Howdy Sonova,

 

 

This is what I found out...UK release is the 28th...

 

Since the announcement of Battlefield 3 having several release dates, users have been wondering if they’d be able to play on the US date. It seems as though Battlefield 3 will actually be region locked. In other words, those of you who are hoping to play the game on the 25th outside of North America will have some hoops to jump.  There is one way around it, use a North American Based VPN and you should be able to play Battlefield 3 via origin on October 25th. While this may come as a shock to a lot of you who have pre-ordered a US Copy to play on the first date, remember that given the distribution of the game, it was expected to be region locked. Before you get angry at DICE and make petitions, pre order cancels or boycotts, remember that this decision was not theirs and via a VPN you can get around this.

I'm not sure what you are expecting but maybe you should read this:

http://www.battlefield3community.com/f80/battlefield-3-pc-requires-origin-installation-819/

 

DICE has confirmed that even retail copies of Battlefield 3 will require the installation of EA's download manager and online store Origin

 

Or here:

http://www.1up.com/news/even-retail-copies-battlefield-3-require-origin

 

Battlefield 3 players will, as they found out during the recent alpha test, find servers and join games from the Battlelog website, meaning you'll need to use your browser in order to play Battlefield 3. On top of that, it's been confirmed that no matter where you buy it, BF3 requires you to have Origin in order to play.

 

The requirement only exists for PC gamers -- those playing on Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3 will only need an EA account, which isn't much of a hurdle to jump through (and odds are, if you've played an EA game online before, you already have one anyway).

 

Those PC gamers won't be able to avoid the requirement, either. No matter where you plan on buying the PC game from -- Direct2Drive, GameStop, Best Buy -- you'll need an Origin account to play BF3 whether or not you opted for a physical copy of the game. That's according to DICE's global Battlefield community manager, Daniel Matros, who confirmed the news on Twitter earlier this week.
