Medal of Honor Disc Required to Play BF3 Beta

In a recent tweet from Battlefield, it has been revealed that you will indeed need the Medal of Honor disc if you wish to gain access to the Battlefield 3 beta.

Quote
CodyReed:

@Battlefield, I bought MOH: LE for the 360. How exactly will I access the Battlefield 3 Beta early? Will I need the MOH disc?

Battlefield:

@CodyReed, Yes you will need the disc, you will have to play it off of there ^CT

PC beta is ready to be released but as a multi-platform simultaneous release, they have to wait for the go from Sony (PS3) and Microsoft (Xbox360).

It's a trusted source, Karl Magnus himself at Paris Battlefield 3 presentation.

It is thus easily understandable by deduction that they have no real date for the PC release, we just have to wait again...



fake?
for me, seems very reasonable.

That actually seems plausible. And I think Microsoft are the ones holding it back mostly. Their TOS is absolutely terrible and anything that gets released needs approval and all kind of shit, but it's not as easy or as open as PS3, it's much more complicated. So I wouldn't be surprised if that's holding the beta back. One part of MS TOS for LIVE says: If a title is multi platform, it needs to be released either before hand OR simultaneously on the Xbox, otherwise MS will refuse to publish it on LIVE. So DICE has to go by their rules or else MS will get cocky.

It would be extremely annoying for us but it kinda makes sense; they probably don't want to discriminate console players even more than they already did Razz

Excuse me, are you from the past?


What if the apocalypse happens and it wipes out steam HQ. You think your steam account with all those digital purchases will be worth anything? Id rather have physical copies of games with real boxes and manuals

If that ever happens, Valve themselves said they will make all games DRM free and let people back them up/save them. So you don't lose any games even if Steam shuts down.
Edit: And if the apocalypse happened I think games would be your least worry.
Edit2: Also, in case of that, Zombies would probably eat your physical game copies, they can't eat digital ones.

Well, if Steam HQ got wiped out with all the database servers, you still wouldn't be able to play your games, be it digital or not, since they are Steamworks-based. Cool Face

Alright lets say Steam HQ gets wiped out during the next 50 or even 100 years and the physical copies no longer work since most of them require steam. The digital copies become worthless. But the physical copies can be considered antique/collectible items

There are other digital stores besides Steam. Plus, Steam will be a multi-mega-corporation with tentacles all over the Earth in the next 50 years, so they'll be having a few hundred HQs by then. Laughing

Yet they still hold the PC beta release because the console companies have to approve it.

I love you DICE but that's a really bad move.
