EA has given us an easy-to-use tool to find out when their servers for Battlefield 3 are up and running.
The site, which you can view here, has all three systems (PC, Playstation 3 and Xbox 360) listed along with their current status. Furthermore, you can check to see if Battlelog is good to go as well. At this time, everything is coupled with a green “UP”.
This beats the traditional method of enduring several failed login attempts before coming to the conclusion that the servers must be down. It may be a simple feature, but it’s still good to see EA taking enough of an interest to keep us informed about the status of our games.
