EA Sports UFC 2 Closed Beta Launches on January 28

Yeah I don't why it keeps telling I'm not eligible especially since I owned the game, TWICE. I typed in my origin account and everything.

So let me get this straight.....it doesn't matter that I have UFC 1 and played it to death. The real issue is that I didn't play while logged into my Origin account?

I have only used one e-mail address for Origin, Uplay, etc, and it's the one I used to sign in on EA's site and to sign up for UFC news, and to TRY to gain access to the beta.

So in other words, bcruise, you are not alone with this issue sir. I'm just as frustrated and confused as you.

Exactly, its a straight cluster **** way of handling this whole thing. Why not just go simple with it with a open beta????

I honestly dont know. Its not even just an EA thing. Theyve done some closed betas but some open ones too. I think Star Wars was an open beta. So I dont know why this was closed.

Yeah, Star Wars was open beta. It was, ah, not well received, which could have informed their decision on more tightly controlling this one. Also they wanted to stress test online for SW, which isn't as much of a concern on UFC.

It seems to me that maybe they wanted to reward people that played UFC1, but UFC is niche enough for a sports game that unless they really advertised it that'd pretty much be the audience anyway.
