Yeah, I just asked the same thing.Ubersnug said:I contacted their online support yesterday and this is what was said:
Albeit, a confusing conversation, but the impression is that the emails are being sent out in stages.
Simple: Hi, my name is Simple. How may I help you?
Me: Hello. Yes, I have bought the game of Medal of Honor - Tier 1 Edition. In this package is an invitation to the Battlefield 3 beta. I have the game registered to my EA Account. I was wondering since there have been reports that people are recieving emails that confirms their spot in the upcomming beta and I have yet to recieve that email if there would happen to be a problem with my game or if I should patiently wait for it to arrive?
Simple: Okay. Please be informed Me, that invitations are being sent randomly by the server. So, I request you to wait.

I have my phone make the loudest sound known to man any time I get a new email so I always can check it as soon as I get one. Too bad I get like 500 store newsletters instead of the stuff I actually want...lolFreki said:Thats the reason I migrated my eMail to push - so its instant :-D

Is it just me or did the LAV's primary fire look really weak against infantry in that one video? I know the guy wasn't the best at it, but it still looked like he should have killed the one guy.

Dice should thank them. It's not like they're releasing gameplay.Billen said:According to the NDA people are allowed to say that there is an alpha and that they are part of it, but nothing more. Posting movies etc of an unfinished product is not a good idea.

It should run decently at medium on 720p.CassSept said:My PC is Intel Core2 Quad 2.5 GhZ, GeForce 9600 GT and 2 GB ram.
Will BF3 run on my PC at all? I've been delaying adding more ram for a while now, but I'm wondering right now if it makes any sense at all or should I just get a new PC altogether...

I was kinda joking.Billen said:Unclear joke or what? The movies mostly show gameplay, yes.
From what I remember, there's no commo rose but I'm not 100% sure. It's a shame if it isn't there since that was one of the coolest features of BF2 to support teamwork and communication. I'm sure it will be like BC2 so it's easy to do on consoles but it sucks if it's not in the PC version like I imagine.Ikuu said:So is the Command Rose back or do I need to find a Medic and 'spot' him, and is spotting still as terrible as in BC2?
Enco said:I was kinda joking.
It's true though. They've released very little gameplay so I'm happy people are releasing it themselves.
It's cool. I was gonna say exactly that in my post but decided not to haha.Billen said:So I figured. Sorry if I came across as a cunt.
The thing is that there are LOADS of posts regarding the leaked movies along the lines of "The destruction is bad. I dislike the graphics" etc. Some of these people could possibly buy another game due to these negative opinions, and they could convince others to do the same. Now, if we imagine that the alpha product really isn't representative of the final product, this is hardly a good thing.
Of course there are people that will buy the game due to the movies they see, but they probably would at a later stage anyway, having seen the movies from the final product instead. It's hardly as if the hype from not seeing any movies beside the official ones would kill their sales.
Yep, that's every BF3 thread in a nutshell.Mr. Snrub said:

He was first reply afterall, and I couldn't deal with the backlash of the NDA, if there ever was one. :\

Nostalgia~4ever said:It seems that there might not be a 3rd person view for the vehicles. I dont think it is a big deal though.
It is a big deal in a positive sense. No more eagle vision for tanks, you can only see what's in your first person perspective.Nostalgia~4ever said:It seems that there might not be a 3rd person view for the vehicles. I dont think it is a big deal though.
The negatives far outweigh the positives. Whilst in a sense it makes it more fair, it also makes it much less fun to use vehicles especially now that most of them will be using cameras with HUD everywhere instead of your PC looking out a hole or window.Arnie said:It is a big deal in a positive sense.

Kyaw said:It is useful for Blackhawks because i can adjust the chopper properly for the gunner.
For jets, it's very useful to look around but keeping it only first person would be fine too, makes it harder.
For tanks, it's good that 3rd person is removed. You should only be able to see the first person perspective.
