  1. Yay yay yay!!! Can’t wait to try this out and day 1 on PS4 too!!

  2. 21st Nov for Europe? That’s a week before the PS4 is out. Nice one.

    Looking forward to the open beta (demo)

    • ah read that wrong, so its a week earlier on Xbox One than the PS4. I guess the console it out earlier so thats fair enough. So it will be on the 29th.

      • They’ll all be hitting day one for next gen consoles, across the industry. So for Ubisoft, Watch Dogs will be out on PS4 in the US half a week before any other platform or region, here we have this split between the various release dates.

  3. Open beta? So you don’t have to have pre-ordered BF4 to get it? If so, awesome!

    • For those who bought MOH or pre-ordered BF4 through Origin have a closed beta for about 4 days before the start of the open beta, to everyone.

      • It was revealed that those who pre-ordered Medal of Honor: Warfighter would gain exclusive access to the Battlefield 4 Beta. DICE later announced that those who had pre-ordered the Battlefield Digital Deluxe edition, or were Battlefield Premium members, would also have access to the beta.

        The beta will become available for pre-download on September 28, 2013 with the exclusive beta then starting on October 1, 2013. It will then be available to everyone else on October 4, 2013 and ending on October 15, 2013. The map that will be featured in the beta is Siege of Shanghai on Conquest.[2]

      • Thanks for the info!

  4. Woohoo!

    I’m looking forward to falling into sink holes and getting stuck on walls. As well as downloading 2GB patches.

    Cynicism aside, the last two; BF3 and MoH Betas had little bearing because EA released the game with bugs anyway.
