new battlefield (battlefield hardline) beta

Post by helloitsme »

Hello, I managed to get a "pass" for the closed beta of the new battlefield (battlefield hardline).

I have a mac.

Battlefield is for windows (or console). I also hoped the beta launch of the new battlefield with wine (to launch a windows application on mac application)

I was very happy at first, only "origin" is required to play this beta.

I see in my battlefield library "origin" but it is grayed out and when I put my mouse over it, I see "I only available for windows." Unable to download only.
If I could find the file. "Exe" if I knew where he was, I could run battlefield hardline, but I do not know.

What to do?

Thank you for your help. :wink:

You'd need to try to get Origin for Windows running inside of Wine, so Origin would think it was on a Windows machine and download and try to run the game.

You'd have to install Linux. It's not available for Mac OSX.
