    Im pretty sure someone else used them by now :p Had to preorder mine since it was extremely difficult finding a key after the first bunch. Beta ends in 18 days i think so enjoy it while it lasts, then patience for a week till the actual game release :)

    i have to figure out why i cannot force sli on this game and see if the logitech G35 headset gets surround out of it as well.

    I wish I could actually try this game before buying it. Played the free beta on 360 and loved it, but wanted to see how it would run on my system.

    If anyone wants a beta key, pm me.

    I have an extra one, but I can't guarantee that it'll work...

    yes, i can confirm the g35 works :D

    the only thing i cannot seem to get a grasp on is what sound options to set the game to. in hifi the LFE is really kicked up and sort of drowns out the surround sound whereas the home cinema mode has less LFE and oomph but maintanes better surround sound fidelity from what i am experiencing. what is your feedback on this?

    i have not gotten sli to work it simply will not force it on which is very wierd. i have never seen this before in a game. it don't matter because i am getting very smooth framerates on all high settings with 1920x1200 res on one gpu :D

    the only thing is that from what i have read the texture quality is only medium for the beta and cannot be set higher regardless if you do set it higher so i will definately be looking forward to having sli active when the game launches.

    There still a lot of glitches that are not going to be fixed for the beta, but they already fixed them for the retail game. Im suffering from flickering shadows/water and lots of other things at the moment (crossfire issue) also if i set shadows lower the game just crashes (fun fun).

    Havent played with the audio settings yet, waiting for the retail game to come out before i start tweaking things :p

    I have the water glitch too. It sounds like a Crossfire-related issue.

    It is, if you disable catalyst a.i you will notice that it stops :p

    They fixed it in the retail version as well so no worries there either :)
