Does anyone have the installer for Origin? I have the BF3 beta files but need to install Origin

This is currently down - http://store.origin.com/

Will I need a key to play or is it open beta now?

I'm guessing a lot of people who don't like it logged on, died 10 times in a row then quit

Most likely

It's definitely got a learning curve regarding aim/recoil compared to bc2 (not that i like comparing it to bc2) some people probably aren't giving it enough of a chance

You dont need a key,

Once you put the BF3 files into the Origin Games/Battlefield 3 beta folder all you need to do is load up origin, click store, free games tab, bf3 beta and let it install.

Btw whoevers spamming this thread with stupid screenshots stop it, all we need is passwords for servers

Not really supprising, your basically downloading the whole game, but most of it is obviously nerfed for the time being, because its a beta (not a demo).

Well I don't think I'll be playing the beta.

The fact you can'r remap certain keys and the mouse buttons makes it unplayable for me. Tried AutoHotKey and x-Mouse but it still wouldn't allow me to rebind the keys I wanted.

Unless I find a way around it the purchase from Origin was a waste of time (but at least I got 20% off)

I downloaded a registry key changer called "keytweak" altho now my arrow keys keep typing wwwaasssdddd when ever i use them lol

Took an age rebind all the bits and bobs ingame but i finally have everything usable

Pray you have a logitech mouse too so you can fully bind all the controls there too

I put the origin setup here
http://www.megaupload.com/?d=CARMRNQ0

I agree about the server browser, pain in the butt, but it is still beta, hopefully they will impliment a better front end on release.
