Caspian Boarder open this weekend

After analyzing the data from our first round of closed Caspian Border tests, we have great news for participants in the Battlefield 3 PC Open Beta: the DICE team has decided to bring back Caspian Border for the beta’s final weekend and conduct an open large scale test of the 64 player Caspian Border map.

*****Please keep in mind that as this is beta we will be stress testing our servers***** As such, users may experience crashes, network instability and outages as we roll out and configure servers and network utilities. Understand that such potential issues and the testing environment are not reflective or indicative of the final product and that, through your participation, you will be helping to ensure future stability and functionality.

As we are again specifically testing 64-player server configurations, this test will be for PC only. The Caspian Border servers will be available for all PC players to join. Caspian Border will be available starting Friday, October 7th, in the afternoon (CET).

UPDATE: Some users may see "You were kicked by an administrator" when dropped from the game. This is not accurate (beta!) and relates to being dropped by the server. Thank you for your continued participation in our beta!

They should of done this map in the first place =/

servers are allready up..i just went and played a round just as laggy as last time though :-( i was going to hang around for a bit and play but fuck it now i'm going to this fun fly in san diego area.

I got in about 4 rounds so far. Not laggy for me really. 64 people so I expect some glitches here and there. Got to fly a bit and liked it for the most part.

My main gripe right now is the map is useless it feels like. I press M to bring up the whole map and can't see much beyond the 2-3 flags in my immediate area. Meh.

I lag my face off in every Caspian server I've been in.

Most of the Caspian servers I've been in are laggy but usually very playable.

about time! now i am just stuck here at work...

anyone else hate the choppers?

find an nfo server, I get zero lag in those.

only play in the 48 man servers, 64 are unplayable imo.

have been streaming it on http://bf3stream.com all day for those who want to check it out but cannot play.

I have yet been unable to complete a round without it crashing. The map is huge, like some of the old 42 maps.

The multiplay servers are the only ones that can handle this map i've found.

Just played it and it has a open feel but the layout keeps it good for ground or air and if u wanna run around u can do that too with all the woods and rocks. wasnt bad
