With BC2, we allow the screenshots to be synced to our webhosting, making viewing them easy (well, attempting to; 95% don't show anything). The same system should be possible with BF3.

We can't yet release any further information on BF3. When we are allowed to, we will :)

Just received an email today that AoW has also been granted BF3 servers for sale by EA. They mention pre-sales at $0.99 per slot. Sorry to say, but their price also reflects their poor service and support. Looks like pre-sale prices are ranging from $0.99 - $2.00 per slot so far. Hopefully the competition will provide some reasonable prices.

Guessing with about 6 weeks to release, info should be coming very soon.

@Major Pain

And I, just today, got an email from PT and LPGS that they will be offering BF3 servers. Thanks to both of them but I think I'll go with NFO. :)

Oh, and any clue why my post count here is stuck at 2? These boards have been a bit wonky.

Might just be a small delay in updating.

It seems as though other GSPs like to send out spam.

I haven't got much spam from them.

Just think they expect it to be a big hit, and trying to jump in front of all the other companies to get as many pre-orders as they can.

I am sure, they will lose many with poor server performance.
Most games are like that. Order too quick and get what you pay for.
We did that with AA3 and BCBF2 going through many companies before
we found some that performed better.

I don't really like preorders in general, since they're not typically needed for game servers, but we offer them because customers demand that we do. I would strongly recommend to anyone who is considering preordering the game from any provider that they at least wait until the beta and test the beta servers first.
