Exclusive: Secrets of the Battlefield 3 Alpha Trial- no info on how to get codes, but still interesting

It doesn't look like you have to be a level 30. There are those who think it's all random.

It doesn't seem all that different from BFBC2 (so far) but then again, I haven't played much of it.
Biggest issue for me atm is trying to get used to the default key assignments since they can't be customized yet =\
