Has anyone received an error message stating "You are not authorized to access this page." when you click on "My Soldier" on the Battlefield 1943 website even after being logged in.

I guess EA doesn't like me. Guess I'm going to stick to Mass Effect 2 and 3 being my last EA titles.

Time to get a bigger TV. It's an unfortunate trend in games these days, but the fonts are getting smaller and smaller to cater to people with huge HD setups.

I dunno, does anybody else here have a hard time reading any of the text in this game? Everything from the in-game font/text that shows the guy you killed or got killed by, anything in the help files where you can read up on how to play this game(or cannot read in my case) Even the stats screen is unreadable.. its like the same problem with the lost and damned gta 4 dlc.. the font is so tiny and "fancy" that the words seam to stick together and blur between the letters making the word/sentence unreadable... Anybody else have this problem? BTW im playing on an HD setup with 1080p via hdmi..

This was one of the games I was really looking forward to but $15 dollars for only 3 maps, the massive connectivity issues, and EA's "disclaimer" is keeping me away. Sorry, but I have a very unfriendly history with EA and the Battlefield series since they officially pulled the "30 day notice" on Battlefield: Vietnam so they could market Battlefield 2. I don't trust them to not dump BF43 since they've prominently added this disclaimer, nor do I trust them to add REASONABLY PRICED DLC. $15.00 for this with 3 maps when I can get almost ANY Battlefield title for the PC for under that (except Vietnam *grumble*) and play on dedicated servers that are run better than EA's ever were? No thanks.

Hmmmm, was an insta-buy for me now with these connection problems its a little frustrating. You may forgive a 400 game, but 1200...

Had some issues in the early going (yesterday). No problems since!! Nice game, plays well, looks good...well worth $15.00. Hope EA doesn't pull the rug out after the 30 days!

Its just really frustrating to see this happen, You should put there online standards higher by making sure there is plenty of servers at launch. There obviously wasn't enough so why have they launched unprepared? This isnt the kinda standard you would expect these days, Its an amazing game when it runs well. I hope this gets fixed soon and in future gets prevented, especially on a notoriously famous popular franchise like battlefield!!

If there was a way to hold you to your statement CatchableCLoud I would... because I bet you'll be buying an EA game soon enough, whether you like it or not.

I hope Microsoft knows this is making them look pretty foolish. If the release goes smoother on PS3, then the press should have a field day. I dont see how an Online Only game is not prepared for the release. Servers should not be why the game is unplayable. Microsoft needs to step in and force EA/Dice to step it up.

Major, what is the deal with the Marketplace issues? If you go to xbox.com/Support, the Marketplace is showing RED (may experience problems). When is that going to be fixed? Its been that way for at least 24 hours now. Lack of info is getting old.

30 minute demo - Not enough gameplay for me to buy it. Way to go EA/Dice
