Got my beta key, installed, and just booted it up. The screen is all crazy-go-nuts. Flickering and artifacts going crazy everywhere... this is the main menu screen mind you. This happen to anyone else?

One of my friends had some similar problems, but they were in game.
He updated his graphics card drivers and had no more issues.
Updated my graphics drivers (using a radeon 4870 x2) and still having sever graphics problems even on hte menu. Sucks, I was really interested in trying this out.

Welp. got it working. Kajiggered with the vid settings and something I messed with fixed it. So... any other newbies on that want to play and cut their teeth with me?

If I were you, I'd actually just jump straight into ranked 1v1. It matches you with other people roughly your level, so its not too bad. I actually won the first game I ever played, made me feel awesome until I realized it match-made.
Eh, guess I was wrong. Few minutes into a game, and everything starts flickering and tearing. Even if I put it on the lowest settings. Couldn't really find anything on their forums with anyone having similar problems or it being a known issue, so I'm SOL for the beta it seems

I have something like a 16 win streak in 1v1. Granted the first few were newbies, but after that they started putting up a fight, and I've had a few close shaves.
Probably the best and closest game I've had was one where the guy tried to pull this on me, except with bombers instead.
I had two M40 artillery pieces out, and they decimated his airfield when my recon plane got vision, but his first run took out all my buildings and I was left with a few out of ammo planes, the artillery, some M16 mobile AA, and 5 shermans. With the shermans I managed to take out his base, as he had no anti-tank left from my minor bombing sorties, and his jumbo tanks were too slow to catch me because he was off chasing the artillery.
I won on points in the end.
Another sad tale of pubbies was one game against a guy playing british. He camo'd, so I rushed AA as air attacks have the least warning time. Like clockwork a bomber takes off as my 3rd or 4th M16 or Bofors is rolling off the line, and I fend off his attack and start making tanks for a counterattack.
Then he surrenders. Gotta love pubbies that quit when their sole gambit is thwarted.
The best thing about playing new people is they don't know what recon is.
Nor do they understand why I rush a single infantry unit to every single forest on the map.
Doing that with the french is fun, with the $10 infantry. Even with recon, they're nasty buggers to dig out of tree's. Can support them with $5 AT guns to make it even worse!
* And most importantly, this is not really the end, as new surprises are coming in early 2010. I will explain these surprises as soon as it comes official.
As games developers are completely unoriginal, expect another beta of some kind in early 2010.
If this has Ubisoft's much talked about new DRM system then I for one do not welcome our new consumer-limiting overlords. As in, I will not be purchasing it until such a DRM system is removed (or is not in effect via a system like Steam).
I feel bad for Eugen, because it's not like they chose to use Ubisoft's DRM, but in capitalism you vote with your wallet.

But DoA, you're the RUSE shill, you can't quit now!
Yeah, Ubisoft's DRM scheme has completely drained any interest I might have had in their games, which sucks because I actually was interested in their games.
I feel the same way about Silent Hunter 5. I mean I know for other games you're not likely to suffer as much, but for a niche game like that where you depend on a small but loyal community, I can't say I'm expecting very good things there. The forums are pretty much filled with threads about it.
On one hand, I don't really think I'd be playing this game offline anyway, so the DRM's sillyness wouldn't affect my experience one way or the other.
Internet connection goes out you say? Well, I'm not going to be 2v2'ing with or without DRM if I can't connect to other mans.
On the other hand, it's kinda hard to vote with your wallet when you keep handing it to the ballot takers for that "one" exception. Here's hoping they get the hint with everything they're releasing shortly, and drop it.

This thread title has made my day, and now has me reminiscing in Yu-Gi-Oh nostalgia.
Good day sirs.
Lightroiper is such a Yugioh nerd, it was to be expected.

Possibilities:
* Release Date

* New Beta
* Other
