Is there still no keys for this other than via EA / Steam?

I really don’t want to pay 60 quid :(

Yeah i was looking around too and for some strange reason there no keys going about at all other than directly via steam or EA.

They are not stupid they know they are on to a winner here and want to extract as much money as they can from it. Less grey-market keys means more people paying full market price.

There is no early access to my knowledge, might as well wait for full release. I suppose the main benefit these days would be preload.
 
I picked up one of the Intel keys from eBay for 40 quid, seems decent enough value if you have one of the eligible CPU/GPU's.
 
That sort of thing shouldnt be done, its like saying this Darts players darts arent as good as Luke Littlers so he gets to stand 1 ft closer to the dart board than Littler in order to make it more fair.

Or this tennis player uses a wooden racquet instead of a modern one, so they get to be allowed to have the ball bounce twice before they have to hit it.

Dont give someone a boost because of their own choice of control method.
 
"We don't want to, obviously, tear down or destroy any of the legacy that Battlefield has, which is, first, a PC game," said senior console combat designer Matthew Nickerson, who revealed in the interview that he coined the "secretly console first" saying at Ripple Effect. "But we really have to care about console at the end of the day."

Battlefield 6 technical director Christian Buhl offered a similar take.

"Obviously, we're still also thinking about PC players, but in the past, frankly, Battlefield was built as a PC game and then ported to console, and it probably felt like that," Buhl told IGN. "That is not how this game was built. We built this from the beginning with the idea in mind that this is going to be on both console and PC. It has to feel and play like it is a console game that was built to be a console game."


Definately explains a lot, Netflix UI for one

Similar thing occurred with battlefield 3, they claimed pc was the lead platform then they switched to console, then they amended their statement saying they switched back to pc as lead platform.
