Solution to get a key as a German:

Hrhr, the German age verification and Facebook are totally hammered. I was unable to get a key.

So I thought, let's try some VPN. Fired up Hotspotshield, fired up Origin and got a "Bad Gateway" (does not mean it happens for you too) message in Origin. So I switched the language settings between US English and UK English until the store worked. Went to "Free Games" and was able to add the beta directly through Origin and got it instantly registered with a licensed key.

Me Gusta

Is it just me or the textures in Caspian are a lot worse than Op. Metro? I have mine on Ultra and still look too ...meh.Especially when using the rifle scope....Could it just be a LoD issue?

Hmmmmm.....


Yeah I've noticed a LOD issue when using sniper scopes, it's like in the distance detailed textures don't load up properly. I only notice that if using the sniper scopes though.

i never cared, like i said, i do have a proper origin account, with games in it (bf 2 , addons + bf2142 + addon) , while my "EA account" is blank. why it wouldnt let me use my Origin account to download the beta, i will never understand lol.

Indeed.

I preordered this (and Shift 2) on an EA account, was automatically converted to an Origin account. You made a new Origin account yourself?

also just be clear, Origin isnt new, its EA's 3rd or 4th pathetic attempt. before it was EA Download Manager (EADM) and before that it was EA Link. My "Origin" Account was a EA Link originally.

this is weird. my game is extremely laggy, audio is choppy and repeating itself, and weapons disappear from my hands. totally unplayable.

actually, it's not weird, since it's beta, but I haven't seen anyone with same problems. maybe it's faulty on my end.

fucking piece of shit software, shitty fucking interface, noautoconnect , list refresh is useless

origin is such a fucking piece of shit, why couldn't they just do it like every game does it, a simple list, not this mumbo jumbo
click on server with even 1 slot remaining, connect, not click on server refreshes and guess what, it's full ... FUUUUU an double click doesnt do shit
