THE BUZZ: DICE announced that this weekend the Caspian Border 64 player Conquest map will be open to all PC Battlefield 3 beta testers.

The servers will be available from today, October 7th until October 10th. This is to stress test the 64 player configuration for the final weekend of beta testing.

After analyzing the data from our first round of closed Caspian Border tests, we have great news for participants in the Battlefield 3 PC Open Beta: the DICE team has decided to bring back Caspian Border for the beta’s final weekend and conduct an open large scale test of the 64 player Caspian Border map.

As we are again specifically testing 64-player server configurations, this test will be for PC only. The Caspian Border servers will be available for all PC players to join. Caspian Border will be available starting Friday, October 7th, in the afternoon (CET).

EGM’s TAKE: After allowing a few players access to the map it’s good that all PC beta testers will get a chance to test out the map.
