No chance that I know of. Random invites from EA as far as I can tell.

Here is the link that I was given. You can try it, but I doubt that it will work for you.

Link kept cold on purpose.

BC2 always fucked up. I haven't played in months because it takes forever to update, and then tells me it failed. I uninstalled it and reinstalled it and it kept doing the same thing. Why can't EA just release downloadable patches, like a normal, logical entity would do. Or at least allow for partial downloads so that if it fails, it just picks up where it left off. I'm on a 50MBit connection and can't even download updates right. Waste of money, and I'll forever hate EA for this. And for the crappy 007 game I bought years ago.

EA Sports used to be good. Had all the NHL series from 98 to 2003 when I was younger, had no complaints.

Maybe I expect too much from a "tried and true" company like EA. Maybe they are just too big to make a quality support system.

Don't get me wrong, when BFBC2 worked, it was awesome, one of my favorites, even though I was a total noob who couldn't even fly a helicopter for more than 4 seconds before crashing.

ok, end rant. If anybody knows an easier way to patch up to current version, post up a link.

Goes without saying, I probably didn't get a BF3 trial.

I'm honestly not sure how I got selected. I haven't played a Battlefield game in over 4 years. I will give this one a try though.

I hope this comes out for PS3 soon. Battlefield 2 BC was great...although I hardly ever play games.

That sucks. I am sure you are allowed to tell us what you think of it though right?

You can only get invited by EA....to tell you the truth...It is pretty cool, but your not missing much. I need to learn all of the controls on the game. I suck.
