Doubt it has anything to do to certification, as it's already been passed: https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/974328-official-battlefield-3/page__view__findpost__p__594318404

It was due to certification, PC Beta was ready they were just waiting for console cert before they could move ahead.

The alpha url for BF3 was http://bf3alpha.battlefield.com, http://bf3beta.battlefield.com has just appeared today and it looks like Apache has only just been set up, Italian Battlefield Facebook page are teasing that some news is coming tomorrow that everyone has been waiting for, so it looks like the beta is due this week.

My guess is weekend for early access (MOH:LE and Alpha testers) and then monday onwards for open beta.

    • Microsoft, why can't I just turn off Copilot on my MS account (in order to stop OneDrive from wanting to summarize everything, ahem) in a way that doesn't break OneNote instead?
    • If we can't agree on a baseline of reality then there is no point in talking. Its a waste of time.
