    Fyi, this is for PS3 and Xbox360 too. enter the code in your BF3 console's main menu / store.

    how are you loading it Mobius.
    opening origin. click drop down box in top left and entering the code.
    if that doesnt work try right clicking on the game in your library and press repair.
    otherwise open game and check it doesnt need an updated plugin. that could be why its not finishing to load.

    hope it works for you soon.

    A little OT here, but does BF3 always launch a Web browser when you click play now? Always played it on PS3 before so I'm used to in game menus and server browsers. Not this external crap.

    Clicked update/repair same thing ;|



    BF3 stores all weapon stats user side with a .cas file, when a balance is applied this .cas file has to be redownloaded with a newer updated version.
