EA confirms Battlefield 3 not heading to Steam
We've seen titles like Crysis 2 and Dragon Age II already become casulties of the dispute, and "a restrictive terms of service" seems to have played a large role in this fallout between the two companies. Battlefield 3 will be available on nearly all other digital distribution channels, so it doesn't appear that EA is trying to funnel players into its newly revamped Origin content delivery system. What exactly these crippling terms of service are at this point is unknown.
There has been speculation that DLC could be the potential issue that is holding back an agreement between the two companies, but the only thing that is certain right now, is that Battlefield 3 will not be available on Steam this fall as confirmed by EA.

It sucks, But I guess its not that bad.
The Shift+Tab Chat function will be missed but the battle-log Menu I tried out during the Alpha is quite ambidextrous and simple.
Even though this is a loss towards the steam community, Origin Battle-log is pretty decent.
