BF3 Beta download problem

[NoMaD]

Hey guys, I have been trying to download the beta all day and can't get the server.

The first one I tryed was this http://www.battlefield.com/battlefield3/1/beta you follow the link you will see that you cannot select the "Download for PC".

The second thing I did was go on the origin thing you need to download and went to "store' and 'free games' and it didn't show any thing and later I showed me this 'Server Error, The following error occurred:

 The server response could not be read because of an error. Contact your system administrator.'

Thirdly I went on Origin's website, but it showes me,[url]http://store.origin.com/store/eara/en_ZA/home/ThemeID.1220300/ccRef.en_US[/url], but when I click on that image that says, BETA avaliablen now or on 'Free Games' it says the website is down or has a programing error.

So if any one can help it would be super cool, so please let me know whats wrong here. I think the server might be a bit busy with all the people who want to download, so yeah, let me know

Yep, seems the EA servers are down. Why can no one ever get this right? You know shit is gonna break, so prepare for it!

hahaha ... once you get over the frustration of getting the beta and installing it you will get in the server crashing frustration phase

Origin failed to recognize my password so I had to do the whole "forgot password" nonsense, now the servers are down, not a good start EA.

Thanks for the wage link weakest_link. (your link was not at all that weak)

Must admit that is the one thing that frustrates me a lot, not being able to download beta etc. I know I got into I think the RIFT beta but couldn't play because when ever I downloaded the files it kept giving me errors at the end and asking me to re-dl.

Hey guys, thanks for all the help, got the game now, just trying to get out of the "Join Server" stage, I join a server and leave it for like 5 minutes to join, then give up and join a new one, suck so bad, any know of a faster way?

Add me on Origin, Captain_Cheap
