This.

Also MW3 multiplayer at COD XP was the demo, not the beta so the multiplayer was completed (unless IW made a couple of changes in regards to feedback) after COD XP.

BF3 beta as stated numerous times is an older build and more for testing the servers.

Bugs seen in the beta are most likely already fixed in the final version.

Here's some good information about it:

When a new game is created or updated, there are several stages in development before the product can be sold in the commercial marketplace. You might remember our Alpha Trial from July which was the first stage, in which the game is tested by software testers and gamers. A beta version is the name for the second stage of software testing.

 

The beta version of a software release is considered to be a preview. It has most of the standard features, but is not yet ready for wide release or sale. During this point, the studio will collect feedback from users about the product's usability — what they like and what should be changed — before the game´s wide release. A beta version of a game can be either a closed beta, which is limited to a specific group of users, or an open beta, which is available for the general public to use.

 

Yeah, heaven forbid they release a beta that worked, shame on them testing their game, shame on them indeed

Xbox 360 Battlefield 3 has hi-res texture pack on second disc

Optional install on Xbox 360 Battlefield 3 enhances graphics.

 

The Xbox 360 version of Battlefield 3 will let users stream higher resolution textures by installing content found on the game's second disc, DICE has revealed.

 

"There's a voluntary install on the 360," said Battlefield 3 producer Patrick Liu speaking to GamerZines yesterday.

 

"I think Rage did it as well, where you can install content to stream higher res textures.

 

"We're pushing that technology to the limit, and compared to our competitors, I would argue that we're the best looking game."

 

According to Liu, the game's single-player, co-op and multiplayer are also split up between the two discs, although he wouldn't confirm which modes are present on which disc.

 

It's not yet known whether the PS3 version of Battlefield 3 will also include the same hi-res textures on the Blu-ray disc.

 

We went hands-on with both versions of the game yesterday, and in terms of visuals, the Xbox 360 version certainly took the edge over the PS3 version.

 

Battlefield 3 launches on Xbox 360, PlayStation 3 and PC on October 28th.

I am not bothered in the slightest by "High Res Textures" the graphics will be the same, the only reason the 360 needs this feature is because its on two disks while the PC and PS3 aren't
