With the open beta now out...Origin is the reason NOT to get this game.

 

-Download a ~70 meg SteamOrigin client

-Download BF3 open beta

-Launch game only for it to open your web browser

-Download browser plugin for Origin

-Launch game again. Browser opens again.

-Press launch game only for Origin to tell me my video drivers aren't quite up to date. (11.5. Needs 11.7)

-Launch game again.

-Click quick match through browser

-Click connect

-Game launches right into a server so that's the only time you can change your settings while you're getting shot at.

-Try to rebind keys only to notice mouse buttons aren't detected by the game.

-Uninstall and settle for worse controls/graphics on the PS3.

 

EA really dropped the ball with Origin and BF3...what's wrong with Steam? The peace of mind? The convenience? People who actually use it? Come on, EA...

No BF3 on steam would make me a sad panda. What the heck is origin? I can only have so many game clients on my computer!

 

But how awesome is that caspian map?

 

Origin is EA "answer" to Steam.

You need it to play Bf3 on the PC, also need a browser plugin to play on any server, also need an EA account to play it all on Origin.
