Thx for the email announcement Cain. Dumpy is back, but will have to build a new gaming PC. The one I build for UT3 barely meets the minimums.

Join the upgrade group.. there are many threads on upgrading and you have a week to get into the beta. Take a look at pre-ordering so you can get the back to karkland map and start the beta on tuesday.

I don't think they'll change it just for the beta to be 64

Yes, one week from today we Origin pre-order folks start the BETa..

Heck yeah! I am so pumped. Any word if we will be able to pre-load the beta? Would be nice.

Well, being as I was on my Honeymoon when I found out I was in the Alpha, then the alpha was over before I left said Honeymoon, I do not want to miss this Beta! Now that I'm settled into a new state, a new job, with my new Wife, perhaps I can now relate to you family veterans

It's been a long time and I miss the times I had on the Cain's Lair servers, but completely look forward to fighting alongside you all once again!

[Tuqui-tuqui]

Oh man! I can't wait!

The thing that is getting to me is that its going to the the same Metro map as in alpha. Granted, not everyone got to play in alpha but I can only play that same map so many times before I get bored. I hope they spice things up a bit.

Remember the BF2 beta/demo where everyone played the hell out of the map,(cant remember which it was now, damn old age) then when the game was released the servers would empty when that map came up in rotation?

[Cain]

I think Gulf of Oman was the BF2 Demo map.....

Hey, it is fantastic to see so many old names popping back up here again...

We are going to have one probably two 64 player Ranked Conquest servers on the first day the game is available.. 10/25
