Buy the deluxe edition from origin its either £50 or 55 prem is included so it works out cheaper than buying individually.

Also get some added extras like weapons and maps plus an invite to the beta.

Thanks mcleaish

Cybercrow, on origin, the digital deluxe doesnt give you access to premium goodies,
It only gives acces to the beta, the china rising pack (which every pre order gets), and just a few little other things :/

That is not true as far as I am aware.

Okay... So heres the thing, ive pre ordered the pc version on amazon for 34 quid.
And then if i preorder the premium on that website (battlefield.com), what do i get? A code? A coupon? An email? *confusedddd*

mcleish · 21 Aug 2013 at 21:28

GMG have the pc version for £29.99, and that comes with the china rising pack. Apparently they deliver on the day of release too.
As far as we know, the Deluxe version does not come with the premium package... Only the Premium package comes with the premium package - funnily enough.
I bet the Premium pack will be a code that you enter into Origin.

Having a look on the origin website, it looks like premium is seperate. Personally im going to wait until the premium edition (game + premium) comes out early next year for £35 like it did with bf 3. Plus the enevitable bugs will of (hopefully) been ironed out.

Coxy-Clocker123 · 21 Aug 2013 at 21:37

I was also tempted to wait for the game + premium bundle but these trailers have just hooked me ;D

I think i wont bother with 'pre ordering' the premium pass, ill just wait till the release

Yeah the Premium membership gives you like a 'season pass' so you have basically prepaid for the future DLC's, eg, the 5 expansion packs it mentions etc

It seems the complete BF4 package turns out to be damn expensive:

£54.99 for Deluxe Edition from Origin
£39.99 for the Premium Membership

£94.98 Total :eek:

(£84.98 for the standard ed + premium)

best thing is a lot of places like gmg or other places will have deals on this and compete with each other plus someone will find some loop hole to get this cheap.

no point in preodering really just wait and save yourself money

Just wait till release tbh, there will be some deals somewhere. Or if you don't mind waiting till October there'll be plenty of codes when BF4 is bundled with AMD cards.

Does BF4 have client-side hit reg?

Yes although toted as being much improved; I couldn't really tell in the alpha as it was a bit messy all over, but guess we only have to wait until Oct.1st now to find out.

Why would you buy the deluxe edition if you are buying premium?

MoRT489 · 22 Aug 2013 at 08:28

Only benefit to the deluxe seems to be Beta access and 3 (instead of 1) kit addons.

On the Russian Origin store:

Standard: £23 (RUB 1,199)
Digital Deluxe: £29 (RUB 1,499)
Premium: £29 (RUB 1,499)

It looks as though from game play this still has that god awful blue tint and overly bright sun -.-

Diplexbullet19 · 22 Aug 2013 at 08:35

hmm my origin has a bf4 beta but I cant download and I cant find any info about it.

borley · 22 Aug 2013 at 09:27

Beta or more likely demo as it will be to late to change anything, will be early October they said on Gamecon.

That's because the beta isn't out yet and a date hasn't been given for when it will.

Be patient young padawan.

MarkeR · 22 Aug 2013 at 09:47

Right, what do I need to buy to get all DLCs and obviously standard game?

Standard + Premium?

Cheers
