Release day is likely to be a nightmare anyways. Usually is with a DICE release.

Well, Origin was charging me extra $8 for shipping to Canada. Decided screw it, pre-ordered on Amazon but the estimated ship date according to them is Oct 28

Beginning to lean towards digital download. If I download it onto a secondary hard-drive and later upgrade my PC, I would still be able to install/play from the same disk?

Get a birthday discount code from EA for Origin purchases. I had one arrive in my inbox a little while back since my birthday was yesterday. i think it was 15% or 20% off any game (including BF3).

Still wasn't worth diving into the game early for me, but if you must buy it, look into that.

Or hell, looking again it's 25% off...

Yeah... got the same Quick... my birthday was Saturday. $45 instead of $60 isn't a bad discount...

Well, happy birthday! You're in good company.

$45 is tempting... but I'm still pretty sore at them for BC2.

I can't find the place to change my birthdate.......

I doubt you can change it.

DICE has produced a candidate for the next game client update for BFBC2 PC. If this is deemed good enough, it will become the official patch, and will be pushed out to everyone. For now though, the patch is still in Beta.

FINE THEN!

........

Just put my money down at gamestop.
Fella there said there was talk about them being open at midnight for the game, but said he wasn't sure because the schedule was not out yet.
