The release today of the Battlefield Bad Company 2 PC beta client happened on schedule at noon Eastern time. However publisher Electronic Arts decided to give the beta client to a select view download sites around the world ahead of time. The result? The client has been nearly impossible to download thanks to a massive surge of traffic by gamers who want to play the beta tor the multiplayer shooter from Digital Illusions.

The Battlefield Bad Company 2 web site has a list of mirrors for the multiplayer beta but they are all experiencing heavy traffic at the moment. There's no word yet if EA will open up the mirror list to allow for more download sites.
