I can't tell you a Beta Date, because I don't know a Beta Date.

That and you touch yourself at night. That's the real root of the problem.

Aye. Pre-ordered the limited edition on Origin last night for €50 - will get all the parts by pre-ordering that way. Does anyone remember how much was BFBC2 when pre-ordered though Steam?

I can 100% say the 26th or 27th it will start 4 weeks before the release . DICE always has betas 4 week before release like MoH and BFBC2.
