PlayStation 3 Medal of Honor beta keys being rejected

EX: "After waiting for the Medal of Honor web site to go back up following a deluge of traffic that forced it to go down for several hours, PlayStation 3 owners are now being faced with yet another obstacle before they'll be able to play the beta for Electronic Art's upcoming first-person shooter.

The beta keys don't work."

Yeah people in the EA & GameSpot forums are crapping bricks over this.

Why can't a developer ever pull of a successful day one beta?

tehk1w15084d ago

I bet you a trillion dollars the damn servers don't even work. When has DICE ever managed to successfully launch a game without paralyzing lag? Answer: NEVER.

Not Bad Company, not Bad Company 2, not Battlefield 1943. They ALWAYS say they weren't prepared. BULL-FREAKING-CRAP.

I will find out. As soon as I saw this story I realized the site was open and went and redeemed my voucher. It works fine.

The PS3 Download is 616MB. Mine is downloading now.

YoungKiller255084d ago

i will forever love you it finally works thankyou for notifying me!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Godd thing I didn't bother pre-ordering this yesterday. The plan was to pre-order, play the beta for a week, then cancel my pre-order afterwards.

poopface15084d ago (Edited 5084d ago )

First delay it for 360, now its having problems for the people who can play it.

Thats kinda whack, since they had to preorder the game to get into the beta(right?).

Part of the problem may be that the PSN store has not been updated today yet. At least it hasnt here in the US. The other issue is everyone is trying to access EA's site at the same time and their servers cant handle the workload. Ive got my code and Im going to sit here with it and be patient because I know it will get fixed.

NecrumSlavery5084d ago

Well just remember when it goes up, we're getting unlockable beards! That makes it worth the wait.

rajman5084d ago

What a stupid method EA used for this...why not have the retailers give the customers the actual beta code? instead of a code that you must input to a website in order to obtain a beta code..WTF!

Remembering Medal Of Honor: The Forgotten Master Of WW2 Games

Ibrahim from eXputer: "The Medal of Honor franchise was once the crown jewel of FPS war games, later defeated by the tides of time and poor development."

banger8827d ago

They tried to turn it into Call of Duty and it killed it off. They should reboot it and go back to it's roots. But they'd ruin it with online-only/multiplayer style bullshit so why bother? I have very fond memories of these games, but this series can stay dead as far as I'm concerned.

FPS_D3TH26d ago

Was literally just thinking of this game the other week with the secret nut cracker mission and the shooting Bismarck dog lmao. Loved these games as a kid

PrecursorOrb26d ago (Edited 26d ago )

I wish they’d remake warfighter

Strictly for the campaign

The_Hooligan26d ago

I have fond memories of playing the Medal of Honor Breakthrough MP Demo. It had two maps and custom servers. Living on campus, I had it downloaded on one of the PC Lab servers so I could access it on any computer at the university. Joined a clan and made friends that I still keep in touch with today.

Medal of Honor 2010 was a good start for a modern reboot. The campaign was fantastic. Multiplayer wasn't great but that's DICE's fault. I'd love if they went back to that game and gave it a proper sequel.

SlothLordPootus522d ago

I actually really liked the multiplayer in MoH 2010. Battlefield gunplay on small maps. I would love to see a Rising sun remake, the opening scene would be amazing to see.

SonyStyled522d ago

I enjoyed the multiplayer of MoH 2010. It felt like battlefield 3 in a way. The multiplayer in Warfighter was also pretty good but the campaigns single player story was not appealing with the whole family cutscene thing. Gameplay was fun though. MoH to me is the PS1/2 titles and I don’t expect to see a WW2 MoH after the last Call of Duty’s

Levii_92522d ago

PS1 MOH 1999 and 2000 (Underground) and Allied Assault PC is my childhood.. it's still soo good and it holds up. Not to mention Michael Giacchino's soundtrack is one of the best video game soundtracks ever made. Even if you weren't born in early to mid 90's go listen to the main theme of Allied Assault and you will be overloaded from nostalgia.

I miss this franchise a lot.

Iceball2000522d ago

I’ve always thought that MOH and Battlefield should be separate…

Have MOH as the full fledged single player with an amazing store and whatnot. And a basic multiplayer just to have multiplayer. Sorta like how the MOH reboot was.

And then have BF as the full fledged multiplayer with all effort put into that and ditch the single player. Maybe add Commander back in.

Only in a perfect world.

HeliosHex522d ago (Edited 522d ago )

Oh man medal of honor on pc was awesome back in the day. Multi-player was fun. Joined my first clan on medal of honor. Definitely deserves a comeback. But needs to be on the same level or surpass COD. Since it came out before that ip in 1999 to avoid embarrassment.

FGHFGHFGH522d ago

The guys who did Allied assault are the one who created call of duty. They're back at EA, Vince something

MadLad522d ago

I'll be the weird guy in the room and say I actually loved Warfighter. I thought the squad mechanics made it stand out a bit and thought the shooting felt good. Put a lot of time into the multiplayer.
