Support NeoGAF

[Anton Sugar]

Even though I registered my Steam key on Origin, still can't access Battlelog. My roommate can, though, so maybe it takes the account a moment.

 

[wwm0nkey]

Still havent got my email :/

 

[Dinosaur Tamer]

I pre-ordered months ago on Origin and haven't received a key yet. :\

Same here. It's past 3pm in Sweden. All keys were supposed to be out by now.

Why the hell haven't I gotten my key yet? Do I start bugging EA Chat now?

That's what I am going to start doing now. :/

 

[BBQMan]

Launching through Battlelog... WORST IDEA EVER! >.> game flickers with the webpage and Origin why couldn't they just have a client.. This isn't a Free to play game for fuck sake. Also no squad browser WHAT THE HELL.

 

[Smokey]

Boys fiendin for dat BF3 beta lol

it's actually not. calm down it's first day they are getting killed.

 

[Shao Kahn Brewing a Stew]

I got my 360 code now.

The 360 beta is 1.3GB.

And PC is twice the size. Makes me optimistic that PC version will get Caspian Border next week

I pre-ordered months ago on Origin and haven't received a key yet. :\

This is me as well. I love how those who supported EA and Origin early are getting leapfrogged by people who purchased MOH on Steam. However, in all fairness, they were eligible to receive the Beta well before Origin existed.

 

[Manos: The Hans of Fate]

Good luck with that. About 1,000 people in the queue / 45 minute wait to probably get told "we can't help".

Bah, I'm just going to have a fajita from last night. I'll deal with this later.

 

[mr_nothin]

Boys fiendin for dat BF3 beta lol

Yep
F5

 

[Anton Sugar]

Yes, you absolutely do. You have to have it to SEE the key. At least in my Steam client. So I started the DL and saw the key and then stopped the DL and deleted it.

Sorry man, just reporting what I'm seeing. I don't have MOH installed and haven't for a few days. I can grab a screencap if you want.

Like I said, maybe if you'd never installed it before, you're required to install it a first time. But mine is not installed and I got the key.

 

[iNvid02]

Boys fiendin for dat BF3 beta lol

hows it run on sli 580s? i got my upgraded 3GB 580s yesterday

 

[Emily Chu]

wolol things NEVER EVER EVER GO ACCORDING TO PLAN when internets and ALOT OF PEOPLE are involved.

 

[Woorloog]

And PC is twice the size. Makes me optimistic that PC version will get Caspian Border next week

Which would cause rather large outrage in Xbox/PS communities, if they're left out.
But i assume increased texture resolutions etc and compression alone cannot account for larger filesize, can they?

Works fine, it's the first competent server browser DICE have made.

must be it. I never installed it. just bought it to get a bf3 beta key.

but that's my point - you need to install it to see the key.

 

[Smokey]

hows it run on sli 580s? i got my upgraded 3GB 580s yesterday

Never dips below 80fps outside. Inside tunnel 100+ majority of the time. Ultra everything, HBAO, max AA, 70/100 motion blur. Uses 1.4GB of VRAM at the highest.

 

[Gunmonkey36]

Curse you EA, where the f is my beta key?

 

[iNvid02]

Never dips below 80fps outside. Inside tunnel 100+ majority of the time. Ultra everything, HBAO, max AA, 70/100 motion blur.

1080p right? i play at 1600p

 

[Sethos]

Yes, you absolutely do. You have to have it to SEE the key. At least in my Steam client. So I started the DL and saw the key and then stopped the DL and deleted it.

No you don't, you just click on the game and press "CD-Key" on the right side of the main window. You don't have to start the download.

 

[Netrunner2k2]

How does this happen?

 

[sk3tch]

No you don't, you just click on the game and press "CD-Key" on the right side of the main window. You don't have to start the download.

You had to have it installed at some point prior in order to see the key. If you had never installed it, you need to in order to see the key. Hence my point. You can just start the DL, get the key, and stop the DL and delete it.

 

[Smokey]

1080p right? i play at 1600p

Yeah 1080p, 3D monitor here.

Let me know how that goes at 1600p. I'm curious.

 

[DenogginizerOS]

I'm sorry, but that is some grade-A sex talk for nerds. *moan*

 

[woober]

And this is how BF3's launch day will look like.

 

[U2NUMB]

I got my 360 code now.

The 360 beta is 1.3GB.

I am assuming you were MOH LE right?

 

[Ubersnug]

So, no one in the UK have their 360 codes yet?

 

[Ryuuga]

So what happens for those that preordered it on origin ? Do we wait for an email? Wait for the portal site? EA is handling this very poorly I must say. Hopefully things will make more sense when I get back from work.

 

[iNvid02]

Yeah 1080p, 3D monitor here.

Let me know how that goes at 1600p. I'm curious.

nice, i guess i'll have to turn hbao off. hopefully that should keep it steady at 60
someone throw me a code and i'll post glorious 1600p screenshots

 

[endlessflood]

My friends playing the PS3 beta tell me it's fun but incredibly laggy and glitchy. Given these are Battlefield vets, for them to say that things must be pretty bad...

Is it just the PS3 version that's like that?

 

[Smokey]

I'm sorry, but that is some grade-A sex talk for nerds. *moan*

I just re-read that after you posted this. It sure is. Such a geek lol.

 

[Snkfanatic]

Download/install it and then you can see the key. You can uninstall/delete once you grab the key.

Thanks

 

[Pat]

This is me as well. I love how those who supported EA and Origin early are getting leapfrogged by people who purchased MOH on Steam. However, in all fairness, they were eligible to receive the Beta well before Origin existed.

Still no email for me either.

[bluedeviltron]

So is it confirmed that torrenting the client works? Can someone throw up a link?

Still no key. So glad I preordered on Origin.

 

[zephervack]

And this is how BF3's launch day will look like.

Actually it will be even worse, as today is only Pre order people and MOH people.

 

[LEGGZZZZ]

You and me both my friend.

hehe, you can misinterpret that ^^

We were supposed to receive an E-Mail over 6 hours ago. That was delayed to a timeframe that started 2 hours ago and actually ended 15 minutes ago. There has been no new information as to when we will actually receive our keys.

 

[nglaus]

A video from the Xbox 360 version.

Looks great for me... better than the PS3 version? hmm...

 

[Anton Sugar]

Glory halle-fucking-julah

Aaaaand off to work I go. Play with y'all in 9 hours.

 

[bluedeviltron]

http://filesmelt.com/dl/BF3Beta_RequiresKey.torrent

Excellent, thanks.

 

[Guerrillas in the Mist]

Won't be able to get my hands on the open beta until Friday evening, so I'm not going to get my hands on it until then. It's gonna be a hell of a week!

 

[Smokey]

There's also a 3D option in the Options settings of the beta. Gonna try that out when I get home. Curious to see their implementation.

 

[Giriath_89]

I got my Origin pre-order code...or maybe Alpha participation, if we really get keys for that?

If I get two I'll share with some poor soul.

 

[Woo-Fu]

pre-ordered on Origin first day it was available, still no key, lol. At least I'm torrenting the client. With my crappy internet speed I needed to download this in advance to make any use whatsoever of early access.

 

[AndyMoogle]

I am assuming you were MOH LE right?

Yup.

 

[Dead Prince]

Glory halle-fucking-julah

Aaaaand off to work I go. Play with y'all in 9 hours.

Same here have work in a few. :O

 

[Amagon]

So I own the MOH LE for the PS3 and I see nothing in the PSN store about BF3. What am I doing wrong here?
