VigSniper101 204	Posted - 2012.08.23 12:22:00 - [1] - Quote Disclaimer first: anyone whose seen me post know lm usually pretty positive....so with that out of the way We just got a influx of new testers vis Ps Plus...and what happened...we cant even test. I think lve averaged about 1-2 games in an hour session, due to not being able to connect, servers are full[thou l never actually see any servers listed..curse you Instant Battle]...and if you do get in a game its usually Ambush. All the great things added in this build...and the new testers cannot even try it out. Not the best impression, especially when word of mouth[or game forums], is what will get people to come play...or stay away in droves. Ive personaly been hyping this game to my friends on Plus for awhile and they were excited...then not so. Not due to the game, but not being able to even try it out with any frequency. I hope there is a fix coming ASAP so the new guys and girls can really see whats here and get the word out....cause it is a great game thats going to get better...we just need to be abe to test/play it on a more stable level. P.S: Any Plus members please fill free to leave your comments on what youve seen so far. This is the first meda review lve seen on this Build...take from it what you will; Joystig Previews Dust514 Beta

Being in Asia, when I did random instant battles in Asia I had almost no bugs and zero freezes or reset crashes. That being said, when I played in teams I had bugs and freezes almost every two or three matches. I am not sure if it was because these matches where in US/EU or if because I was in a made team, but it was a very different experience. I hope our PS Plus friends have had a better experience and are willing to give the game another chance. Id hope it was due to the US/EU server...l havent tried teams out...mainly due to the lack of being abte to play.

Except being forced to play ambush over and over becomes failbush real fast. I gave up on this build for CS:GO. Will try it again when its actually working as intended. Im suffering thru it, actually got 4 games in a row, and only 2 were Ambush...granted 1 Skirmish match ended about 5 seconds after l joined. Beta. Tester, we live to suffer. Its the impact of this build that new people got invited to that concerns me more that us silly older testers slamming our heads against the wall or taking relief elsewhere:) Oh...and how is CS:CO by the way, lm kinda tempted myself.

Whether the number of people who might've had a server full bug, invalid fit bug, disconnect from game bug, then bad hit detection and game forces a PS3 reset series of bad events is a significant number is anyone's guess. My point exactly, you invite friends over to see your new "toy"...and it doesnt even work or no one even gets a go.....may stop them coming by next time.

NDA, remember? I think that maybe redundant now; Joystiq Previews Dust514 Beta I should have put that in the OP...will remedy that now.
