"There will be other ways to get into the beta aside from MoH Warfighter. At this time, however, it is the only way to guarantee entry." So says Battlefield 3 community manager Ian Tornay, who took to Reddit to add some details about the recently announced Battlefield 4 beta.

He didn't say much beyond confirming there would eventually be other ways to get into the beta, and that Battlefield 4 would launch after the beta - big surprise there - but he was quick to assure the community that even though Battlefield 4 has been announced, DICE and EA will continue to support Battlefield 3 and its proposed expansions long after launch.
