officially announced at E3 today, shipping this fall developed by Visceral. It enters beta TODAY for PC and PS4, get into the beta here

Closed Beta Signup - Battlefield - Official EA Site

It took me 4-5 tries but I got in for PC although the "Get it Now" button at the end isn't really doing anything for me, and I don't see it in Origin yet.

Its basically a polished version of Payday 2. Definitely worth playing beta before buying, since BF4 launch sucked hard. Also will probably be 50% off sale on black friday, based on previous EA patterns.

got an email 2 mins later from Origin confirming I "purchased" Hardline beta for $0, still not showing up in Origin but hopefully that fixes itself in a few hours

I already own bf3 and bf4 on PC so dunno if that got me in instantly, I also signed up again for BF4 on PS4 and got a "we will email you if you got in!" message, not instant access. Don't own BF4 PS4.

also just checked the origin store, in USA regular is $60 digital deluxe (gold battlepacks) is $70. On Mexico origin store (hola VPN plugin) its $40 regular and $50 for deluxe. I really wouldn't pre-order though, its gonna go on big sales soon after release.

If you are having issues you have to give Origin a second to catch up. Took about 30 seconds to 1 min for the actual beta to show up under my games. Servers are getting hammered I am sure.

Can anyone else confirm that ziplines can take down helicopters? I did a bit of experimenting and it DOES indeed look like if I run into a zipline as a helicopter it crashes the vehicle. Not sure if I ran into a levolution though since a building also went down at the same time.

played a couple games, pretty fun but it seems to be built on top of a older build of bf4. A bug I saw a few months ago, my display not going fullscreen when I start and staying windowed until I toggle settings, was back with this beta. The game also crashed twice on me when i was fucking around on a motorcycle. load times also seem atrocious, against a raided SSD too.

definitely cool but can't see paying full price for this, its basically reskinned bf4 with a lot of tweaks.

I actually had insane loading times playing BF4 the other day and I have a SSD as well. I didn't get in instantly so they may be full as of now.

Oh I agree, Origin will only get money from me when they have insane sales on their products.
