When the Beta download went live, all the mirror sites and even the EA site itself had crashed. Now, I posted this update on my clans site.

Quick Update. EA has gotten their shit in order now. Kinda. I went back to the site where you can choose a list of mirrors to download and I tried the FilePlanet link again. It worked this time, but in order to DL the beta from there, they've made it so you have to pay like 7 bucks to download. I was like, "fuck it" and payed and now I'm downloading at 1.7 MB per second. So I'm content. I was willing to cough over the money, but some others may not be. IDK about other sites that are on the mirror list, but this was worth it in my mind. Also, from what I've seen and heard, there are no official torrents right now, but I'm trying to set that up with a friend of mine who has a server with a 100MB pipe. So I'll see if I can convince him to post the beta on his site if you've gotten a key and don't want to pay.

Peace out.

EDIT: I've decided, that if you have a BFBC2 Beta key and don't feel like paying the money to download, contact me through PM on this site and I'll give you the info to my account on FilePlanet so you can download it. I'll change the password 3 hours after I give you the information and correct links.

Set up a .torrent. You need to get your own key. heres the link.
