I'm really enjoying this beta! A lot of fun, except for one major issue....I can't stay connected to a game for more than 4-5 minutes. :mad::mad::mad:

I keep getting disconnected, or the lag is so bad I move halfway across the map and get warped back to the beginning.

Anyone else always get disconnected? Are there ports I need to open? I tried throwing the PS3 behind a DMZ, no dice. :confused:

Sorry to hear that. For some strange reason I always get disconnected after 10mins, but it works fine after that. I've never experienced lag either.

Maybe it's just PSN is acting weird atm?

By the way, I've played a bit today and it seems people really really got better at this game. Medics constantly healing/reviving people, engineers repairing tanks, recons calling mortar strikes. It was quite competitive :D

Sounds awesome! I'm having fun as a medic, but it's tough to level up when I'm only in a game for three minutes and then have to join another one costantly. :(

That's strange mate, mine has been acting fine and I'm playing from Australia with American hosts.

The fact that the issue persisted with the PS3 in the DMZ is extremely strange, you don't happen to have a spare router you can give a go?

And just like that, I prove how awesome I am:
