83. Re: Hacked 128-Player Battlefield 3 Beta Servers Oct 3, 2011, 12:15 Jerykk
 
Ahem, patently false on that last bit. This is an OPEN beta, I provided nothing to prove that I had pre-ordered the game through NewEgg (not that they would provide any way to give them that info anyway).

All you need to do to get into the beta is to have an EA.com account, tie it to Origin, then go to Store.Origin.com and click the little "play now" button or whatever on BF3's page in the Origin Store. Voila, "Free" Beta test to the game.

It's not patently false at all. Notice I said that the only way get into the beta was to either buy MoH LE or pre-order BF3. Doing either would guarantee you early access to the beta before everyone else. Thus, EA did indeed use the beta as a marketing tool to increase sales of MoH and pre-orders of BF3.
