Yeah, the 80 dollar early access copy is for sale at walmart. So stupid.

Gosh their launch is so confusing. Guess today was just one of the many partial launches.

The World War I shooter from Battlefield series developer DICE officially launches on October 21. However, the game's Play First Trial--which contains a limited selection of the game's single-player and multiplayer content--launched back on October 13 for EA/Origin Access subscribers.

EA Access is available on Xbox One and Origin Access is the subscription service's PC version. No version of EA Access is available on PlayStation 4. However, people who buy the $80 Early Enlister Edition of Battlefield 1 can start playing the full game tomorrow, October 18. Like the full game next week, the Early Enlister Edition unlocks at midnight. This premium version of Battlefield 1, which also comes with extra digital content, is available on PS4, Xbox One, and PC.

lol super bizarre.

I was at gamestop on Monday and they were prepping for the midnight release. Just assumed it was the final launch.

This is going to become standard isn't it?

You can always expect ea to pull some dumb shame.

ya i couldnt justify the extra 20 bucks..   but its driving me nuts lol

Or just walk into a store and buy it...

Prices are more competitive online plus the only store I can buy it from near me is Tesco who are never great on prices. The nearest gaming store to me is about a 30/40 min drive away.

I like CoD for the campaign mostly... MP is a plus and being like BO3 is good, no?

I still don't understand what I don't like in BF games... every time I tried it put me bored in few minutes.

Add the shame job done by DICE with crazy, unplayable bugs and terrible performance put me away from BF games at launch.

Last one I bought was 3 at $5... played 30 minutes... for $5 I can't complain

Battlefield is much better with a squad. Cod is for lone rangers.

ya bf is much better played with a squad.  combined with the large player count makes it an entirely different experience.  alot more planning, coordination etc.

the sniping in battlefield is also a hell of alot better.  not to mention the destruction, and vehicles/air units and map size.

I never buy DLC unless it adds good value. Stuff like Ultimate Team on Fifa is a great example of something that should never be allowed.
