BT Games to host midnight launches for Battlefield 3

24 October 2011

BT Games has confirmed they’ll be doing midnight launches around South Africa for Battlefield 3, so you can get your game early then go home and find there aren’t any servers up yet, and cry yourself to sleep.

[Ed: But seriously, local gaming service providers will be ready and waiting for the launch of the game.]

The launches are taking place on Thursday, 27 October 2011 at the following stores.

•    Cavendish Connect
•    Canalwalk
•    Clearwater Mall
•    Centurion
•    Eastrand Mall
•    Fourways Mall
•    Greenstone
•    Mimosa Mall
•    Menlyn
•    Pavilion
•    Tygervalley

Preorder DLC incentives include a Type 88 LMG, Flechette ammo, a DAO-12 shotgun, and a flash suppressor, as well as a freebie download token for the Battlefield: Back to Karkand map pack, featuring four of the series’ most popular maps – Strike at Karkand, Wake Island, Gulf of Oman, and Sharqi Peninsula.

“These are evidently some of the very best maps we have ever built. We have unquestionable data and feedback from the community saying so,” said lead designer Niklas Fegraeus. “You would be crazy turning down the chance to boost your game with these classic multiplayer maps.”
