ZeroHour Posted September 27, 2011 Posted September 27, 2011 (edited) I have created a Battlefield 3 Platoon for EduGeek'ers to use if you want. Go to Platoons Menu and search for "EduGeek" and you should find it. I am considering getting an EduGeek 32/64 man server the platoon. Edited September 29, 2011 by ZeroHour
featured_spectre Posted September 27, 2011 Posted September 27, 2011 I am on Xbox...will it work there???
aerospacemango Posted September 27, 2011 Posted September 27, 2011 Is there a link for the beta for PC?
featured_spectre Posted September 27, 2011 Posted September 27, 2011 you need to have pre-ordered on origin before the beta came out...you'll have to wait atleast 3 days before you get access if you didnt pre-order
aerospacemango Posted September 27, 2011 Posted September 27, 2011 B*gger!!! Been looking forward to BF3.
ZeroHour Posted September 27, 2011 Author Posted September 27, 2011 you need to have pre-ordered on origin before the beta came out...you'll have to wait atleast 3 days before you get access if you didnt pre-order Nope <32 hours now. It was 48 hour preaccess. No xbox wont work I dont think. PC's are for real men
featured_spectre Posted September 27, 2011 Posted September 27, 2011 I would use the PC, but sadly I cant afford the HW upgrades
ZeroHour Posted September 29, 2011 Author Posted September 29, 2011 Just to say the PC open beta started today, get downloading
aerospacemango Posted September 29, 2011 Posted September 29, 2011 Oh well...that's something for me to do this evening! Why can't it be 5 o'clock NOW!!!! I want to go home and start downloading!!!
matt40k Posted September 29, 2011 Posted September 29, 2011 What's the hw spec for BF3? I think I'm doomed but you never know.

rush_tech Posted September 29, 2011 Posted September 29, 2011 Just waiting for my new PC to arrive then I'll be downloading the beta:) hopefully in the next couple of days
SmellyLlama Posted September 29, 2011 Posted September 29, 2011 hmmm, I think I may well have to buy this and not mention how much it cost to certain people! Going to be great, I just hope my 550ti will cope. Should have never sold my GTX295. /facepalm
Butters Posted September 29, 2011 Posted September 29, 2011 My 560ti plays it at full res and all high settings, pleasantly surprised.

Can you guess? *EDIT* 1 hour and 12 mins later..... 79.48% Getting there........ Edited September 29, 2011 by aerospacemango Update on download!
CAM Posted September 29, 2011 Posted September 29, 2011 I downloaded the beta after jumping through hoops to get Origin working. Now BF3 refuses to play ball with IE9 and falls over. Battlelog comes up about the browser not being fully supported and nothing works. Not even the CSS code. :|
CAM Posted September 29, 2011 Posted September 29, 2011 OK, seems that Trend Micro's AV blocks the plugins that Battlelog prompts you to install on first run. Solution is to disable AV before trying to run BF3 first time. Thanks Zero.
Dos_Box Posted September 30, 2011 Posted September 30, 2011 Arrrghhh! Now I have to download the Nvidia 285.27 beta driver. Getting there....slowly.
Butters Posted September 30, 2011 Posted September 30, 2011 Arrrghhh! Now I have to download the Nvidia 285.27 beta driver. Getting there....slowly. Yea. I was not happy having to install beta drivers to get the game working - Small price though for an awesome game.
Dos_Box Posted September 30, 2011 Posted September 30, 2011 Does anyone have a link to a printable list of controls? I have died very swiftly and very horribly several times this lunchtime and feel I need to actually be able to move to achieve anything beyond making my monitor display various shades of red.
