battlefield 3 beta not yet released?

I got a key for BF3 beta that randomly showed up in steam while launching medal of honor. so i tried to enter the key in steam (where it came from) says invalid CD key. So i tried to enter the cd key into origin and it showed up in my library as BF3 beta but it says its not yet released. what is going on?

Battlefield 3 has been out of Beta for a year and a half.

Game's been out for a looong time

BF3 was RELEASED in 2011.faizan_faizan

How did you even get a STEAM beta key. The game is Origin only. 

I thought this was a necro thread, than OP mentioned Steam and I saw the dates and I realized OP probably was duped/is high.

The only reason to purchase the MoH series games is to get betas for Battlefield.  True story for the last 2 Medal of Honors haha
