I signed up to BF3 beta way back when it was announced last year and ive got MoH LE aswell.

But if i log into my EA account on Origan it says ive got no games.

You will be emailed a key by tomorrow 2 pm (apparently) that you can use to "activate" the beta on origin to download it.

I cannot tell you 100%. But somewhere on the Origin program that you run or on the Origin/EA Profile site, you can add your games by means of typing in your game CD-Key.

Refreshing your Origin DL program should then have your MoH installation/DL option.
 
Fridge, I think you need to activate your games through origin like Jaco suggested by typing in the CD Key or the Steam Key
 
I don't think EA can send you codes unless you give them reason and a place to send it to. Besides, with the Open Beta, you don't need a key to my knowledge. It's like a demo.
 
Stupid Origin. Now ive got Origin, Steam, Xfire, Mirc, Live Messenger and Skype running on startup. Gonna have to appoint a secretary to answer everyone.

Amped to play the BETA but cant really spen a lot of time on it. Must get myself ready for rAge.
 
Wondering if EA would be nice enough to the rAge Lanners to give them a server to play BF3 on.

There is going to be a couple of pcs with BF3 on them at rAge in the expo side so yeah you can go play it a bit there.

As for the LAN i dont think so. I dont think EA has thought of that. If they did (which they didnt) they would have been heroes at rAge.
 
Yeah, you can say that again.
Unfortunately I don't LAN anymore. I cannot play BC2 on LANs but only on the internet.
It's sad that they have removed the LAN aspect out of the game. But looking at piracy, you can understand why they need active log ins to authenticate users and keys.
Anyways, I will be @ rAge on Sunday.
 
Man they being retarded. Keep the LAN function but also keep the active logins. So youll be logged in for authentication and for stat purposes but you can run the game on LAN. Like you do with MW2 and Black Ops.

So EA is just being putties to be honest. But then again SA lans arent close to international standards so internet is not an issue for them overseas. But i see we are getting there slowly.
