Just a little heads up if your brought a physical copy of the game, just got mine ( a day early [wink] ) and when you go to install it open through origin with the status 'downloading'.

I naturally thought the entire game was going to download and all i got was two empty discs and cd key, so i did a little research. Iif you look at the download speed, it is actually 'downloading' from the disc (unless my internet has decided to start download at 10mb/s)

So, just a heads up don't worry if the status says downloading.

The games alot fun and there is alot servers and players.A couple updates for browser and a patch I think but so far no problems alot fun.Game play is silky smooth for me with i7 and sli and graphics look awsome just like you were there even though only running dx 10.1 with good frame rate and high graphics settings. My only gripe is no in game voip and browser is glitchy , as you set filters to look for server your paying for hard to find and not on list. I think dice was overwhemled a little by amout servers and players, but thats a GOOD thing. Anybody looking for a server come Join us at all out war ={soc}= 64 man conquest server., just put soc in your filter and add us a favorites.

yo im having issues getting it to play the game in 'online' mode on origin, i can ( from what ive done ) only play it in 'offline' mode. I dl the origin like 3 times and installed it that same amount of times. Ive installed the game and then when i go to battlelog it says it needs an update so i click on update and it takes me to the ea store to 'buy' the game....seriously wth??? or even when it doesnt take me to the store it just freaking times out when trying to reach the server for the store on origin....im frankly getting fed up of this run around....ive already updated my dx drivers. I meet all the requirements and then some, and its day 2 heading into day 3 and i cant freaking play the game in 'online'. I kinda feel like im being ripped off xD...[mad]

Well when i installed my copy, i put the disc in and it reinstalled origin for some reason. Then 'downloaded' the game from the disc, then downloaded a patch around 450mb.

When i run the game browser i had to update the battle log plugin and it was good to go.

Did you type in your product key? You can do this through origin, think i used 'redeem code' for mine.

Origin had a major crash or some other such issue yesterday. No one was able to connect. They had it resolved by late afternoon my local time.

Keep trying and it will work out. Just wanted you to know that for most of yesterday it was not going to go Online for you.

I will plug my server so you have at least one somewhat familiar place to go...
