EA: Battlefield 3 pre-orders over 'a couple million,' 8 million played beta

Oct 18th 2011 9:02PM (Joystiq)
You might think that its stupid for someone to cancel a pre order over a beta, but it was equally stupid for dice to use an "old" build to run the beta knowing full well they would be judged on how the beta was compared to how long they have to fix the issues.

After medal of honor and the fact that dice wasn't exactly fast at fixing major lag issues in bfbc2, the beta gave me serious concerns. Hopefully its good, but I will wait and see.

Battlefield 3 will employ Online Pass, required for multiplayer

@MW49350 just be sure you cut a check to the automobile manufacturer when you trade in or sell your car for a new one. And don't forget the home builder when you sell your house. Or sell your baseball cards, comics, art collection. I don't think sotheby's has cut any checks to van goghs family.

Seriously give it a rest developers are not some endangered species that we need to protect by giving them part of the secondary market.

Its EA of course it is going to have online pass.

I will say it still cracks me up the COD and gears don't do online pass and will still sell more new copies than battlefield 3. I think the real secret to making more money developing games is to make a really great game that everyone wants so bad they'll buy it new in stead of wait a few weeks to save 10 bucks. That seems like a better plan than online pass to me. Ground breaking analysis by me

Wow bf3 fans are fighting each to come up with the most witty put down of mw3. I am shocked.

Fifa always comes and reminds me that other people in the world play video games and those people all like only one sport - soccer

I agree, generally speaking. It is certainly better than the battlefield 3 beta (major disappointment). Its probably on par with resistance. Both of good gameplay and graphics, but forgettable stories

EA is fixing these issues found in the Battlefield 3 open beta

Finally peeled myself away from gears 3 horde mode to try bf3. Wow was I disappointed. The beta made me feel like I was playing moh after launch. So many bugs. Betas have bugs, but they should be minor and generally easily addressed. This felt more like an alpha version. Now that would be fine if the game was 6 months away, but instead its 3 weeks away. I will say I was torn on having to trade in gears to be able to get bf3 and mw3. Now I think I'll wait to see how bf3 turns out a couple weeks after launch before purchase. Ea already got me show up for th moh midnight release, not going to happen for bf3

@gofish1985 best game and best selling are two different things. My guess is that mw3 and bf3 will out sell it on ps3

Goes to show that if your game is kick ass then you will make money regardless of the used game market. looks at resistance 3 and shakes head in disappointment. Resistance 3 is how you don't end a console launching trilogy.
