Will early access to the BF6 beta be available for those who pre-order the Phantom edition?

    So for us that don't live in the US and were unable to watch twitch streams at 4am in our local time. How can we get the codes for early access? I feel that this is a big F you to the rest of your community who don't live within the US.

    Excellent question.

    I would offer / argue the most good faith approach would be to just open it up for everyone starting on the 7th after the problems they have already had.

    One other alternative would be to push their "content creator" contractors to re-run the multiplayer event for Beta key credit when they are offline...?

    If you had access to the labs then you had that opportunity in the months prior? Otherwise beta access opens 2 days later to everyone? 

    Can't please everyone, but I sure as hell wouldn't be spending money to pre-order a game in order to have access to a beta 2 days earlier.

    Not everyone got into Labs or tried... which I would argue was another miss by EA DICE

    To be more clear, if they had stated some of the "rewards" for Labs up front, that may have encouraged more people to ensure they got signed up.

    If they came out with an expectation of rewards then more players wouldve signed up but only for that and not done any meaningful playtesting and/or given feedback. The incentive of playing early and helping steer the game shouldve been and was enough.

    I would agree with you, but I hate to tell you there was no feedback... unless you count a survey that was pretty superficial.  There was no forum to provide feedback like earlier Alphas / Betas, nothing.  I appreciated the opportunity, but it did not feel impactful in any way really.  It was mostly server stress testing.

    I already know there will be a Beta forum, but with an October 10 release date... it basically just makes it a taste test.  There is no more time for significant changes to be made... and that is concerning if significant changes are needed.
