How long did it take for the pre-load to start?

I'm in Seattle and thought I'd play some games on Origin in my hotel room, but I heard BF4 might pre-load but it's not yet

I tried seattle too and it doesn't show as preloading either.

Maybe their activating in batches?
EDIT - have a feeling its something to do with BF4 deluxe, as tried the gf's account and her's doesnt give an option to preload either.

BC2 is still better than BF3 and it will be better than BF4, the destruction in BF4 is crap compared to BC2. I wont be buying BF4, i wont miss any sleep over it either until DICE get there act together which i feel may not ever happen with regard to BF franchise.

Utter male cows dung

BF3 > BF2 > BC2

did you pick the digital deluxe base game, as that sounds like the price my mate went with?

Damn you, was discussing the other day with my relatives in Canada about a potential move out there for a year.

BaDBoY_uK · 26 Oct 2013 at 19:06

Lol DG - do you have any friends in RL? You are such a tool?

Where are we connecting on FLYVPN then guys?

BaDBoY_uK · 26 Oct 2013 at 19:15

Double post: Mine is not letting me pre-load. Must be my awesome sniper skillz bruv

Winnter · 26 Oct 2013 at 19:17

it might be less then 2week till i get the 7990.

Yup happening for a few of us.

Could be that people who brought it via vpn (ie. Mexico) its allowing and people who brought via UK it isnt? no rush at the moment tho

Gerard · 26 Oct 2013 at 19:19

Done and dusted, now to see how it works on Monday, for some reason I doubt you'll be able to use the vpn to launch it then disconnect from it to play the game. SP maybe but doubtful for multi.

terminator2k2 · 26 Oct 2013 at 19:21

just to add, you are actualy starting up origin once the vpn has kicked in? make sure you exit origin by right clicking and exit on the icon in bottom right of the screen.......

matty114 · 26 Oct 2013 at 19:31

CactusVPN free trial was the only thing what let the download continue when i turned off the vpn. I would recommend that, downloading at 10mb/s now :cool:

I'd play it now man, you'll then appreciate the improvements ya new upgrade brings

Suarez7 · 26 Oct 2013 at 19:34

Pre-loaded, bring on the 29th!

Vulcan · 26 Oct 2013 at 19:40

For those that need help using FlyVPN: http://imgur.com/a/At6E7#0

But essentially:

Close Origin
Start up FlyVPN and connect to Korea
Start up Origin
Right click on BF4 and pre-load
As soon as it starts preparing the pre-load, you can disconnect from the VPN.

Yup, shows prices in $ and showed text in korean when I tried the Korean one.

Josh · 26 Oct 2013 at 19:44

All the servers in Korea seems to be paid memebr restricted. Is it worth giving the USA a try?

As I'm in a hotel in LA...

Cancel that I was on vpnu not vpnc, on there now! chubby sausage fingers crossed!

Why do EA have an obsession with ripping off the entire European continent?

Anyway regarding the Mexican trick... Do you stay connected all throughout checkout? Or disconnect once you have added the tortillas to your cart?
