Battlefield 3 - PC

[Dectomax]

Just a quick heads up for those of you who don't know, The Battlefeild 3 Alpha "Tech" test has been released for the PC. I'd recommend checking your Emails/EA accounts. Note, this isn't a "Beta". This is a Tech test. They have limited numbers so I'd suggest checking quickly.

I myself got an invitation to it, but alas, my computer won't run it!

And to add discussion value, do you think Alpha/Beta tests are a good idea and what effect do you believe they have on the final product?

Edit - on second thought, this is getting replies, delete the other one!

they're a very cost-effective way of testing things like server load, hardware compatibility and input device variety.

I would love it, but my computer is ANCIENT. I mean, it's so old, if tech archeologists saw it they would try and put it in a museum. :'-(

My pc could possibly run it, but sadly I don't have an invite...

It would be hilarious if most of the people who got invites couldn't run it and most of the people who could run the game not get invites.

I would laugh for a few hours if that happened! XD

If I wasn't one of those who couldn't run it, I would join you in that laughter. As it is, I'm going to go cry in a corner.
