Guys is it necessary to have the new 13.10 beta 2 drivers to play BF4 Beta ?

I am not sure if anyone has answered this for you. It is not required to have the 13.10 beta.. I am running the game on 13.9 suit

yup sure ... I can play on 45 fps with high-ultra settings at 1080p so I am sure you will do great .

It doesnt even look as great as BF3 even on ultra ... but it is a beta so eh ...

P.S. i have seen people having far less problems with the games are the ones with AMD GPU's :D :))

As its just on beta, please dont assume on graphics front just yet.. As per the trend BF3 beta was far more worse looking when compared to BF BC2 version (which was running hot then).

The graphics is somethnig that we can leave it to the final release

downloaded the beta....why is it taking so much time to load me into a game?

also i am getting good fps in high-ultra settings but the game is stuttering a lot...what can i do for this?

There are issues with beta run.. The game crashes as well. I have experienced a crash once but my frnd gets crashing every now and then.
Stuttering is a common problem too and it loooks to be some typical beta issues.. shortguns are highly OP and each hit from the shortgun almost gives the feel of an earthquake

My take on the overall game -

Pros::
1) Maps (particularly in domination mode) looks interesting with lot of nice strategic gameplay elements.
2) Running has improved a lot as it is difficult to run and gun at the same time as pressing shift doesnt insta boost speed and instead we pickup speed gradually.
3) Battlepacks are a nice addition, missions make it competitive among frns for long lasting and replayable appeal.
4) Levolution is fantastic. Even the rubles of a destruction are destraction enough to slow someones movement and even can be used as covers.
5) Assists of 90+ damage is treated as kills.. Amazing.. now we dont miss those kills with 99 assists as in BF3

Cons::
1) Guns arent properly powered. Might be a beta issue.
2) There is a learning curve (though short for the seasoned veterans) for even the veterans of BC3.
3) Guns and maps are favouring Assault at the moment, engineers and supports looks like being ignored. May be maps added further in release and the weapon loads will make it better.
4) Knifing is yet to be refined. Hoping to see it cleaner in the final release.

i saw some Indian bf4 servers hosted in Mumbai...it showed ping as 21 and also some Singapore servers showed pings as 90 - 120...these pings were highlighted in green in the battlelog or w/e it is called...are these pings correct? from which ping the game will start to delay?

i was able to join the servers but as my game was stuttering a lot, so i couldn't say if there was any delay or not...

The pings are obviously correct.. You can see them ingame too when u press tab to see the teams.

Can you explain the "delay" you are talknig about ?? If you meant it to be lag, you can check or experience it yourself while in game. If you are stuck briefly or you see the enemy spotted in flashes, both in mini map or directly can be termed as a lag.

Usually pings till 200 are said to be pretty stable on BF3/4 games but anything above 300 shows its true colors of slight lag to bigger lags/latency issues.

Yes, I am talking about the lag which happens when you have a high ping with the server..

the problem with my game is that when I just stand still it shows 45-60 fps..but when I move around,try to shoot,zoom through sniper etc fps drops to 5 and then comes back again to 45-60 and this is happening constantly and the game is totally unplayable for me....i changed all the settings to low and still i am getting this same problem...even in high-ultra it show 45-60 fps and goes to 5 fps

Try updating your GC drivers.
The problem you are refering to is nothing to do with the stuttering (stuttering happens to all of us - its the beta issue) or the lag. Its an FPS drop issue mainly due to your config. I reckon your CPU is also playing a part in this as i3 effectively has only 2 cores and I think BF4 is looking for 4 core processors. If its the GC driver issues, it will be rectified if you install the latest drivers.

Overall, AMD cards are better for BF games and has been performing better on all the multiplayers in BF series so far.

Watch out with the nvidia beta drivers, it fried my graphics card forever the last time I tried it. You never know.

Even I'm getting constant stuttering from 85 fps to 5 fps. This has nothing to do with your GPU or CPU config. Apparently the issue is being caused by Windows 7. The beta has a bug which increases your CPU load to 100% for Win & users. Win 8 users are not facing such issues. So for me, currently the game is unplayable. :(

Dude.. some words looks so fancy that you feel like using them without even knowing what it means.

your FPS drop is called frame rate drop and stuttering doesnt mean that.. OMG..
