My closest take on it would be that they are trying to move away from their WW2 past by doing exactly what the Nazi party would have done and censoring the shit out of everything (violence, symbols, etc.) The irony. Am I wrong on this?

It's mainly to protect minors, of course some people took it too far in the past. Cut and special versions etc are really not a big thing anymore (maybe on console, but I don't follow that). And a big LOL to that Nazi bullshit. Maybe follow some speeches of our Bundespräsident (Joachim Gauck), there's not a single speech where he doesn't mention our evil past.

Germany doesn't have an evil past but Belgium does?
Be a bit more real will you, most countries if not all have an evil past. Most of us Belgians do recognize that vile history of ours, we don't let it keep us hostage like the US does though.

Not trying to start a political debate here, there is a difference between all out war (world War) and pure invasion/extermination (Congo, Japanese, Vietnamese or native americans), very few countries have VILE history (being part of a war is not vile) but let's just agree to disagree and leave it at that.

Ah, yes! There was no extermination going on during that World War. How silly of me!

And that's with the good old "I am from India, pls sell me this cheaper!" trick? or something else?
Ahh, okey...thanks.

@Mr.Tinkles Origin raised the prices in every country a good bunch of games ago. Mostly because of FIFA I guess. You probably will have to overpay in India and else, or it's 1 buck cheaper than the keystore, not worth the effort.

IF you want to buy Civilization 6, take a look at Greenmangaming. By default GMG has a 23% discount on BF1 (bringing it down to about 45$, instead of the 41$ on grey key sites) but buying Civ6 gives you an additional discount (or it did very recently) on a few games bringing that BF1 discount to 38% off. Meaning 37$ instead of 41$ on grey sites.
I also know that Civ6 temporarily had a 20% discount at the same time as those deals, dunno if its still up.

Wow, the mountain area in the Iron Walls Operation looks amazing. After playing 8 hours multiplayer (mostly operations) i gotta say that they managed to create an amazing atmosphere and kickass soundscape. The game runs smooth as butter and 64 player games are epic as fuck.
The weapons are something you need to get used to and sadly you dont have as much stuff to unlock as in BF4 (i'm a sucker for unlocking stuffz). Not sure how this will fare in the long run (i sure hope not the way of Battlefront) but you will get your 40bucks worth of fun out of it for sure.

I've to say tho, so far, the only major thing that kind of bothers me with Battlefield 1 is ...
Spoiler: |
Them calling it Battlefield "1"
|
Oh and also I noticed some "killed behind a wall" net code kinda issues. But maybe that's just my connection.

A question for all you guys who bought the standard BF1 edition on cdkeys - when will the keys be sent? I see an information on the product page written in red that it will be delivered a day before the official release date. That would mean tomorrow (20th). However, in the email i received after the purchase it says the key will be delivered on release date.
So which one is it? Anyone knows?

I'd say they'll send keys during 21st... I doubt you'll be able to play as soon as Origin standard (late-access) edition comes out on 21st midnight.

So even if there is preload for non-origin users it doesn't matter as i will receive the key about the time of the release date.
Ok, thanks.

Unless you have Origin Access. When I get my key from CDKeys I don't have to pre load because I already did that with the trial.

Is there EA Access for PC users? When I hit the button to get EA Access they redirect me to a page to get MS Live Gold Membership. What's up with that? :-/ I'd pay the 4 EUR for EA Access to download and play those 10 hrs ... |
That would be Origin Access.

This is a stupid game in ww1 wars were fought along frontal lines and trenches, and if you turned back you were shot by your own troops, there was only canon fodder and no real individual fighting. It was all limited by the number of bullets that could be produced and who had more man power to throw at the grinder.
"Zapp Brannigans heroic victory over the Killbots in the Auctlian system: He was able to win the battle when he realized each Killbot had a preset kill limit. Zapp sent wave after wave of his own men until all of the Killbots had reached their limits and shut down."
A.F.A.

Yep, you can play ten hours which is quite a lot imo. I still have 5 hours left. Don't think I can play that much before release.
