I don't know if anyone posted this, but if you go to the store page for Battlefield on Steam, at the bottom you can request access to the beta, I got granted access immediately and I'm downloading it now lol Let me know if it works for you too!

Won't work. You'll download it, but it'll act as a pre-load. When you try to launch it it'll launch with Origin and tell you that you need to wait or pre-order.

Yeah. Figured this was the case.

If you actually wanna play now, you could always pre-order the game on Steam, play the beta, and refund/cancel the preorder. I believe Steam charges once you order though, so it's not like Amazon where you only pay once they've shipped it to you.

Can also just pre-order it on Amazon cause they don't charge 'til it ships, should send over a beta key real quick. Is for Origin tho.

Wouldn't even rely on this method as many are still waiting to receive their early access codes from Amazon. Looks like waiting till Friday is the best thing to do at the moment.
