Yeah check more... Alt enter definitely works. Sure there is an option to have it toggle ADS.

I got the new nvidia BF3 beta drivers, once you're in the game you can go to options and choose full screen mode. Its Aim Down Sights.:D

Not all Bullets and Butterflies I'm afriad
I'm listing these issues as a stern word of warning to anyone before testing the game, there is some setup work to be done and even then, things might not work out the way you planned

Battlelog:
Works or Doesn't, depending on what is happening on the Origin/Battlelog servers
There was a LIVE patch applied last night that made all current servers invisible on Battlelog, effectively preventing anyone form joining them

GFX:
Drivers updates are required
TBH, and in my opinion even running at decent spec, the GFX have a "Washed" Look

Bugs:
Even after you've joined a server through Battlelog and managed to get your game running at a decent Framerate, there are issues
My personal issues -
Cannot bind keys - Stuck with Defaults, this includes not being able to bind anything to any of my mouse buttons, or change any keyboard bindings (So I have to hold down RMB to Aim Through Sights)
GFX Issues - Weapon Models AND crosshairs dissapear (Making it Impossible to Hit anything unless you are standing right next to it)
No Friendly/Enemy Designators (With no Identification of Enemy players, when shooting at pixels at range you are bound to TK)
Nades feel like Darkmatter - They travel for a short distance before plummeting to the ground
No Splash Damage from RPG's etc - Score a dead centre hit and everything is good but miss even slightly and the guy will wind up sticking that M4's barrel right up your butt
Weapon Scrolling - No Continious Scroll (Scroll to knife, then Backtrack to primary)

So yeah , be aware, there are issues, although not everyone will experience any or all of these

For me though, Its a bit like finally catching a glimpse of the girl next door naked through her bedroom window, then finding out its your sister visiting the girl next door :/

curious question:

to all those that ordered the MOH Limited Edition for the BF3 BETA, have you actually managed to get MOH listed in your games list in Origin?

Listed as installed since 26 Sept

some people say that apparently you had to have it in Origin on or before 25th.

although personally I think that is load of crap cause the game should have already been registered to our Origin accounts from when we got the game and started playing it.

I also don't have it listed in Origin so would like to see if some1 actually had it listed since before 25th who still hasn't gotten key.

some people who bought through Steam also seem to have gotten keys :@
 
Still waiting. Doing the EA support queue again (1 hour to go).
 
Yeah it was a bit of a FAIL from EA regarding the MOH keys.

Have to say the Beta is fun though and think that the Full game is going to be awesome!
 
Fail you say? How about I never got mine!

I'm not a fan of urban maps with no vehicles or rush mode, so I'm going to leave the beta until the full release.
