BF3 Question

Gundog48 · 24 Aug 2011 at 10:01

Just a quickie- If I buy the CD version of BF3 from OcUK, will I be able to just put the disk in, install the game and play it without Steam or Origin? I really hate those game 'services' and just want to play it as a standalone game, will that be possible? Also, if you do have to use Origin, will I be able to install it from the disk or will I have to go through the stupid process of downloading the game despite having the CD?

Im pretty sure retail copies will force and play through Origin, this will be solidly confirmed.

Agreed, you still need to register through Origin even for retail copies.
