Here are the times, or rather, the “launch window” for the Battlefield 3 open beta (which are nearly the same as the times for the 48 early access beta):
- US Pacific time: 6 AM – 8 AM
- US Eastern time: 9 AM – 11 AM
- Europe: 3 PM – 5 PM
- Australia (AEST): 11 PM – 13 PM
- Japan: 10 PM -12 PM JST
No word on if this is PC Times, 360 Times, or PS3 times. I'd assume all, except PC, I think that they can get theirs now through Origin. So I'd assume this is for the 360 and ps3.
If the Beta is out for you, PLEASE post what region you are in AND your console. I'll be updating this.

Right I got that the UK PS3 is covered. I need to know about the rest of EU. Scotland, Ireland, Finland, Germany, etc.
Scotland and Northern Ireland are part of the UK so the same applies
99% sure Republic of Ireland is the same as the UK store in terms of release time, I normally play with family and from memory we have downloaded maps at the same times

Ahh learned something new. I thought they were all different. I'm marking ALL of EU as having it across all consoles then. Thank you.

I'm in the US on my ps3. I managed to find the beta by searching for it, but when I click it, it says "This content can not be accessed on this account."
