team-semperfi.comBig post about all the different edition of bf abd yet they are 0 mention that you can sign up for a single month of origin all access for 5$ to save 10% on your order, resulting on saving 2 to 20$ish.

PSA: You can also sign up for a free month trial of Amazon Prime and save 20% on preorders. You have to be a Prime member when the game is released though so don't sign up >1 month out. If you're already a Prime member, you get the same 20% on preorders.
edit: Apparently you can get the discount up to 2 weeks after release too: https://www.amazon.com/b?node=13584215011

Nice find. Not sure if it applies to Canada but worth checking into.
edit : well for the canadian amazon, the 20% prime save are off recurring items like laundry detergent, diapers, etc.

To the top sir!

I'll just buy the game for $60 and get Premium closer to when the next DLC comes out which is like 5 months later.

Looks like it'll be Battlefield 1 Early Enlister Deluxe Edition for me. I don't care for all the physical extras, even though they are damn nice. It's just too expensive even if Battlefield is my all-time favorite game.
3
And you dont even get premium with that 80$. Thinking about standard edition myself as DLC wont be out for few months anyways. Also not gonna pay 20$ from few skins when the base game itself so expensive..
1
Exactly. I figured with the BF4 launch, I'll pay for Premium when the time will be right.
1
Has premium pass ever been worth it?
2
to me and many other people...yes...but no need to buy it this early on ...its like 5 months before the first dlc dops
18
Well, you also get server queue priority, which can be a huge boon during the first few months when the queues are so long. Just a small benefit, probably not worth $50 alone, though, haha.
2
Wait, you get server que priority if you buy premium?
1
Yes.
1
Yes. I just read this again for BF1 yesterday, but now I can't find the post. Where is that long-form of what premium includes? Not the short 3 paragraphs on Origin....it's in that long description.
1
Right probably will get 2xp and a premium battlepack each month too like bf4
1
Yeah, that sounds right.
1
Premium pass was certainly worth it for BF4
2
can somebody please tell me what is this "early free map drop" that comes as a preorder bonus?
2
There is a free map that will be released in December. Preordering will get you early access to that map.
2
thank you kindly.
1
standard edition now $48 W/Amazon prime and premium 2 weeks before first map drop $49 total $97 seems the way to go for me
2
Ultimate edition isn't listed on Amazon as of yet. Launch is 2 months away.
1
No need to buy deluxe, ultimate or collector edition for useless skins. Just buy the standard edition for 40€ on online official key seller like Instant Gaming for example and not G2A who sell pirate stolen keys. And wait in March 2017 for the first DLC and get a season pass if you want it too.
2
Want to save money but still want to play BF One from day one (retail launch) and want Premium after that?
Buy standard physical copy in store for probably below the 60 euros, purchase premium just before first DLC hits.
Premium is 50 euros.
Interest rates with time saved on savings account aside, you keep more money in your pocket than any of the editions on origin store.
You do the math!
1
I think that really depends on how well your local stores do on discount ;) I more than often see discounts of a few cents lol. But then again, I rather have pre-loading to get all the stupid downloading done. As said before, the discs will be empty.
2
What do you guys think about early enlister? I was thinking of getting standard edition, but I might get early enlister. Should I go for it?
1
It's a rip off, 3 days worth $20? Hell no
2
Play 3 days earlier than others is fking ridiculous how is this acceptable ?
1
Well, EA/Origin access has 5 day early, 10 hour trials.
1
Is the weapon in the Arabia pack just a skin, or really an exclusive weapon no one else will get?
1
I was going to do early enlister but eh... $20 for 3 days early access? 3 days I'll be at work anyway?? Pass. Base game, premium before March. Can't decide on disc version or direct digital download... I wish there were more incentives for Battlefield veterans. I've had the same account and screen name since bad company 2...unique dogtag or uniform item or something to make the newbs bow down and lick our boot.

It isn't listed for PS4 anywhere. In fact I'm curious where this guy got his info. It's not even on Battlefield's official site. Not is it on the PS store.
1
Don't forget that with prime games are 20% off up to 2 weeks after release and for preorders
1
holy price gouge. the more i learn about BF1 the more I dont want to own.

last I played was BF3 and pretty sure i got some kinda. bundle where i didn't need to get all the new maps one by one for 60 dollars. Skipped BF4 cause EA is gross and BF4 wasn't new enough to support them.
SO bf1 being 110dollars is striking to me and a price gouge. I should get all the maps for 60 dollars. This is EA.SILY one of the more expensive games in the market.

You missed out big time by skipping out on BF4
1
i got in for 5 dollars after BF1 convinced me to DL origin. Is there a server filter for only vanilla? Haven't tried commander yet but I have fonder memories of BF3 still. Helos and planes feel way easier, I like that they seem to start you out with the "better" weapons. its fun but not 110 dollars fun.
compared to all the cheaper games i've been getting countless hours of fun on its hard to take these price point seriously.

Bf4 ended up around 30 maps. Without premium, there simply would have been less maps. And all the other content they released. The dlc wasnt just withheld from release, they had a whole team working long after the game came out.
1
i did end up getting the 5$ vanilla BF4. I only see 13 in my server browser filter The rest are premium DLC expansion something or other for 15 dollars a pop.

€209.99 and no Premium, but you do get a nice deck of cards...
was pre ordered and just canceled. Cant support this pricing structure.
