Lol. EA convinced me not to get it (I wasn't planning to either way, but whatever). I just got an email titled "Battlefield 3 PC system requirements". I knew that it was another add for BF3, but based on the email title, I thought that they changed the requirements, maybe even lowered them. Could be interesting.
I click on the email and all it tells me is that "Battlefield 3 requires the latest version of Origin. Get Origin now!". Yeah... I was not amused. Since when did EA start lying in their own emails? If you title an email "system requirements", I want to see, you know, some system requirements.
Nice job breaking it, EA.

That would be a system requirement, though.

^ Last time I checked, Origin is one program, and therefore would be a system requirement, not requirements.

Oh, so specific. 
Maybe it was just a slight flaw in logic, or a typo?

Just checked the email again. Yes, it says very clearly, requirements.
But in the end, the deciding factor of why I will not get it are the graphics. Most praise them. But I see the horrible LOD. I can't stand LOD. Don't like trees that grow entire branches when you get closer to them.

I wasn't impressed with the beta. Played 3 matches and decided it wasn't even half what I thought it would be. Maybe I'm just spoiled after playing MAG, but it just didn't seem all that fun to me.
