Re: Star wars battlefront 2 beta code

To be honest, EA have done an absolute terrible job with this beta. It was obviously going to be hugely popular and if EA failed to see this then they obviously don’t listen to feedback or look at forums/boards etc.

Most companies allow you to download beta software a few days before so that you can play immediately when servers are up, not this farce of only being able to download when the beta goes live which will take hours because the servers will be hammered - not to mention those who work or are in school and can’t download until they finish wich means they’ve instantly missed a day of the ‘so-called’ early access! And to top it off they are now facing issues even accessing the beta!

This is utter shambles which you would not expect from such a large company who have hosted several betas in the past.

Absolutely terrible!!

    True, they have made stress to themselves with the codes on the first day of the beta.

    @iCaptnSpaulding I agree, this is all absolutely ridiculous. This early access is the only reason I pre-ordered. I have work today, by the time they may get back to me and get it to work I would have lost the chance to play. I have a few hours now, was hoping to put some time into it today. Very disappointing. 

  • I am on Pc and preordered through origin. But no Beta in my library does anyone know what to do?

    Spoke to Playstation via live chat.  the chap i spoke to had just had a email come through during the chat, putting the blame on EA's side.

    On the same boat. 

    At this pace, beta will be open to all.

    Nice!

    Pre-ordered from EBgames AU, guess I'll have to wait till business hours before asking for another code...
