I noticed that a previous beta was posted and quite popular, so thought I'd post that the final, open beta, phase is now live.

Just login to Origin and it'll be there.

Not bad really, a bit laggy at times, needs to be tuned a bit before release, but my favorite since 1942!

PC (Origin)
· Make sure your PC meets the disk space and system requirements.
· Launch Origin.
· Find and download the Battlefield Hardline Open Beta.
· Once installation is complete, launch the Beta from Origin. This will direct you to Battlelog.
· Choose a game mode and server in Battlelog to start playing.

PlayStation 4 / PlayStation 3
· Head to the PlayStation Store.
· Find and download the Battlefield Hardline Open Beta.
· Once installation is complete, launch the Beta from the main Playstation menu.
· Note that PS4 owners need an active PlayStation+ Subscription.

Xbox One / Xbox 360
· Make sure you have an active Xbox Live subscription.
· Head to Xbox Live.
· Find and download the Battlefield Hardline Open Beta.
· Once installation is complete, launch the Beta from the main menu.

    The state of the game last year is vastly superior to the product now on show. The game is clunky, animations are bad (especially running/walking), servers are unstable. This game should be F2P. Battlefield Heroes is better.

    Fairly large discussion on the current beta on Reddit

    • milfey on 04/02/2015 - 21:11

      I agree. It looks and plays horribly like a F2P game.

    • Shaw on 04/02/2015 - 21:12

      I've heard the same stated by others, although I'm not really into harshly judging a game by a pre-release version. I can't say I'll be buying it, maybe once it's on sale at Origin MX, but it's better than the other BF games I've played in the last few years, in any state.

      • Kozhutki on 04/02/2015 - 21:17

        I would have had the same reservations about the game last year knowing how long there is still left until the game is released, however the game is released next month. Not a lot is going to change in that time frame. Glad you enjoy it though.

        • Shaw on 04/02/2015 - 21:20

          I've tested, beta and alpha, many games, and have often been surprised by the amount of change that can happen in the short time between last beta and release. I don't necessarily believe that this will be one of those cases though.

          It is fun for a beta, and as stated above, would be a good F2P game, having to pay for it, that is a different matter.

    • Krabboss on 05/02/2015 - 05:13

      It's possible it's a legitimate beta rather than an advertising beta. I remember Battlefield 3 was extremely busted during its beta.

      • furythree on 06/02/2015 - 10:30

        it wasnt that bad

  • Chall5 on 04/02/2015 - 21:20

    How big is the PS4 download ?

    • Shaw on 04/02/2015 - 21:21

      Just like with Xbox consoles, you can't pre-install or pre-load the Battlefield Hardline beta on your PS4 or PS3. Instead, you're going to have to wait until the beta drops on February 3 and wait for it to download and install. You're looking at a download size of between 10 – 11GB on PS4 and just under 4GB for PS3.

      • Pepsi to go on 04/02/2015 - 21:27

        This is gonna take awhile.11 hour's remaining.

        i downloaded the First Beta last year and was hoping there would be a update for it so i don't need to download BFH again but that wasn't the case so now i'm downloading a 11gb beta again.

        • Shaw on 04/02/2015 - 21:30

          ADSL? :(

          I was getting max line on Origin ~7MBps.

        • Pepsi to go on 04/02/2015 - 21:39

          @Shaw:

          ADSL2+

          checked speed test and here is my hopeless download speed 0.80mps.

          I just wish they laid the NBN cable already.

        • Shaw on 04/02/2015 - 21:42

          @Pepsi to go:

          Really? Surely there is something not right there…

          How far are you from the exchange?

          Actually, no, sounds about right… been so long.

        • Pepsi to go on 04/02/2015 - 21:46

          @Shaw:

          Are you on NBN?

          Ran the speed test again and got 1.23mbps now.

        • Shaw on 04/02/2015 - 21:48

          @Pepsi to go:

          I'm on VDSL. Basically faster copper.

          Is that MBps or Mbps?

        • Axelstrife on 04/02/2015 - 23:11

          @Pepsi to go: Same speed as me mate.
          it sucks doesnt it.
          Thats why i don't bother with timed betas like these with my slow ass download speeds.

        • Pepsi to go on 05/02/2015 - 07:49

          @holden93:

          Got 5 Hours left.
          I left my PS4 on overnight.

  • mr kindface on 04/02/2015 - 21:24

    For those wondering, 9.6gb dl for PC

    • sween64 on 04/02/2015 - 22:05

      Expands to 11.4GB.

  • nubzy on 04/02/2015 - 21:31

    This game is terrible.

  • iwantmoney on 04/02/2015 - 21:56

    I can't find the download on ps3 playstation store, can anyone help? And is an active PS+ acc needed to download beta on ps3?

    • Shaw on 04/02/2015 - 22:08

      Possibly.

      It doesn't say either way though..

    • plasmapuff on 04/02/2015 - 22:47

      You need Ps+. As it is online multiplayer.

      • iwantmoney on 06/02/2015 - 15:17

        nope, I think people with normal PSN just had delayed access. I just downloaded it myself.

  • sheikyerbouti on 04/02/2015 - 22:02

    Seems a cross between COD and Counter Strike. Yawn. Back to BF3/4 for me.

    • sween64 on 04/02/2015 - 22:06

      Heist mode especially. Hotwire is fun for a laugh. BF4 gameplay is still more enjoyable.

  • chillipaste on 04/02/2015 - 22:32

    it really does suck - i was really hoping to find the next cs:go replacement - cs:go is just too full of hackers, and the genuine players are mostly leaving.

    i'm sick of cs:go and its hackers :(

  • Draxxx on 04/02/2015 - 23:16

    Nope. I don't consider beta testing a bargain.

    • Tal_Shiar on 04/02/2015 - 23:21

      how is it not? just because you don't pay money upfront for it doesn't mean it can't save you money in the long run, just don't be so narrow minded…

      • PoxyRadical on 05/02/2015 - 00:19
        +1

        So the bargain is that you never end up buying the game?

        • Tal_Shiar on 05/02/2015 - 00:29

          It all depends on how you like the game wouldn't it..,

      • Draxxx on 05/02/2015 - 08:38

        How exactly are you saving money by doing work (beta testing) for a company that should be paying their staff for the testing? Guess you don't remember that it took Dice 8 months to iron out the bugs in BF4.

        • Tal_Shiar on 05/02/2015 - 13:08

          So then you can answer your own question can't you?

        • Draxxx on 06/02/2015 - 09:14

          @Tal_Shiar:
          Right, so you're saying the bargain is that you're doing paid work for free.
          Best. Bargain. Ever.

        • furythree on 06/02/2015 - 10:32

          @Draxxx:

          not everyone views beta testing as work

          some view it as getting an exclusive sneak peak before release

          time=money

          and you get to enjoy the preview of the beta version of the game without wasting time waiting for it to drop

          Also its a free demo before you buy

        • Tal_Shiar on 06/02/2015 - 20:37

          @Draxxx: I am saying it's an opportunity to test the game to see how you like it and adjust your purchase decision accordingly…. do you want to pay full price for a bad game? It sure sounds like you do…..

        • Draxxx on 09/02/2015 - 08:08

          @furythree:
          I get your point. And I understand why people participate.
          I guess I'm trying to say not everything that is free is a bargain.

          @Tal_Shiar:
          Technically, you're not testing the game. You're testing a "pre-final" build, so its hardly a sure way to gauge what you'll be purchasing.
          Secondly, I learnt from the BF4 debacle what Dice/EA releases are like. And frankly I have no desire at all to play this game. Free or not.

  • meniac on 05/02/2015 - 04:35

    I believe that this finishes on 8 February….
    ohhhhhhhh well….give it a try…
    NOBODY ON SERVERS atm…nooooooooo

    • Shaw on 05/02/2015 - 06:51

      It's strange, one minute it shows all empty, then the next there are a couple full.. Buggy filtering I think.

  • maxell86 on 05/02/2015 - 10:34

    Tragicfield hardline. Tragically will be softline. The fastest Battlefield ever! wait ever? what about 2016/17 when the next Battlefield is out, it will surely be faster. To date the tragicfield 4 the buggest of all.
