I put my trust in shopto. Usually the games come a day before release with those.

In terms of convenience, that's Origin. It will let you preload the game on the 21st. However, it's also one of the most expensive places to get it from.

You do show on the minimap briefly (I'm thinking no longer than a second).

Watching a vid in that thread I posted, it seems when you stop shooting, its gone. Straight away.

If it is a lot more like BF2 I will be so much happier.

I loved the minimap on BF2 because it was so easier to see what was going on. BF3 beta minimap I didnt even know my objectives, where to go or where my team was

Same here mate. I spent half of the time stopping and looking around the map where I had to go next / defend !!!!

Im actually glad i dont have to wait on a disc after the fifa12 origin debacle, most people ended up having to download a majority of the game anyway. plus in my experience its a lottery if you get it deliveredon release day, Origin pre load confirmed my decision for me
