Only 1 player/Account per CD key for BF3
« on: October 08, 2011, 02:16:06 PM »
A repport between EA and Dice + comments in the link from future players do not like that...

Egidio.

Have come across this bit of news about BF3 for those of us that like to create multiple accounts/characters for so if we want to develope/train with our accounts you will need more than one CD key

               

                http://bf3blog.com/2011/08/only-one-battlefield-3-soldier-allowed-per-player/

               

                Kind regards NigNog/John

No issue, but an extra $60 down the drain...

jumping to conclusion way too fast.  suck or not to suck is not the question.
They don't want more than one person to play with a cd-key. That's for profits. Up to now, they only have 1.5 million pre-ordered copies, less than what was expected.  Limiting one nick per key was the decision of share holders, and not developers. And they expect this will boost their sales. However, if they don't reach at least 10 million copies... Battlefield franchise is dead...

Quote
We hope that this isn’t the final decision regarding player profiles and that DICE reconsiders keeping the feature that was present in many Battlefield games. And while we can understand why EA would tightly integrate Battlefield 3 into Origin, this is perhaps taking it a step too far.
Like I said... the end of Battlefield!

For me the nick is personal, and I won't feel ok if a bro or a friend plays with my nick on my comp. Some of our older members can witness that time when me and my bro played with the same nick. Confusion was among everyone.

I won't buy the game right now, I'll wait till the price drops to $30. Anyways, one of you guys with a hard copy of BF3 will send me an .ISO, and I'll use the crack to play in single mod and on cracked servers as well,  like I did for BF2 in its first year. Games are way behind my priorities these days, kids, wife and work is all that counts for now. It's why our website is still a little shitty!

not a pb ban but a pbban via PBGUID. And only if both servers stream pbbans (the one you got banned, and the one you want to join) + the server you want to join must have enforce MBi Bans activated.

Then you create a whole new account with origins... no biggie

This is getting stupider...

New update again:
E.

NaNa@NaNa@17

Finally, some good news after all the heartbreak we’ve had to endure with EA’s Origin, Battlelog, lack of multiple soldiers etc. Now EA has released an online service where users can change their Origin username. It still looks like we’ll be able to have only one soldier in Battlefield 3, so chose your username wisely. Previously, players could update their name through an iOS app. Either that, or write to EA support, which, given its sheer incompetence, didn’t seem to provide much help to many players.

ORIGIN Name Change Now Made Possible...

EA has made it possible for users to change their ORIGIN login name now, however Battlefield 3 Battlelog will continue to only allow one soldier name per game purchase. To change your ORIGIN name, simply GO HERE . The link is also posted in the "Server Status" menu on the Armory website.

BF3 installed!!! Nick changed thanks to Born to Die :) :)
Karkand expansion on the way and Teamspeak.  I'll also be upgrading my ISP service to 60down/3up Mbps next month. Not yet the 120/20 which is still $149 a month.  I will be on the battlefield tonight for the smackdown.

You'll recognize me, don't worry. btw, I'm still in your friends on origin, so I guess you can see it there.

Karkand bought this afternoon, graphic driver updated for BF3, and the game runs great. My Girl was impressed of the details at ultra settings. Anyways, I will lower the settings to assure I have 100FPS which is the best frame rate for my eyes even though my brain doesn't see it.

I'm installing TS3 at the moment, and going out to grab something for diner. I'll be back for 7:00pm central usa. See you on the battlefield.

Leader??? Are you crazy. Being under my command means being dead.
Although, friend invite accepted.
