Open Beta! But shh, don't tell anyone ;-)

[RoTide]

I'm also surprised that there isn't even a hint of news about this. You'd think EA would be all over the gaming press drumming up attention.

Odd.

[Xanziel]

This is my wild guess.
You won't be recieving free BattleFunds if you weren't in the closed beta.
Sadly.
But, as an admin said, you can make an unlimited amount of EA Accounts.
I took that right, and made some closed-beta accounts.
Sadly.. my code for those other ones are not here. ):

Im glad its open beta - I cant wait for youtube to be overloaded with BFH vids, idiotic 5 year olds complaining in game and easy kills. Just wait for my levels to soar upwards...

What do you mean, not in the gaming press? The people at Planet Battlefield are on top of things

That's because everyone and their mothers are downloading the ArmA II Demo that got released just an hour ago, it's everything about ArmA II right now...

AmAr does rock. i have to admit it. and every game is like you are a commando - one death and you sit for 5 or 10 minutes until the last guy dies.

as to the music. i love it - reminds me of the 1980's GI-Joe cartoon. which is the kind of vibe that EA was going for with this game (i think).

BTW - no beta tags for people signing up today -

psst. keep this quiet, ok? this isn't open beta. this is public release. shhhhhhhh...

[Jayer]

We're so awesome with our beta tags.

Bow in homage, open beta players.

It felt more like 'yea whatever, have your stinking open beta and leave us alone' kind of opening

My thoughts exactly.. I felt like singing along with the pokemon lyrics when I saw the new trailer xD

I don't know why but I found myself singing the MacGruber song from SNL.

Open Beta is still Beta. It is merely another phase prior to release.

Ooo, open beta. I'll have some of my friends get on that asap. Last I checked I hadn't even gotten my "beta tag" yet, though. That sucks.

[Revelations]

Woot! had a blast playing with ya'll on beta. Lookin forward to annoying more of you in the future!

[HermanTheGerman]

i dont think there will be lots of new players.. it only took 1 minute to get a free key for the closed beta in the last months

[The Omega Man]

Ahhhh "times they are changing"
It was very nice to close beta with you guys, I guess the forums will be invaded with new people, but I will always recognize the "old timers". I hope e keep our BETA tags...

[BrutusGM]

Well great news! It has been a fun time doing the closed beta and hope the open beta gets even better!!

see you in the game
