I believe Battlefield Hardline is significantly better than BF4 just because it isn't military-themed—I have my own reasons for that. There are discussions about getting the game before its official release from Origin. Could I pre-order BF:Hardline and download it ahead of time so I’m ready when it launches? This applies to upcoming EA Origin titles as well. Battlefield Hardline really feels fresh. Even though they mention the graphics are a slight step down from BF4, I don’t own a copy of BF4 D yet—they’re quite pricey. My trustee vendor offered me Battlefield Hardline for about 44.99 USD (roughly converted) and that’s a great deal compared to the 69.90 USD price tag. The Digital Deluxe version is listed at 55.99 USD as well. That’s all I need to know, plus some thoughts on why I shouldn’t pre-order or why I should think twice before buying Hardline.

I learned from my mistakes—especially the last one involving Ac Unity—and I stopped ordering stuff beforehand. I won’t pay companies like Ubisoft or EA anymore for games that are poorly optimized and incomplete. They seem lazy because they made a lot of money before anyone even played, and what really frustrates me is their week-long free beta with select maps, which created excitement but also encouraged more pre-orders. It felt like a cheap tactic to boost sales. In short, it’s safe to wait until the game is released to buy it.

I’ve tried the closed beta and liked it. I was on the open beta but couldn’t join, so I played for an hour at a friend’s place when the internet was down. My vendor’s sale ends in late February too. So… it’s not my first time. How does this actually help you?

I noticed the G2A! It’s true I’d like a credit card. Using Steam vouchers and shopping at stores helps because I don’t have one. I wish I did, but I’m underage. So... fml

Honestly though if you really want it then just pre-order it, but what I meant to say is that if you look back at the worst cod games people would say in the first week that it was fun and it was really good. And after the week they would call it a piece of sh*t and go back to playing the older cod.

bankcard, no I don’t have an AMEX or USA bank card. Hah, my parents stopped using credit cards a few months back. D: I missed it when they had 50% off on BF4... In school, the only person who has legit games is me. Others have infected their laptops with bootleg games. Getting a friend to buy it for me is tough (usually the other way around)

Can I retrieve the file prior to release? It seems like no one has addressed this issue...
