I must be getting old and out of the loop because I don't recognize either of those CPUs.

Ah, good. Now I can make sense of it.

I am conflicted. For ten year old me, this is dreams made digital flesh. I get to run around as a storm trooper (or a whiney rebel) and engage in gun fights and fly a Tie Fighter. Adult me realizes that I haven't played a Battlefield game since 2, and even then it was a short marriage. I broke up with Titanfall a few months after launch because it got ... I don't know boring?
This will definitely not be a day one purchase for me, and even though the larger player base will end up on the consoles in the year of our Lord Two Thousand and Fifteen I still cannot bring myself to play an FPS on a console. It's frustrating having Franklin shoot people in GTA V (and those shooting range challenges can fuck right off).
What say you?

Yeah it's a tough call for me too. The game looks massively appealing to me, but I'm no longer a competitive multiplayer gamer. But if I don't jump on it immediately, I'll NEVER be able to catch up and be able to hold my own. I tried to get into Titanfall late after release and it was a god damn nightmare and extremely frustrating. I will try the beta for PC and PS4 to see if it's an experience I can't live without, but I have a feeling I'll just stick to watching other people play it and listening to other people's experiences.

Slightly more useful quote:

•For PlayStation 4, the Beta will be available in the PSN Store. For Xbox One, players can find it in the Xbox Live Marketplace. On Origin for PC, it will be under the Demo & Betas section of the Origin store.

SOOOOOO MUCH THIS.
DICE knows these betas are pretty much demos at this point and you should be willing to use them as such.
Also, I think some people here who recently got into BF4 can confirm that.-
....confirm that you are not perpetually behind and prevented from having fun if you join late.

Where do I sign up / download the beta? I just built a new PC this weekend that's slightly over the recommended specs, can't wait to push it.

Just get Origin and you are good.

Further details (so I can have one post to refer people to in the future).

awesome, thank you sir

Preloading will be available on PC the day before, too. I think a little after midnight tonight?

Still no confirmation of DX12/Vulkan/Mantle support. Would be kinda lame if BF4, BF Hardline, and Plants vs Zombies have Mantle support but Battlefield doesn't.

*but Battlefront doesn't
