Battlefield 3 thread - Server details in opening post -

[Lethagized]

Alright guys!!

Just back from outside and checked my email.

Received beta invitation at 2.41pm lol

I guess I have fallen behind majority of forum members with beta.


Anyway how is downloading beta?

Install origin and redeem the code in the settings menu, or read your email and follow instructions in there. Simple

 

[Darg]

Agh, can't believe I still haven't got a code, just got another email that got me excited then sad

First impressions are is that you can clearly tell this is a damn beta! Lots of little bugs/glitches in the game. Gameplay is OK but the whole process of getting a game and not being able to configure it is annoying and I really cannot be bothered to keep doing that. Think I'm just gonna wait for the official game tbh.

Reload?

 

[toString]

It is as if they are using less servers than the alpha.

 

[Vulcan]

Sigh... I really hate games that force you to launch from within your browser. Disappointing tbh

Indeed.

I queued up and got down to 2nd place in the queue, but then it decided to timeout.

Yup I'm mad now! I bought on Origin (on 24/08) as I go on holiday on Thursday and just wanted to have a go!!!

Thanks EA!

I didn't pre order MOH LE.

I didn't pay full price for MOH.

I didn't pre order a BF3 server.

I didn't pre order BF3 via Origin.

Nor did I try and get a discount to bring the price in line with normal retail prices.

I still haven't pre ordered BF3

Yet I bought MOH standard edition from Steam for a tenner and now I have an early access BF3 beta key.

Downlaoding now at 3MB/s

Big lol at all the nerd rage in this thread.

[mothermachine]

browsers are also CPU and RAM hogs, even if in a small way. I always run games with nothing unnecessary running.

 

[Colasanto]

Anti-damn-climax! Went to launch, and need the beta drivers installed. BRB!

How do I join the TFU server?

 

[ViRuS2k]

DOnt waste your time trying to play this crapcluster....
i have been trying to play the game for about 1 half hours now and i cant.
every time i try to join a server i get this error :

Your active soldier is not ready for duty.
Please choose a PC soldier in the top menu.

and also there is not enough servers to keep up demand, all server are full.

Similar here. Though I didn't buy the terrible MoH game just to get a key That would indeed be quite nerdy.

You don't until the game actually comes out.
