When learning how to fight in Merhojld, I get nothing but black screen. I talk to the guy to fight, put up my money then black screen with BG noise. The game locks up.
A view bugs, which I would still call minor bugs… that’s why I post them here…
-
The “sick bastard” quest seems to be still broken. Spoke to everyone, was in the larder and so on… can’t convince the bailiff, that it was a food poisoning. Had to save within the quest, since I wanted to eat something…
-
A new thing in the “sick bastard” quest is, that when I talked to the fisherman and the Jerry’s wife, their answer didn’t appear. Could neither hear them or read them as subtitles… It seems to work sometimes, because when I reloaded, I could a least hear Jerry’s wife…
-
Talking to the farmers wife on the Kolben estate while looking after Timmy, I couldn’t read my own speech possibilities. Only some file-name jibberish… Couldn’t hear it either…
-
Being in the Merhojet camp speaking to the swordmaster and wanting some Training I suddenly had an almost black screen. Only the HUD was still visible. Had to Alt+Ctrl+Del…
-
The fight against the Runt guys in front of Reekys cave only endet after I looted all of them… before I couldn’t sleep in the cave because I was supposed to be still fighting, even though all of them were dead…
-
The Lighting at dawn seems to be worse, than in Alpha. Looks someone fades the sun in in big steps… doesn’t seem smothe anymore.
7: I managed to leasrn from the swordmaster once, afterwards the Text appeared, as if I had successfull faught in a normal fight… (“He didn’t see it comming… here is your Money…”)
Hope these comments help…

When you start the first battle on arena in Merhojed (easiest one, with armor, me with sword and shield, opp with shortsword), the screen i just black and the battle doesn’t load 
I had classis bug in Talmberk - chickens and hens going through barrels like nobody business 
I can also confirm that sunset isn´t very smooth, it felt like it went from day to full night in about 60 seconds 
Resting in the camp (just waiting for daylight) - guards wants me to pay fine for no reason it seems.
Start combat training - black screen, only killing process helped (waited for about 10 minutes hoping it would solve itself)
After resting in camp - guard approached me about me injuring somebody - I did injure somebody, but that was on the empty field/road and nobody had a chance to see me - and it was in Talmberk, not in Merhojed where I got arrested
After this talk I can´t talk to master swordsman.
I don’t know where to post it: Just small notice regarding the post-game survey: what about saving it for each player, so we could just update previous info, instead of sending new and new versions again and again?
ya, the whole combat seems a bit buggy. seems like you only exit combat when you loot your enemies atm. as you dont kill the trainer and wont loot him,seems like the guys in camp will get upset cuz youre still in combat with the trainer… seems weird tho^^
Same here 
Crime system seems little weird.
- Bying shovel from the tavern guy and discussing price triggered crime as I left shopping menu (i may had stolen apple, before) … anyway, perhaps shovel is not needed for digging Hynek’s “cache” and it can be found in Kolben’s farm. Price is completely off (12gr or so)
- When I died for killing half of the village and loaded game, I had crime icon.
- It seems that talking to sleeping people in the night is capital crime
Persons may be stuck when I load game
Quest sort of weird: - I found Hynek, got all information, met band searching for him, escaped from fight running down and calling horse (which seems legit). When I drove horse around quarry I got attacked by random soldier, escaped again (diplomat, untrained in fight). Other soldiers are fine. I have no idea why he attacked me.
Graphics: - morning fog in light rain produces weird rays of light which seems to go from woods (perhaps opposite direction of sun)
- transition between rain and sun is not smooth
Sleep: - can’t sleep or skip time for unknown reason
Added later (21:07 CET): - when stealing vegetable from bags and baskets E key which should open them closes them instead. They are all opened prior to theft.
Looks like there is a bug when runnig away from a fight. The program thinks you are still in combat. In combat you can´t sleep…
Which is perfect. Cause you have to kill 3 guys chasing Ricky, perhaps random soldier near quarry, possibly two cumans if they spot you when you go one of two ways you are told to. All of that without any stamina/strength skill or armor or possibly without any previous experience with combat system at first 30 minutes of the gameplay
I’m considering the need to fight or run for your life that early and time limited quest the design flaw.

Please be wary, that beta starts somewhere mid game. In released version you will have probably quite a lot of combat experience and equipment, so it won´t be such a big deal.
And if you pay any attention, you can notice that there is second quest which clearly says - GO GET SOME COMBAT TRAINING.
I can’t open the archers ahest in the Merhojet camp -> crash to desctop… several times.
The same appears, when I try to open Reekys treasure in his fathers garden…
EDIT: Now I even have CTDs once I open a sack full of apples… and my horse is sleeping… at least it walks even slower than I am, when I try to gallop… with all These CTDs, the BETA is getting pretty annoying… sadly…
It also seems, that a lot of NPCs, that had some kind of a dayly rhythm in ALPHA have completly lost it. The soldiers in the camp don’t sleep anymore… they are standing around all night and you can sleep n every bed you like…
And one thing is desperately missing. We NEED a “DELETE” button for the save-games…
Well - I am almost two hours into the military camp - accomplished nothing 
I started game -> ran straigth to camp to get training. Saved here
Started training fight - our swords were big red balls, apparently missing model or smthing
Loaded game - for no apparent reason, all the guards here were attacking some guy with mace and shield - I have no idea why, but they killed him.
I tried to loot him - that alerted guards which accused me of stealing - I tried to pay a fine, but at that moment another guard accused me - before I could do anything, third guard accused me, and in the meantime other guards started attacking me.
Well no training for me
Unplayable for me. Keeps crashing.

Its very far from being Beta as far as performance goes. Beta supposed to be almost finished game, just polishing bugs.
Don’t let activision and EA soil your idea of what a beta truly is, they use it for marketing. Their betas have already been tested. KC is doing a real beta, and the backers are the testers.
Alpha: incomplete + bugs
Beta: complete + bugs

well, seems legit to me, apples looked different back then^^
This is a limitation of the screen space reflections (real time local reflections) that the Cryengine is using.
