irsprint84 Posted July 27, 2011 Posted July 27, 2011 Some reason EA has given me access just downloading now!
featured_spectre Posted July 27, 2011 Posted July 27, 2011 Its poor, too buggy (I got the alpha on xbox because of the MOH Limited edition key ) it needs a few things fixing Pulling back teammates = you pretty much die each time Building destruction = awesome if the physics were correct, when you take out one side and the middle it should topple the side you take out, not the other way Choppers and Tanks = awesome but massively overpowered (no tank shell should be able to drop a skyscraper, same with a rocket from a chopper) Otherwise not bad!!
aerospacemango Posted July 27, 2011 Posted July 27, 2011 Some reason EA has given me access just downloading now! ooOOOooo...Do you get to send invites out??? LOL!!!
mullet_man Posted July 27, 2011 Posted July 27, 2011 Can you only get Alpha on Xbox if you buy MOH limited edition? Still hammering BFBC2, new one looks great.
featured_spectre Posted July 27, 2011 Posted July 27, 2011 Yeh you need to get the limited edition (NOT TIER 1) when it came out (the cards got stopped a while back) so if you are lucky you *may* find a card in the box if you bought it today

Still need to my rank up.
rush_tech Posted July 27, 2011 Posted July 27, 2011 I've got an alpha invite aswell Don't think my C2D is going to live up to it Plans in the pipeline for an upgrade though
Rawns Posted July 28, 2011 Posted July 28, 2011 I've got the Alpha too on the PC! Downloaded and played all last night. For those who want it to be more BF2 then BC2, you will be disappointed. It's basically BC2 but more polished with a few more features. The graphics are good but my machine is a little under speced to get a full smooth experience. Prone is back! Yay! Cant assess planes as there are none in the Alpha.
featured_spectre Posted July 28, 2011 Posted July 28, 2011 You can use choppers on xbox, but not planes
Rawns Posted July 28, 2011 Posted July 28, 2011 You can use choppers on xbox, but not planes So does the Xbox Alpha have a different level to the PC Alpha?
featured_spectre Posted July 28, 2011 Posted July 28, 2011 Wake Island here...diff people get diff maps. A friend of mine has Strike at Karkand and another has Operation Metro.
featured_spectre Posted July 28, 2011 Posted July 28, 2011 Wake Island looks much more grittier and wartorn, a few more places to hide and stuff, but its much more fun Shame planes are disabled on the map though
featured_spectre Posted July 28, 2011 Posted July 28, 2011 https://bf3alpha.battlefield.com < for anyone that wants the alpha on PC
Rawns Posted July 28, 2011 Posted July 28, 2011 https://bf3alpha.battlefield.com < for anyone that wants the alpha on PC Your EA account has to have access so only people who have been sent a Alpha e-mail can play. Already tried with my mate. The game launches through a web interface and you have to log in before you can get to it. No invite? Access denied.
featured_spectre Posted July 28, 2011 Posted July 28, 2011 Nope, my account doesnt have access on the PC yet I got a code and how to install etc and it works fine
Rawns Posted July 28, 2011 Posted July 28, 2011 Nope, my account doesnt have access on the PC yet I got a code and how to install etc and it works fine Oooooh, interesting! Wonder what my mate was doing wrong then. I'll get him on the case again tonight!
featured_spectre Posted July 28, 2011 Posted July 28, 2011 Dont know, all i know is at the end of the process you get the code to input
localzuk Posted July 28, 2011 Posted July 28, 2011 Been playing with BC2 lately, as someone recommended it. Not bad, hate all the sniper kiddies though - what's the point of the game if you're just going to sit 2 miles away and press your mouse button occasionally.
featured_spectre Posted July 28, 2011 Posted July 28, 2011 I am one of the types of sniper that runs around with a shotgun and C4 on occassion as I like to destroy things....its fun!
Ben-UK Posted August 2, 2011 Posted August 2, 2011 (I got the alpha on xbox because of the MOH Limited edition key ) it needs a few things fixing The alpha is only on PC, how are you playing it on 360 ?? The beta will be on 360 & PS3 in September.
ZeroHour Posted August 2, 2011 Posted August 2, 2011 The alpha is only on PC, how are you playing it on 360 ?? The beta will be on 360 & PS3 in September. I thought it was PC only in this Alpha too, most of the sites I found said the same thing.
featured_spectre Posted August 2, 2011 Posted August 2, 2011 Limited keys were given out for Xbox. PC version was released a few days before Xbox and ps3 versions. EA want to see how it plays for all platforms and are testing server stuff atm.
aerospacemango Posted August 2, 2011 Posted August 2, 2011 https://bf3alpha.battlefield.com < for anyone that wants the alpha on PC Oh knacks! Went through and there's nothing there!
