Never bought a console game off amazon. Do you download it or is it a disc? I really hate having to switch discs in and out. I tend to only by discs for older games when I can get them used.

$71.99 for me. Is it because I have EA access I guess?
Yea, 10% off for EA access members. Plus we get to play it the weekend before it comes out!

Amazon Collector's Edition...

And there's a Messenger Pigeon tube... My God if I can stuff a bomb in there and control an in-game kamikaze pigeon I will be the happiest nerd ever.

Okay... I guess I'll get it.


Seriously though, as a history nerd and BF fan, I'm stoked about the WWI setting. Hope they knock it out of the park.

And is there a way to rig up your horse with C4 for some kamikaze horse action?

Amazon is still all disc-based with their preorders.

Not sure when they'll make the switch over to digital, but I imagine not anytime soon.

That's my debate... I feel like 98% (WHOOP!) of my friends are on Xbox now.

The BFOne trailer delivers and would be great if the game matched.

Any word on DLC - I'm noting that the Deluxe package "includes 7 days early access to a map released later in 2016." but no mention on DLC. Could my dreams be realized and all future DLC will be included free? (laughing hysterically inside because this is EA, but still holding out a glimmer of hope)

if enough of us get it on pc...

I'd consider it. I can certainly pump out better graphics there.



If I got the deluxe edition on Amazon, would that come with a digital code for the early access? Or would they just deliver it 3 days earlier?

I only have one question... Can I strap C4 to anything and have it blow something else the hell up?

If the answer is yes then my hype just went to 11!

PS: you guys stop the PC (better graphics) talk. You know dang well the coolest guys are in XB1 and the PC will be riddled with glitchers, cheaters, and all sorts of unmentionables!

Well COD doesn't interest me. I'd rather put up with my dislike of iron sights for a better quality game. And I only play FPS on PC because, well, master race.

It's EA, which means the game is 95% likely to be rushed and very buggy at launch....once it's stable, hopefully it will be really fun.

Also, I've always owned BF games on PC. Console just doesnt feel right with the series. If I get it, will definitely be on PC.

Got to at least give them credit for thoroughly upstaging the COD announcement though.

I'm worried about there not being much of a variety when it comes to guns

This just sounds awful. World War One changed war but a multiplayer video game based around it doesn't look good.

The trailer revealed what looked like mostly single player gameplay (just like cod). Want to know more about multiplayer but just don't see where they could go with it.

Battlefield 2/3/4 were legit, now it looks full on trying to catch cod (I like cod for what it is and also like what battlefield is).

Yearly release set in different settings/era.

Battlefield 3/4 had years of gameplay which I loved.

Now they have two studios so they can just grank games out faster.

I'll give activision and Ea one thing... They have some talent on the video making side, each year the trailers for these games look allsome.

Ah, I get you. You're saying the development/release pattern is like COD. I thought you meant the games were getting more similar.

BF4 was released in 2013.

BF4 was released in 2013.
And? It is three years later and still has an awesome player base on all three platforms.

They attempted to jam hard line out in 2014 but ended up pushing that garbage to May 2015.

Battlefield 1 is the 2016 battlefield.

And they aren't doing yearly releases. The last true Battlefield was 3 years ago. Hardline was a spinoff project that tried to leverage the franchise name.

A buddy & I were talking about how many guns will be bolt- action versus semi and how rare full auto guns might be. Will this lead to more melee and bayonets?

Nope. It will lead to more snipers.

I may be forced to use snipers just because of my massive hatred of iron sights in all forms.
