A lot of folks are reporting that they still haven’t received their beta keys — which isn’t a surprise, since the beta won’t be starting for another 5 or so hours at the earliest (5 AM PST). According to DICE (via Twitter), beta keys will be sent out around 1PM to 3PM, CET (Central European Time) — roughly 3-5 hours from now. Here’s a run down when beta keys will be sent out in your local time:
US Pacific time: 4 AM – 6 AM
US Eastern time: 7 AM – 9 AM
Europe: 1 PM – 3 PM
Australia (AEST): 9 PM – 11 PM
Japan: 8 PM -11 PM JST
Note that the above times are for PC and Xbox 360 beta, the PlayStation 3 version still remains uncertain.
We’ve also got confirmation that the beta weighs in at 3.9 GB. This could cause a great deal of stress on EA’s servers, which makes sense why beta key giveaways are spread out by a few hours.
