    Bugger all games on Origin

    • WillRay92 on 09/12/2016 - 19:43

      Wait, you mean a title that says "Origin", a link to Origin and a mention of Battlefield 1 means it's through Origin?

      Well I for one, am shocked.

      • Agret on 10/12/2016 - 18:08

        I think he meant "bugger all" as in "hardly any" games you can buy on Origin

        • WillRay92 on 10/12/2016 - 18:28

          Probably, but I'm just getting sick of people whining about Origin. It's a decent service and was a hell of a lot better than Steam on launch. It's improving all the time.

        • Agret on 11/12/2016 - 00:02
          +1

          @WillRay92: yeah it's better than steam in a lot of ways. I'd say the new UI is a major step backwards though, it's all web based now and the layout is just confusing to me. The old layout was mostly application based and focused more on your library. Seemed a lot faster and easier to use to me. The download speeds are always faster on Origin than Steam though.

        • WillRay92 on 11/12/2016 - 13:42

          @Agret: I reckon give it some time. I hated when Steam changed over UI's too but that was proven to be a much better choice.

          And yeah, much faster downloads.

        • bxpressiv on 11/12/2016 - 15:49

          @WillRay92:

          Friends list appears over the content unless you're at full screen is super annoying.

        • WillRay92 on 11/12/2016 - 17:05

          @bxpressiv: I'm not a UI designer, if you dislike something about Origin's design then maybe contact the folks over there.

        • Agret on 12/12/2016 - 00:42

          @WillRay92: the friends list and conversations are clunky that every time you restart Origin you must click to pop them out. the my library not being the default page when the app opens is annoying, it now defaults to the store and "my library" doesn't even appear until the store page fully loads. clicking 'my library' when the app first opens has a huge wait time before your games actually come up and you can launch them compared to the old UI which was instant.

        • ProspectiveDarkness on 12/12/2016 - 20:10

          @Agret: Origin > Application Settings > Default Screen > Game Library.

          Still a bit of a delay, but better than the store appearing first.

        Origin it self is alright, but when it comes to game selection….it's trash

  • ChillBro on 09/12/2016 - 17:16

    Guessing it doesn't stack with ea access?

    • ProspectiveDarkness on 09/12/2016 - 21:06

      It does

      • Agret on 11/12/2016 - 00:04

        Damn, I bought it with EA access as I thought no way it'd go on sale until a few DLC were out. Sucks because no content has even come out for it yet but here we are with a discount.

    • Schikitar on 10/12/2016 - 09:53

      Sure does - $37.79

  • bxpressiv on 09/12/2016 - 17:41

    If it were me I'd put BF1 premium pass ~$42 in the title.

    • bxpressiv on 09/12/2016 - 17:48

      Nice. By the rules someone can post anything which isn't in the title and I think that's probably worth highlighting for people who only read the headlines.

  • pm88 on 09/12/2016 - 17:58

    Hey can anyone tell me if the player base will likely move to the expansion when it comes out?
    If there aren't enough players who will make the switch I'm not sure it's worth it, this is the first BF I have played on pc. Maybe someone who has played previous versions can help me here. cheers

    • TheRaven75 on 09/12/2016 - 18:00

      The expansion isnt really a seperate game. It just adds new maps and weapons to the original game. If you dont have the addon you wont have access to the servers that play those maps.

      • pm88 on 09/12/2016 - 18:15
        +1

        Yes I understand this, as I paid for one expansion pack for COD bo3 and there was a serious lack of people who transferred to the new maps which meant I stayed on the original version anyway. I want to avoid this happening again before paying for dlc

        • bxpressiv on 09/12/2016 - 18:44
          +1

          I think there will be a reasonably high percentage that will play the new material because as I understand it it's not due until March. Free content is coming 20 Dec. So I guess it's relatively old by the paid content time and the player base will be smaller but of those remaining they're probably more willing to pay for newer content.

          That's my hypothesis anyway.

        • sween64 on 10/12/2016 - 08:03

          From my experience with BF4 you need the DLC to enjoy a decent player base. I've been playing playing BF1 for a few weeks and am starting to get a little bored of the current maps.

      Yes. $39.83 SG at Singapore store = $37.37 AU. It could be cheaper at the Korean store by a dollar or two but I don't have access to a Korean server via VPN at the moment.

    anyone got any problem with BF1 high ping these days? I have just got back from EU trip for 3 weeks. Really wanna play BF1 so bad. But when I played it, my ping was 130-200. Usually 1-30 in Aus servers. my FIFA is just fine. just BF1 and BF4. :/

    wanna buy the BF1 but if its still like this, then no point to buy the premium pass. :/

      Thank you for this post, I was trying to do this the other day but I didn't know the method.

      BF1 standard was around $40 SGD, now it's $70 SGD and goes for roughly $48 SGD using the code. I shall just wait :)

      PayPal should work fine through a VPN, your credentials will be safe over HTTPS as PayPal use a good cert and use hsts

  • blue2609 on 11/12/2016 - 00:15

    OP, you might want to add sims 4 city living expansion pack to the deal. I found out that if you VPN'ed (I used tunnelbear) to brazil, the price of the expansion is 79.90 Brazillian real - (0.3 x 79.90 Brazillian real) = 55.93 brazillian real, which is equivalent to around ~ AU $22.22 according to google. That's significantly cheaper than other places or cd keys site.

    cheers mate,

    • sween64 on 11/12/2016 - 08:53

      Did you compare to Singapore or Korea?

      • blue2609 on 11/12/2016 - 08:53

        yes sir, here's the price for the regions that I've checked so far:

        • Singapore (about $AU 32.78 )
        • Canada (about $AU 28.52)
        • Korea (about $AU 30.83)
        • India (about $AU 34.8)
        • Brazil (about $AU 22.22)
        • Hong Kong (about $AU 29)

        all conversions are done using google

        • sween64 on 11/12/2016 - 08:57

          Nice work! Does Brazil use PayPal?

        • sween64 on 11/12/2016 - 09:00

          Wow such variation across games for which region is cheapest. BF1 Premium is ~$55.61 AU at the Brazil store compared to ~$37.37 AU at the Singapore store.

          @sween64:

          about the paypaly thing in brazil, I'm checking it right now haha, give me a minute.

          And yeah, lots of variations in prices, which is why I had to open up notepad and list the prices of Battlefield 1 premium pass before buying it:

          ALL OF THE PRICES BELOW ARE AFTER 30% DISCOUNT

          Battlefield 1 premium pass:

          • Mexico= $AU 46.99
          • Singapore (about $AU 37.38)
          • Canada (about $AU 46.34)
          • Korea (about $AU 37)
          • India (about $AU 41.7)

          I also checked mass effect andromeda in some regions(it has no region lock, so it's fine):

          • India (about $AU 55.7) — deluxe edition
          • canada (about $AU 64.17) — deluxe edition
          • Singapore (about $AU 59.06) — deluxe edition
        • blue2609 on 11/12/2016 - 09:10

          @sween64:

          okay so, about the sims 4 city living expansion from brazil. Your question was "Does Brazil use PayPal?". Yes it does, I confirmed it just now, I don't know if it really works or not however:

          Online wallet option includes paypal checkout:
          http://imgur.com/OrIEbVd

          Final checkout dialogue:

          continue to payment provider dialogue box popped up:
          http://imgur.com/O59epYG

          Chooose paypal in the final checkout page:
          http://imgur.com/ERv5RXF

          Now I'm not planning to buy the expansion though, so I don't know if it really works or not.

          Cheers mate,

        • sween64 on 11/12/2016 - 11:14

          @blue2609: How can you tell if a game is region locked? Is it on the Origin page?

        • blue2609 on 11/12/2016 - 12:09

          @sween64:

          yes mate, for example this is watch dogs 2 (scroll down the image to see the red rectangle that I drew, it's the disclaimer for region lock). Bloody ubisoft always has region lock on their games to prevent people using VPN method:

          http://imgur.com/a/Sv7Vt

          Mass Effect Andromeda/Battlefield/The sims don't have this disclaimer on their origin page. I dont know if it'll change later on for Mass Effect though, it's not even released yet.

        • sween64 on 11/12/2016 - 12:36

          @blue2609: Thanks. You're a good man!
