I'm pretty sure as long as it's added to your library you can download it whenever you want. I added Dead Space when that was on offer but never downloaded it, I'll try it later and see what happens.

It's not actually that bad once you get used to it. It's pointless for the campaign I agree, but when you're playing multiplayer you come to appreciate it.

Another question about Origin: Since BF3 is on my Library, can I go to another computer and login on Origin and then download BF3 for that computer? Or is it one copy of a game can only be downloaded to a computer?

If it's the same as Steam you should be able to move from PC to PC, Steam lets you do that. Theoretically you're not going to leave your log in details with anbody else so only you still play your games. I'd have to confirm that though.

Thanks for the reply. Looks like the patches are included in the game. Only problem now is joining a server and every SEA server is full. Didn't know the BF3 is still this active.

I have a question with the following : if i download the Battlefield 3 on a PC with Windows XP the download will not proceed because it is not compatible with the systems, ¿ right ?
But
Although I havent downloaded anything, I think it is automatically added to the library.
I have done the test with an account and I think the game is already in the library.
