You doing this in Origin or web browser. Try this for some answers http://forum.ea.com/eaforum/posts/li....page#16274929 I seen a post about it not long ago but can not find it..

Bingo the Origin purchasing FAQ ...http://forum.ea.com/eaforum/posts/list/7498599.page

Origin is buggy as hell. I keep trying to add TPU members to my friend list, but it says I'm not connected to the internet.

Dice combined with EA's new Origin service is going to be the most buggiest game launch in the history of video games with BF3.

Given their track record I don't see any other alternative.

Seems PS3 gets back to Karkand a week before us, sadly.

Quote:
THE BUZZ: According to Sony and DICE, PlayStation 3 owners will get a one week head-start to enjoy upcoming Battlefield 3 DLC.
In a post on the official PlayStation blog, Tommy Rydling from DICE announced that all Battlefield 3 expansions will arrive one week early on Sony’s system. He wrote, “You’ll be happy to know that beginning with our first expansion pack Battlefield 3: Back to Karkand (to be released later this year), all full-blown upcoming expansion packs for the game will appear one week early exclusively on PS3, brought to you by Sony!”
He went on to outline the Back to Karkand expansion, which features the most popular maps from Battlefield 2, all updated with the Frostbite 2 engine.
EGM’s TAKE: One week might not sound like a lot, but it goes to show how seriously game companies take even the smallest advantage in today’s

Thats what everyone whos following a game series or developer says about the next release, especially in the MMO community. DICE has nothing on WoW at launch, there was times when all of the servers were down for 2 - 3 days at a time, and that continued for months after it released.

It's true, but the revamp looks pretty insane. A week isn't a huge deal, but the changes do look awesome.

Battlefieldo - BF3 Achievements

We’d like to warn you here in advance that this could be a spoiler for some players, so if you like surprises, DON’T LOOK!
We have all the Battlefield 3 Achievements thanks to Majin Martin93. These have been taken from the Xbox 360 and contain all the single player achievements, including their names and the Mission they take place. At this point we do not know what version of the game these are from, but it’s speculated that this is from a developer version of the game. The screenshots we’re leaked early this morning on Majin Martin93′s Imgur Gallery. We’ve broken them down and posted the Achievements below.

***SPOILER ALERT***

Yes but that was what those fucks who hijacked Flight 93 on 9/11 were screaming in Arabic (amongst other things like Up! Up! No Down!) according to the flight recorder transcript. Not that I should expect everyone to know that and probably should have just not posted that at all.

WoW's launch was epic in every way. I still love trolling WoW forums on patch day to read people bitching about an hour or two extra that WoW is down. And IIRC it continued like that for just over a year after it launched.

Surprising that that is the full list, but I suppose thats just for achieves, not for pins and such, but BC2 had more for MP I thought.

Yep, it was bad, but the people who weren't there to experience, who started later are all cottled, and they think an hour or two is the end of the world. I played Age of Conan at launch and it was great, servers never went down, was so happy, but missions got thin around level 55 and everyone just cries about it. All I thought was, "at least your able to login to the damn game". Oh well.

The way I feel about it is I won't deny the existence of a higher being, but I question it and what ever makes people
comfortable with impending death is their business. Just please spare me the details

So I got an email from BF3 with recommended requirements and did some GPU research an comparisons on http://www.hwcompare.com/10564/radeo...adeon-hd-6870/.
I may switch to green. The GTX 570 seems to beat the 6950 for around the same money. My GTX 460 for $99 tears thru everything at 720P. Go ahead flame me that is why I posted it
