to customize squads in the Beta which is let down. I'm pretty sure they will implement it for the full release. As of now you can only join as a party into the same game, if your lucky you'll be on the same team.

We will have to see if they implement squad customization in-game, today they tweeter that squad setup (as well as voice chat) would only be done in battlelog, which is really stupid. Here's hoping that they change that, in regards to the second tweet that I posted on the precious page of posts.

Betas are supposed to have issues. It is not the final game. Don't pay the $60 if you don't want to. If it frustrates you then fine, show them with your money, how you feel.
They should have said from the start how old the code was. The letter that was posted should have been required reading to start the beta, heck even put a test in there to make sure people read it.
I will wait till the final game is out to decide if it is a game worth spending a lot of time with. I already ordered it and will not cancel my order, because I am having fun with the beta.

Lets let the final product speak for itself.

I have not played the Beta yet, I was wondering what is the opinion on GPU required to play 1920x1080 at max setting?

Thanks
How is gameplay, a bit laggy I can imagine at that FPS or what?
I'm assuming your running this on the Beta, the final product is much more demanding.

There is no way to tell that the final product will be more demanding, It may be more optimized and might run a little better. But for now all we can use is the beta for reference. Caspian Border 64 only had around a 5-7fps difference than metro 32 on my system. I thought that it was pretty good for the scale and 2x the amount of players with added vehicles.

BTW in case anyone is interested in how much a server costs, our clan was looking into a 64 player BF3 server and they are going for $87 a month. Pretty steep.

I was certain I saw it on there blog, couldn't find it when I went back. I read that destruction, and overall graphics are not %100, but can't find the source. I'm sure we will see a increase in graphics in the final product, IMO.
Overall I expected the graphics to be a better. Operation Metro, the part outside the metro seems not all that great but inside the metro looks nice. I haven't played Caspian Border yet so don't know how that is like.

I thought the exact same thing, I think because you get a much better example of the lighting and shadows in the tunnels. When I first started I though the textures were low quality, the foliage was rough looking. Overall looking at it now though I'm much more impressed. I think they held back a bit on what the engine can do as well. I think it will be even better on release. My SLI 470's run it without a hick-up on ultra @ 1920x1080.

The server I'm looking at renting is about $10 more but they don't oversell their boxes and they deliver premium bandwidth/cpu cycles. The thing that will make or break a 64 player server is the actual server, its bandwidth, and how many other servers are on that particular machine. Sure your client needs to run at light speed too, but lets say all clients were had the same hardware. You would see that you get what you pay for in the renting arena

The best interpretation of Operation Metro

yes and no. You cant create a squad in the game period. You can create a squad in battle log but that only gets you into the same game. You may end up on separate teams as your battlelog squad. You will be lucky if you are on the same team. Extremely rare that you will be on the same in-game squad. so basically it is pointless to even have squads if they follow through with this.
pretty simple fix that will either make or break their sales imo.
