Battlefield 3 open beta is six times larger than the previous Battlefield beta: 2010's Bad Company 2's open beta, to some this was to be expected as a majority of the Battlefield fan base have waited for a long time for the Battlefield 2 sequel. Karl Magnus Troedsson also gave us further insight into the beta  saying "The beta players are playing with early game code, which is over a month old since DICE had to submit it to validation at Microsoft and Sony. The main purpose of the beta is to stress test the game servers." Many will be hoping that many if not all of the issues that are currently cirulating the battlelog forums will be addressed before the retail version of BF3 is released. Here is a list of the top 10 issues.

The rush crysis team kept its nerve was able to come out on top in a close than expected crysis 2 final at i42. In a close fought battle against NewGen where rush only needed to win one map to go away with the prizes,NewGen fought hard on the first half coming from behind to win the half, this made the 2nd half of the map even more important for team rush as they needed to win the 2nd half by at least 30 points or another map would have to be played. Team rush came out hard and fast taking a hugh intial lead before a minor resurgence of the NewGen came about, this late push was soon dealt with and the final pod landed in the grasps of the team rush players,with that final pod captured team rush ended any hope of a newgen revival and went home with all the crysis 2 goodies.   Donning the Team Rush nanosuits were Born, Duky, gfn, Inv, Shooks, and rjayw Excellent job representing Team Rush Well done guys.
