    Default Battlefield 3 Alpha?

    Anybody else in on it?

    "If the policy of the government, upon vital questions affecting the whole people, is to be irrevocably fixed by decisions of the Supreme Court...the people will have ceased to be their own rulers, having to that extent practically resigned the government into the hands of that eminent tribunal."

    Negative. Looks good though.

    I'm still wary of DICE as they tend to release broken games that need a lot of patching before they are worthy of a play. Bad Company 2 was awful at release, but its not too bad now.

    Also no mod support for dubious (well, CA-style) reasons.

    Well we have the general NDAs going on for us, so no screenies or pretty much any media of the game. I think we might be able to get away with describing it though.

    It says to register for the newsletter and make sure your vet status is up to date.
    I had both for a while now.

    Went onto the BF3 alpha site, said I was denied for some reason. I think you need to be a vet of 3 BF games to be allowed in. I only have 2.

    Looking at the gameplay videos... When did Battlefield become another Call of Duty?

    Any more impressions? Surely it can't be bad if it looks like this:
