This is not related to the beta promised to Medal of Honor: Limited Edition owners, which is due this September. EA are ”not giving away keys” to the alpha.
For a chance to be invited to this very exclusive alpha phase testing you need to ”make sure to register for our newsletter and ensure your Veteran status is up to date,” informs the Battlefield 3 blog post. Don’t expect key giveaways through social networks either.
What’s in the alpha? ”It is a highly tech focused test period where the main purpose is to do a number of server related tests in preparation for game launch requiring a set amount of players online to ensure the final experience is as much fun and easy as possible.”
”…this is an Alpha Trial, meaning this software is still not at the “Beta” development milestone. The Open Beta will start in September. The exact date for when Medal of Honor: Limited Edition players can join the Beta will be announced at a later date.”
Battlefield 3 releases on Xbox 360, PS3 and PC in late October.
