Vince did make it seem like they were trying to get preorders in so I get why he's upset. People who preordered sitting and waiting while they're out there tweeting codes left and right
.
I gave in, trying to use a touchpad to do it on a laptop was impossible.
They pretty specifically said that preordering wouldn't be taken into account. They did say that they wish it could've been that way, but that it wasn't.
The thirst on that twitch stream was unreal and I thought mine was bad.

Yep, you simply cannot win.
But they should appreciate those who preordered the game, instead of putting the codes on Twitter to be grabbed by bots :/
Ya. I have given up trying to get the Twitch codes. Just too much spam. Off to work now, so hopefully the PC code fairies visit me later on.
Have fun all!
This much we agree on. They absolutely should've made this a pre-order only basis. It's unfortunate that they didn't.

They should, but they have no way of knowing with the way they had the sign up. It's a staggered release, just wait and hope you get in. I'm in the same boat as you.
Hahah its a madhouse in there, but at least he isn't shy about throwing out codes.
Tip for copy and pasting from the stream, if you're pasting into the Xbox website, it will cut off after you surpass the # of valid digits so you just have to catch the beginning to the end of the code and then anything after that and paste it in

People should really stop trying support to hassle a key, support is there for help, not to try and con out beta keys.
While your hassling for a key, your taking a space from someone who may actually need help with something.
Anyways, i've given up hope now - no email and twitter is just not worth it.

Vince specifically said they had their "best men" working on getting preorders codes. I guess it was all a part of the mixed messaging coming from everywhere but he did say that.

I agree
But there are loop holes. Pre-ordering does necessarily mean that you are going to buy the game. It's easy to pre-order something for free on Amazon and then cancel after playing the beta. I guess they were avoiding this scenario.

They sure owe me an access code, I was one of the few legendary dumb shits to buy BF4+Premium on Origin...worst mistake I've ever made.
Oh well if I don't receive a code from them I'll definitely just ignore it and play something else,this beta was supposed to give me an indication how bad the lag is for us Australians.

Did they send out a big wave? I received mine for the PC, about 3 hours ago

Got my XB1 beta code through last night, will give it a god tonight (wife will have to wait for her valentines day dinner). Wife did inform me that I was off work on March 14th (UK release date for Titanfal), I will however be in the arse end of nowhere at a fucking wedding. FFS. She LOL'ed...
Yes, doing it with touchpad sounds like impossible task
I was so excited that I was copying and pasting xbox one codes into origin

I see I am not the only one scorned twice.
Figured I would at least get the PC beta, even though I would prefer to play it on the XB1-
Damn.Well-congrats to the people who got in
preorder...kept
haha

Other than there being no Australian servers (which obviously sucks), have they mentioned where they do have servers? Being in Finland, obviously hopeful about Finnish servers but even Sweden would be fine. Anything further than that might be a deal breaker.
Talking about PC version, if that matters.
I've been trying stuff for around 6 hours I think, haha.
Yeah, tons of people wanted to get their codes there.
I applied 4 times with 4 e-mails for the beta,even from different IP addresses so that I could give them away and stuff. Couldn't even get one for myself. Hope that the next wave comes soon.

Seems to be a lack of PC codes, I think its obvious there pushing the Xbox one codes out to build up hype so Xbox's start to shift off shelves.
Yeah I applied from a bunch of emails too and preordered. I'm debating giving this EA support thing a shot before I go to bed but they're probably wise to that now too. I'd feel guilty about lying but I doubt they'd give me a code just because I want to get in real bad, probably not worth it.
