Battlefield 3 Beta

[Fenix_ZA]

Was browsing Toms Hardware and came across this thread, I lol at the title.

Battlefield 3 multiplayer a bit hard

Seriously, what is this world coming too. They obviously didn't game in the 90's!! Take Tinmans avatar for example - if you recognise Tinman's avatar you would know. (did finish it btw )

There seems to be rumors that we'll be able to download the game from origin from the 21st, hope this true.

 

[DarthSWNT]

All digital distribution platforms will have a "pre-load" to download and activate on the launch day

 

[Fenix_ZA]

It's true. I saw it on a couple of forums and it seems to have been confirmed.

Battlefield 3 beta saw 8 million players

Yeh it was epic... I reckon many of those will buy it for sure.

But not all of them. All those haxers should go jump in a river.

 

[DarthSWNT]

Haha. yeh true, and many will pirate it. But then many more didn't get to try the beta. I know 30% of the people I know who said they want BF3 actually played the BETA.

But yeh, lets see

 

[Jaco Smit]

If you pirate then you can't play online, which is the major selling point (or am I wrong?).

I see that a Russian (it just have to be) e-tailer already posted the Torrent online to download.

Ya i am probably not going to even play the single player

Sent from my GT-S5830 using MyGaming Android App

 

[Jaco Smit]

Nope, Single player will be left for early evenings before going online.

I played BC2 single player for 2 mins before the second type of cutscene irritated me and i went and rpg'ed some poeple on MP.

Nah, I killed the SP in 6 hours, MoH's SP kept me busy just over 5 hours.

I actually enjoyed the BFBC 2 single player and from what I have seen from trailers BF 3 single player also looks promising. Will probably only play it between mp sessions though

I am looking forward to the Co-op maps, will be nice to jam that with a m8 when one needs a break from MP.

I agree, hopefully it wont lag too much and we will have built in VOiP.

There are alternative to ingame voip, I mostly use skype and teamspeak with my m8's, while playing games.
It just depends on how many of us want to chat together.

Hi Worf
Yes, that I know. Team Speak, Mumble, Ventrillo, Skype etc etc etc. On my 384K ADSL my gaming and VOiP don't go together very well.
Maybe I should look for Mumble and Team Speak for my Android phone.
