Dear Battlefield 3 players, We will be performing maintenance on Battlefield 3 starting 08/09/2015 at 08.00 UTC / 1.00 AM PT. With this update we will be countering Google Chrome’s support drop of NPAPI based plugins. Learn more about NPAPI and Chrome here. There is no expected downtime with this update. Here is the change list for this update:

Removed requirement for Google Chrome plug-in support as Origin now provides that functionality.

You will be able to download and update your Battlefield 3 client now, but this feature will be activated in September 2015 when Google Chrome drops NPAPI plug-in support. Thank you!
