Battlefield 3 expansions to arrive one week earlier on PS3

Not unlike Microsoft and Activision's agreement to give Xbox early access to Call of Duty DLC, Sony and EA have arranged for Battlefield 3 expansions to arrive with an exclusive lead on PlayStation 3. However, Battlefield 3's expansions will stay exclusive to the PS3 for a shorter period: one week per expansion.

The deal kicks off with "Back to Karkand," which launches "later this year" and brings with it four Battlefield 2 maps (including Wake Island) rebuilt in the Frostbite 2.0 engine. The expansion comes free with first-run copies of Battlefield 3 for all platforms, though it now seems it won't be available for download immediately.

The Battlefield 3 beta opens on PC (check the system requirements), PS3 and Xbox 360 on September 29.

More Battlefield 3 beta details

Battlefield 3 beta will run from September 29 to October 10.

There is no player level limit on the beta and no limit on how much you can unlock.

One game mode, Rush, and one map, Operation Metro will be available.

The Operation Metro map has undergone changes since the alpha.

The beta is limited to 32 players on PC, 24 on console.

Beta size will be around 2-3 GB.

The netcode has been re-written from the alpha trial.

Owners of Medal of Honor do not need the disc to play the beta
EA Origin pre-orders and Medal of Honor owners get access to the beta 48h earlier, on Sep 27.

If you want early access, you have to pre-order on Origin before Sep 25.

Asia has now been added to the open beta.

Origin is required to play the beta on PC.

Stats and ranks will not carry over into the final game.

PC beta system requirements can be found here.

The beta won’t include all the graphics features which will make it in the final version.

what why.. the fuck
i see whole threads on /v/ going "OH MY GOD DO I NEED TO UPGRADE MY PC?!"
Why would they not release full graphical power so people can gauge correctly if they need upgrades or not.
i don't plan on going past High @ 1920x1080. But would be nice to see where my systems limit with this game is.

**Qalbert** · 2011-09-22 14:24

presumable the beta is testing netcode and balance?

**Azull** · 2011-09-22 14:31

I would guess since the min and recommended specs are out now that if you have to ask if you need to upgrade it means you do need to upgrade.

**Insanecyclone** · 2011-09-23 11:13

Special Nividia drivers incoming on the 26th just for the BF3 beta. Not sure if AMD will release a similar update.
