Bf3: Wow

[tinybobdfa]

I just checked my e-mails and was shocked to find out that I have been asked to play the Alpha trials of BF3 how cool is that lol!!!!!

Now I really do have to get Windows 7 LOL!!!

[tinybobdfa]

Can anyone tell me the official release date for BF3 please!

Also just because I got this everyone should check there email addresses to see if they are lucky too!!!

Oh and it has to be the email address you use to play BF2!

[tinybobdfa]

Well I have been playing all night without sleep just to say Flippin (would have used stronger words lol) hell this game is amazing one or two issues I found with the game but the gameplay is all there!!!!

Hi Tiny

I got the email yesterday too & was playing until about 3.30 in the morning

What's your Origin name I can friend you then & maybe we can hook up? Mine is Lt-Gav.

I think it's a region thing as my currently active British [JiF] friends got invites, but only heard from 1 US based that got the nod.

Looking in the forums, most of the posters are Europeans

Oh I forgot to add that playing BFBC2 the release date showing at the bottom of main screen is something like 25 or 26 October. Can't remember exactly which

[tinybobdfa]

The strange thing is on my email it says would you like a nice birthday present for your birthday on the 12th of October!!!!!!
Well of course I would My bosses have already paid for it for me LOL!!!!!
As an extra bonus they sent me a SSD with Windows 7 running on it using exactly the same set up as my Testing rig, oh course I phoned them up and thanked them for over 30 mins lol!!!!! (brown nosing gets you all sorts of things that are nice in my job lol)
Just look for tinybob as always!!!!
I can't play tonight though!!!!! got to be up at 05:00 on Friday :-(

I also got the invite -- am downloading now. Origin name is PatchAdamsCDN. I can see you, Gav, but can't find you, tinybob.

[tinybobdfa]

Well you will not be seeing me for a bit now!!!!!
BF3 keeps on giving me the BSoD
So I reformated my HD or so I thought, instead I reformated my back up drive loosing over 2Tb of stuff including everything BF2 and other stuff!!!!!

So looks like I have a few days of downloading everything I need again!!!!! :-(

Thank god I backed all my maps up on Media Fire!!!!

See you soon everyone have fun whilst I'm away!!!!
