TheUglyCasanova Posted September 29, 2011 Share Posted September 29, 2011 Lol I know it's a glitch, but I was SO excited to see it finally on there to download...then I click download and it costs -1MS point...which somehow equates to me needing 400 TRILLION MS points to get it. UGH FIX YOUR SHIT ALREADY M$. I NEED THIS. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
twinkie Posted September 29, 2011 Share Posted September 29, 2011 it's not available for download until 8am eastern time Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheUglyCasanova Posted September 29, 2011 Author Share Posted September 29, 2011 it's not available for download until 8am eastern time Source on that? Why put the fucking ad up if it's not available for another 6 hours? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KirbyTheAlmighty Posted September 29, 2011 Share Posted September 29, 2011 Source is because that's when the marketplace updates (actually, I think it updates between 5-6 AM Eastern Time). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nekrophetamine Posted September 29, 2011 Share Posted September 29, 2011 Lol, yeah, it's pretty crazy: http://i4.photobucket.com/albums/y116/doomed_progeny/no-bf3-for-you.gif Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KirbyTheAlmighty Posted September 29, 2011 Share Posted September 29, 2011 Also, that's 4 Billion. Not 400 Trillion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TealPavelski Posted September 29, 2011 Share Posted September 29, 2011 Lol I know it's a glitch, but I was SO excited to see it finally on there to download...then I click download and it costs -1MS point...which somehow equates to me needing 400 TRILLION MS points to get it. UGH FIX YOUR SHIT ALREADY M$. I NEED THIS. Same thing happened to me. I was surprised to see it on the Marketplace, but I noticed it was gone after I clicked on the ad. Source is because that's when the marketplace updates (actually, I think it updates between 5-6 AM Eastern Time). You are correct. The Marketplace updates around 3am Pacific, which is 6am Eastern.

iBuzz7S Posted September 29, 2011 Share Posted September 29, 2011 There is still 5 hours remaining. Of course, you can still download the beta, but it requires a lot of knowledge. Take note of what happened to the Halo: Reach beta + full game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MediumMelanin Posted September 29, 2011 Share Posted September 29, 2011 LOL someone doesn't know their math! It's 4 billion, not as much as 400 trillion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ConfederateSuga Posted September 29, 2011 Share Posted September 29, 2011 Maybe the beta was only designed for rich people, like Bill Gates. I doubt even he could afford that, though haha. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MediumMelanin Posted September 29, 2011 Share Posted September 29, 2011 Maybe the beta was only designed for rich people, like Bill Gates. I doubt even he could afford that, though haha. Oh, yeah, Bill Gates can definitely afford that, even if he didn't have the money, he would get his "ex-CEO" discount, for a total of FREE.

Mr Gates net worth is $56 Billion so hes a little off lol but like you said its not like he would pay anything anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Barrowland Posted September 29, 2011 Share Posted September 29, 2011 lol the reason it is so much is to stop people downloading it. its the same with everything they put up before it goes officially on sale or watever. no one has that many points so no one gets it. if they make a mistake its usually when somthing is put up for free for like an hour or so. this is not the first thing iv seen for over a few million plus points and it wont be the last. BETA is awesome btw. even with the bugs and shit still more fun than anything iv been playing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KirbyTheAlmighty Posted September 29, 2011 Share Posted September 29, 2011 Actually DICE are based in Sweden so it's not going by American time. Actually, the download goes up based on Microsoft, so it's based on (somewhere in America) time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

syn201 Posted September 29, 2011 Share Posted September 29, 2011 Mr Gates net worth is $56 Billion so hes a little off lol but like you said its not like he would pay anything anyway. 59 ,He must of made another 3 since you typed.only a estimated amount As well .he will have countless stocks ect that will I would think add to the value .either way it is a shit load of money ,I would be happy with 56-59 Pounds some days ..

Tatanko Posted September 29, 2011 Share Posted September 29, 2011 he will have countless stocks ect that will I would think add to the value We are talking about net worth, which is the sum of all of your assets, hard cash, etc. It is your monetary worth as a person, in every conceivable way, pulling from every aspect of potential worth. So yes, stocks add to his value, but they would likely already be reflected in those numbers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Suiken Posted September 29, 2011 Share Posted September 29, 2011 it's not available for download until 8am eastern time Haha, yeah that's there way of locking us out until launch time. lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Albel Nox Posted September 29, 2011 Share Posted September 29, 2011 My roommate laughed pretty hard at the fact that I got off work and was all like -1MSP? I get paid a point to get this? And then I clicked it and it expanded into that string, he just burst out laughing. But I crashed and woke up and it was all good. I'm enjoying a lot of the small things included in this beta more than it as a whole, it's battlefield, so it's good. But these little attentions to detail this time are making it amazing for me. : D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
