I played a couple matches and though I do agree with saying it feels stiff, I found the actual shooting of a gun to feel really good. On top of that both times I was in a squad where the leader was doing something; he kept updating objectives, setting rally points and all that jazz which made it incredibly fun. Keep playing it.

I try to put this into different sections.  1. When I first got to the main screen, I chose my faction and went to play the game. I wanted to look around the menu and just well, explore the game. See how everything worked, the weapons, etc, etc. But if I stayed in the menu for longer than 30 seconds, it would say I was disconnected from the server. I tried this about, 3 or 4 times. Already I was angry because I couldn't see what guns I was using, I couldn't customize my loadout, see the controls, or anything! Finally, as soon as I got to the main menu and hit start, I quickly hit deploy and started looking for games. I wasn't even allowed to play supression (TDM) without getting to a certain rank or something! So I had to play sabotage, I think this is where I will start my next section.  2. I joined sabotage, and the game quickly started. I wasn't expecting amazing graphics, but these graphics are flatout terrible! I felt like going up to my T.V to make sure I was still playing my PS3! It was a 64 vs. 64 game, pretty much the size of 2 games or Resistance 2. The graphics shouldn't have been that bad. And not only was it the pure detail that was awful, the movements are so robot like. When you hit the aim button BOOM! You're looking down your sights/scope. Your hands don't even move! The gun sights appear in front of your face! And when you reload, you cock the bullet, which causes the gun to move back, and then it pretty much teleports back into normal position. The movements are TERRIBLE!  3. The gameplay was awful, not only in the aspect of controls that were clunky and wierd, it didn't feel like I was playing in a game with over 100 people in it. It felt like a game of Call of Duty. I actually wanted to play my old CoD4 copy, just to feel the feeling of playing a good FPS! The controls for weapon swithing were EXTREMELY close to Battlefield: Bad Company's or 1943's, exept the other controls were different. The other controls (not just weapon switching) felt fine with the shoulder button weapons switching. It just didn't work to well with M.A.G.   I'm sorry if you don't agree with me, but I had very high expectations for this game (that was probably my first problem) because Zipper is my favorite developer.

beta. seriously...beta. "

You can't change THAT much from a beta to a finished product, besides server issues and such, which they were testing. If you expect a dramatic change in graphics or animations from a beta stage to a finished product you are expecting too much. The only game to do that was Borderlands, and honestly if they hadn't changed all the textures that game would have been baaaad. But I'm getting off topic here. "

Do any of you read the intro to the beta?  "The beta DOES NOT represent the finished product in anyway and is used for promotional use only" (something like that).  
 Who ever said that tiny 1.8gb BETA was equal to the the finished product in any way?!

I do.  I think the texture in the graphics is good?  I play on a 1080p HDTV but that shouldn't matter?  Yes, I love Uncharted 2,  the graphics are good even though surprisingly running on 720p.  "

I doubt there'll be many changes now apart from server-side stuff, but, if you check out my thread in the MAG forums you'll see why I vastly disagree.
 
I do hope they iron out some of the animation etc, but that hasn't really harmed my experience at all.

Id have to agree with most every thing the TC said, and its a beta is no longer an excuse not when its to be released this month.

Uhh ya they can, and they do, thats why its beta. Have you ever played betas before, because I've seen massive changes. I was in the origional World of Warcraft beta, its nearly a completely different game once it launched. "

I haven't had any issues with the game except how hard it is to differentiate friend from foe (seriously, the little dot above your friend's head should be a bit more noticeable, not the dark blue it currently is.).
 
Don't know what to tell you. The graphics look fine to me; I don't know why people keep complaining about them. A bunch of graphics whores.

I wish I'd read this before downloading the damned thing. I didn't bump into any server issues but the game itself was underwhelming in every aspect.

All this bashing goes to show how spoilt we are as gamers. All of a sudden after Uncharted 2 came out, everyone is expecting the next game to be better than the last ,the graphics to be better etc. In reality this isnt going to happen.
 
I know that  much of the flaws cant be changed from now until the full game comes out, but what you have to realise is that the beta is only 1.8gig. You dont kow what they are holding back on, a lot of people are full on bashing a beta even thou on the first or second screen it says that all aspects of the game will be better including graphics upon release.
 
I know they have only released a part of the game in the beta so more space will be needed for the other maps and game modes, but there is 28gig space on a blu ray disc so there is a lot of room there for improvements if needed, plus updates.
 
Another thing that most people seem to forget is that this game is the first of its kind on a console, so even the devolopers are learning as they go along. Gamers these days seem to be setting ridicilous standards for games. Its not just about the gameplay anymore, not just about the enjoyment.
 
i find this game fun and smart. You have to work as a team or you will have no chance. I for one cant wait for the beta to end and the game to come out so that only the people who want to play the game will and there will be less bitching about it and only people who enjoy playing it will be playing it.
