Battlefield PC Digital Download Games: Battlefield 3 $10, Battlefield 2: Complete Collection $5, Battlefield: Bad Company 2 $5, Battlefield 2142 Deluxe Edition $5 & More (expired)

Quote from s33kd34l : i got BF3 basic a while ago. and if i get the premium, can i sell the basic BF3 with key on ebay? thanks in advance.

depends if you've redeemed it in origin client yet.
if not, i suppose you could, altho i'm not sure if its allowed. (I dont deal with ea/origin personally)

I don't have neither BF3 Basic nor BF3 premium, so is it worth it to spend $20 more for the premium edition?

also does Origin client (with this game installed) has offline mode like Steam or I have to be online whenever I wanna play this game?

Thanks in advance...

Quote from snowcrash : BF3 must be losing players left and right and having trouble gaining new players.

Why don't you just wear a headband that says "Nothing holier than CoD" while you're at it lol.

I don't think it's a problem of losing or having trouble gaining people, I think it's a way to let people try new games they may have not played. I picked up Crysis 2 recently on a sale....just because it's old doesn't mean I won't try it. Everyone has their own opinion, but I've been a huge fan of the BF series and play some of the older ones when I have the urge.

Perfect example: Rome Total War, released in 2004. It's my favorite RTS of all time, and it still pulls new players in to this day. The release of RTW2 later this year will be an epic event people have waited years for.

I wish the DLC for battlefield 3 would go below $30 already lol

So when this is purchased on the Origin website, it's forever attached to your account? Wanted to pick up a copy for my brother as a gift.

Wish it was on steam. I like to have my games all in one place.

Can't comment on getting the premium edition as I'm pondering whether or not to get it. But BF3 has to be played online. Even to launch the game you have to use their stupid online interface. I haven't heard of or tried to do any offline playing so perhaps it would work but I doubt it.

good deal, the jerk from origin ran his mouth about steam dropping prices and he does the same, sad. I would buy this, great deal! but too bad it's not on steam! thanks for posting

So, I don't really care to play this game online. I just wanted to play the campaign. I'm new to all this pay as you go type games since I only deal with steam. Do I buy just the original game for 9.99 or do I buy the expansion packs to get the full game play?

Is the Vietnam expansion pack worth $5? I ask because sometimes I find the expansion packs for games don't really add a whole lot (and also seem a bit disjointed compared to the original release).

I think its a pretty good expansion and i paid about 10 few months ago. Definitely worth 5 bucks. I got a better value out of the expansion then i did out of bf3 for $15.

Agreed. Typical EA. I loved BF2 and played BF3 for a few months. But did not care for the perk system or the buggy nature of the Origin client.

EA really shot themselves in the foot when they left steam. Like they said on South Park, in order for society to thrive we need gods and clods. Guess which one EA Origin is...

You just need the base game. They have not made any changes to the single player game since it came out, other than bug fixes.

Premium only applies to the multiplayer.

Be warned, the single player is not long at all.

Yes, you can play the single player campaign in offline mode. You just have to switch Orgin to offline mode before lauching battlefield 3.

Quote from bobbyg27 : I miss the commander system from BF2... although I've heard a lot of people hated it. I dunno why? I was a great commander, spent the whole round on the command screen and only did UAVs, resupply/vehicle drops and artillery strikes when my squad leaders called for it. They would then (generally) follow my orders on points to hold. So sad they removed that from 3! Can't beat em join em.

You might be good, but bad commander ruin things.

I got one trying to kill me because I try tell him where to launch airstrikes, he seems doesn't want suggestions. I ended up throwing him a grenade to kill him and left the game.
