According to a post on the EA UK Forums the EA servers underwent some maintenance this morning then had some issues coming back up. When they do a new update to the Battlefield: Bad Company 2 beta will be pushed out. No word on what the update includes. Thanks Shwan for the tip.

Battlefield: Bad Company 2 includes an auto updater (BFBC2BetaUpdater.exe) that can be found in your install directory.

Update: Additional information posted. New client will be released tomorrow.

    EA servers are coming online now, please don't swamp the connections
    You will notice a lack of game servers too, we are bringing these up gradually to avoid overloading.
    The client wasn't tested in time today so we will look to release that tomorrow.
    Sorry for the outage today, we'll try to make sure it doesnt happen again

Updated Maintenance and Client Info
    Maintenance Tuesday 16th Feb ONGOING UPDATE
    Backend maintenance is scheduled for Tuesday the 16th between 10:00-13:00 GMT and 02:00AM-05:00AM PST.
    During this time Battlefield Bad Company 2 will be unavailable.

    UPDATE: The maintenance has been restarted due to issues on restarting the service under load. The EA servers will be down for another 75 minutes. In which time we are working on a new server and client to be released for when the servers come back online.
