Okay my friends. What's currently the cheapeast and reliabelest (wtf) place to buy the game and premium?


i havn't played in ages, but read some threads about ppls bf3 installs reverting to original purchase languages in origin and having to fuck around to fix it?

someone correct me if i'm wrong but i think you can get away with a mexican/russian cd key (from any of the popular key sites), then getting a premium key locally for full price. that way the install will stay in your local language on origin?

Open beta Oct 1st, woo!

So that would mean that the exclusive BETA starts 27th this month?

From what I understood the pre-loading starts on the 27th, our beta on October 1st and then the first 3 days are exclusive to premium members and pre-order holders. But take it with a grain of salt. Razz

I already learned my lesson with BF3 and my take on the beta is that I forget about it until the day it goes live, that is: when it's ready. If you watched the Mirror's Edge E3 teaser you know that's how DICE rolls Razz

That's a normal price for games these days though isn't it? 50€?

Over here it's 60€ for the standard edition. Cause we're mightier than Polandball!

This game including Premium should cost not more than 40-50€ imo. Lets check out the beta first though, it'll probably be BF3.1


PC: Yes. Console: No.

Well.... I won't buy game throught Origin anyways, becouse these MORONS at EA, don't allow to change game language through Origin.
I have 60mbits download connection so I put BF3 to download, 40 minutes later I run game and DANG! Polish language. I am Polish, but still... I prefer to play games in english language. So I go to EA Live Chat and they confirm...
I have to spend 1h+ on install from DVD to get english language...
Steam is light years ahead. Anyways... I will be getting box then, just to pick language.

Is the russian key region locked?

I think i read somewhere, that the persons russian key for BF3 got converted to a "normal" version after activating on Origin.

Becaues on Plati main game costs only around $30

What about Premium? Where do you plan on getting it from? I only see pre-orders for base game on Allegro (for example).

Both the whole Premium pack and the expansions separately were always full price, even in Russia (50€ or so), I am guessing due to there not being a retail component. If there was a difference between regions, it was usually rather small. I am not sure how it is right now.

One option is buy through GMG, they have a 20% coupon active right now that works with it. I bought Premium for 37€

[Edit2 : Disregard that, still active Very Happy]

Well you can still get BF4 for 30€ from the mexican store, if I am not mistaken. Which is 50% cheaper compared to what we pay here Smile

The way I see it, every life is a pile of good things and bad things. The good things don’t always soften the bad things, but vice versa, the bad things don’t always spoil the good things and make them unimportant.

Yay, just bought main game from mexican store without problems
Shows up in Origin as preordered and got confirmation email too


But will wait with the Premium purchase for a sale after BF4 got released. As you don't get any benefits besides the upcoming DLCs or?

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE -> SOFTWARE -> Wow6432Node -> EA Games -> Battlefield 3 » "Locale: cs_CZ (in my case)" change it to en_US and voila your game is in english Very Happy

I have BF3 box from Ultima.pl and bought premium key over allegro. Everything works fine and in english. So i think premium is checking main install.

And here we go again.



They've removed Pre-Order Bonus material from BF4 !!

I've noticed this a little while ago so I thought I'd check it out now I have some time. Now I've pre-ordered BF4 via Origin a couple of weeks ago and it clearly stated that I would be receiving for the Standard Edition Digital Download BF4, China Rising, Vehicle Shortcut and one Battlepack. Now the Vehicle Shortcut and Battlepack are not displayed on the pre-order page:

https://www.origin.com/en-gb/store/buy/76889/pc-download/bundle/digital-deluxe-edition

Rage is where I'm about now. EA Live Chat is gonna get a fucking tomorrow when their open ! (Okay I don't give two shits about the extra stuff apart from the China Rising DLC but to just take that away after I've pre-ordered it is nothing short of wrong)

It only affects preorders from sites other than Origin.
Also why would anyone core for that shit Verhicle Shortcuts for BF3?! I mean, probably everyone already unlocked the upgrades till now. And even if not, who cares when BF4 is there in some weeks O_O

Also you bought back then via Origin, so wtf is the reason in life with you man. You get everything there

That is on the Origin site... I'm not arsed about what's missing if I'm truthful, I'm just pissed they have taken it away without saying a damn thing. It's like buying a new car only to find out you're two things short than what the brochure original said you'd get. Bad example but you know what I mean...

Maybe its for the other people who pre order it. I preordered the standard edition a while ago. I still have my china xpack shit, access to the beta and got the bf3 vehicules shortcut. If you bought it before they removed these extra, i'm pretty sure you still have them.

I seriously doubt they will remove bonuses from your account if you ordered the game when they were still listed. This is more likely to apply to new orders only.

I wonder does the beta include ultra settings (real ultra), BF3 beta did not have maximum eye candy available if i remember correctly.
