Battlefield: Hardline closed beta signup UP, beta live now

Damn im stuck trying to upgrade to origin. This is ridiculous. Im trying to get on the PS4 no reason y i should have to upgrade to an Origin account.
 
Went through on the PS4 for initial sign-up, waiting on email. I won't buy the game upon release just wanted to test it out. But PSN down, wtf, can't even access FFXIV atm, smh.
 
sign up for the beta on the origin site. login with your psn account. After is succeeds you dont have to wait for the mail. Just go to the BF4 thing in your menu on the PS4 and you have direct acces. You only need to confirm/download it.
 
Do you actually have to have the disc in your system? I played BF4 through a gamefly rental, would that let me go to the library screen and download it?
 
My origin says I have NO games lol. I freaked out for a second, my friend said he can see I still have my games, including hardline beta, even though I can't see any of them. My old games weren't even showing up in my purchase history on the origin site....
The weird thing is when I open Origin it gives a popup that it failed to download Naval Strike, which it downloaded and installed yesterday. Did they really release a NS patch the same day as an E3-announced game beta?
 
Was logged into PSN half a second, saw the download thing on the live tile and BAM, maintenance.

Seriously, the "it's available now!" thing needs to stop. You're just going to crash your servers every time.
 
Just got back from lunch and saw this, sounds like i'm f'd... Any current success stories from the PC crowd?
 
People are talking about it being under BF4 on Origin, but given that I don't own BF4 that's not helping. Beta not showing up, though I got a confirmation email. Guess I'll wait a bit...
 
I got the email confirmation but it's still not showing up in Origin as much as I refresh. I even picked up the free copy of Plants V Zombies, I got the confirmation for that and even that doesn't show up.

Origin must be getting hammered.

anyone on PC had the email and it not show up in Origin ?

Yup, same
 
No E-Mail yet, servers are getting hammered on PSN. I don't think they prepared for it.

Surprise, neither did Origin.

Also goes to show the BF4 haters how much the brand is "tarnished" if two platforms are being brought to their knees. CommanderShepardSuckItHaters.gif and all that.
 
Pro tip for people trying to get in on ps4

If you get signed into psn do not log out or restart the system regardless of error messages

Keep spamming the store until you get in

Once you get into the store don't click on anything
Immediately back out to dashboard as the store is now open

Go to battlefield 4 and that hard line beta logo will be there

Click on it and you have access

Good luck fucking downloading it though

After a lot of attempts this finally worked for me. Thanks.
 
Finally got it on the PS4, at least clicking X once on the overview screen locks you in for a beta key cause after the download first failed and I went back, it said you already have access press X to restart download

PS4 USERS DO THIS TECHNIQUE
 
As an experiment, I just tried to grab PvZ as it's the new On the House game.

Now it and the BF beta are in my Order History, but neither is in my Library.

So I'm guessing now it's just a matter of waiting for the servers/back end to catch up.
