Many people have been complaining about the lack of polish thats been applied to the Battlefield 3 beta, and thats most definitely putting it kindly.
People have been furious by the amount of bugs that they have seen throughout the game, obviously not realizing that DICE will be at least 5 builds ahead of the beta version.
For those of us that do understand the development process, well also realize that a lot of the fixes laid out below, were probably already fixed before the beta was even released, but they simply werent in the beta build of the game which no doubt already got sent off to first parties (ala Microsoft/Sony).
Heres the list of changes that have been made:
A SELECTION OF CHANGES FROM OPEN BETA TO FINAL, PART 1
(Not a complete list for up to date news, visit the News section in Battlelog)
* Fixed occasional client crash when reviving.
* Fixed killcam showing glitched area under map if your killer is dead.
* Issue with spawning on dead squad mates fixed.
* Fixed a bug where shooting at a moving enemy could cause more than the intended amount of damage.
* Crosshairs for shotguns have been replaced with a new, thinner, art.
* A subtle low health screen effect has been added.
* Tweaked scores of Medals and Service Stars.
* Tweaked the Rank progression.
* Pushing prone on console will not play the animation twice.
* Fixed loss of Squad Leader after EOR at some times.
* Framerate stability fixes.
* The 3D spotting icons has been tweaked to better match the targets visibility. Icons will show frequently less on mostly obscured targets.
* Fixed issue with crosshair disappearing after round transition.
* Fixed issue with crosshair disappearing after trying to deploy while the countdown timer still active.
* Squad list now shows specializations chosen, VOIP activity and dead squad mates.
* Non working options in squad menu fixed: Private flag and Switch Teams.

To all of the people complaining, Betas do not represent the final product and if you knew the dev process you would know that.
Also DICE has to do server checks and tests so at times they have to restart the servers. So please be patient.

They are different types of shooters. Battlefield takes more of a serious approach and Call of Duty is more of an arcade shooter. They appeal to different people so that comment is very arrogant.

Im shocked about how many idiots fail to realize what a beta even is. All these idiots are like "Theres too many bugs in the beta so im not getting the game". The purpose of a beta is too expose and fix the bugs! If these people are that moronic, im relieved that they're not getting the game anymore.
