Wasnt the release date moved UP? It was originally slated to be released in November, now its October 25th.

Or Diablo 3...though I'd rather wait for an exquisite game, than get a subpar game sooner.

Actually, the devs prob wanted to do a March 2012 release date like they did with BC2, but EA would've wanted a BF3 vs MW3 thing going, so Oct 25 is when it had to be. Wish they would let the devs take their time, but oh well, just means its coming sooner

I wish games would release in May, right in time for summer.

I don't check this forum as much as I used to...don't like the new members much and most of the oldies have moved on/rarely post any more.


Here's some PS3 footage for you noobs who will be playing on console. It looks great I think.

They did, the PS3 is more powerful than the 360. Though, i was surprised to see the R1/L1 being shoot/zoom. Ive seen those controls on CoD before, is that the usual for a FPS on the PS3?

Yes. Using L1/R1 to ADS/Shoot is the standard button config for PS3 shooters. The triggers have too much of a delay when pressed. I was annoyed that you can't change a 360 controller config on CoD to be similar to the PS3 layout, yet you can change the PS3 layout to match the 360 one if you want to.

Ugh, using L2/R2 to ADS/Shoot just feels so disgusting.

The spongyness of the PS3's triggers is what i hate about the controllers and that is also prob the cause of the delay.

Using the triggers is so much more natural, I guess that's why they felt giving the option wasn't necessary.

i had some trouble with the veteran thing, i just got battlefield 2 to show up but it only shows 2 of the expansions when i had all 3. also i can't get 2142 to show up, i have my EA nickname but it keeps saying my PW is wrong but it can't be because it's the same PW i used for my main EA account.

also will downloading all the demos they have listed help too even if they're pretty old?

i've done everything else too but no luck for the alpha . are you only allowed one chance per day to sign up?

i think it's pretty gay that you have to do all this crap just to play the beta, EA should give access to everyone who pre-ordered.

Expansions don't add to your vet status, demos certainly won't do anything.

Just get on EA Live Chat (from Origin.com) and say that you're having trouble getting your vet status updated. They will just add the games that you say you have manually. No need to look up your CD-keys.

Also you only sign up once for the newsletter and then pray that you get the alpha-invite email.

edit - I think you were talking about this site - https://bf3alpha.battlefield.com/index.php?id=1 - I think it only works if you get the invite code.
