Got mine from flipkart, today. Sweet. Sad that I already completed the SP campaign.
^ Switch to "Custom" in the graphics menu and set your own settings.

Not really happy with the critics and few gamers dissing out the Single Player for being too easy, short and more importantly - being similar to Call of Duty's SP .
Played the SP for about an Hour, reached the middle of the second level(Fault Line).
Things that I liked, the graphics(obviously), sound is mind blowing(wish I had a 7.1 setup), huge levels, and the health is kinda low compared to the other military shooters(on Hard difficulty), 4-5 bullets and you're down!
Its all Linear for most of the time, and a lot of scripted sequences, which are not bad at all IMO. But it does not force you to a stay in a single place, probably because of the bigger level size.
To sum it up, the most balanced Single Player campaign for a military shooter till now, and will probably remain so, coz mw3 will be the same thing again. Play it on hard, you ll understand what I mean
Yet to start the MP(shame on me! )

Really nice game, as I said, I just love the realistic surroundings of audio, especially on War mode. Graphics are great too. Playing on Normal, I'd say its definitely harder than other same category SP shooters out there. Not that much hard on PC. So far I am really impressed.
On the 'Comrade' level now, don't know how long to finish....I hope it's long enough to keep me entertained

Finally after having this thing installed on my system over a week, got a chance to click on the icon. Played 10-15 minutes of the SP. Some initial impressions
*The cut scenes are impressive and are integrated within the action.
*The face and character decals are extremely enhanced -- I could see green eye pigment. Which is just amazing.
*The game play is fluid and quite close to real life play.
*Team movement is good and coordinated.
*Weapon recoil is slightly less, and they do not feel that meaty. Though I have not encountered many so early in the game.
*Music is excellent and has a pulse.
*The FB engine really really shines. Buildings are detailed and finite.
*The AI seems watered down, similar to Cry 2 -- but again too early for me to have any commitments here.
The game is not using my first accelerator at all. Guess will need to move to 11.9 & CAP 10.0 tomorrow. Uses a whooping 2.2GB of hardware RAM though. Amazing.

if you enable 'high' in 'Graphics Quality', which AA options are chosen by default?

High preset will set PostAA to high and DeferredAA to none.
New driver fixes the open beta issues. The game was out last week. So, I guess they fixed the issues and would have submitted it for WHQL. I guess it will take another update to fix the issues with the retail version of the game..
