I THINK I AM THE PINNACLE OF HUMOR. WAIT HANG ON I HAVE TO GO POUR MILK INTO MY GAPING ASSHOLE!

sitting in a stationary gun babysitting the skies is not fun. and the attack bomber is capable of flying low and fast from behind cover on a lot of locations.

If you mean the attack plane then it only takes 3-4 direct hits to kill, which should be easy with the massive blast radius :hehe:

The murmots is hilarious and was absurdly OP for a good bit after being absurdly trash when it came out. Now it’s good but the forever reload sucks. Autospotting the entire map with the camera from the twin cannon view is pretty nuts

My joke answer is just write our good friends at EA customer service I’m sure they will be glad to help!

My actual answer: Origin tells you doesn’t it? I’m not home to check but you can look at what’s on your account or go to the Shop and select BFV and see what it’ll let you purchase?

If I was in front of it, I could definitely answer. Ugh.

It's quite faint, but the artwork on my preorder in Origin has the words "Deluxe Edition" on it.

When you look at the cover art in your library in Origin, do you have a pretty lady or some guy.

If you have some guy, congrats, you bought the deluxe edition!

I'm still convinced the lady being on the normal ed. box art is a brilliant troll by EA

Gonna play off this post earlier:


Because some of you and the lurkers don’t know that this is a thing:



And you may be thinking but why does this matter? EASY! It’s because you can play BATTLEFIELD V for FREE days before it launches.



See that above where it says Battlefield V? Yeah, you want to do this free 7-day trial when the game comes out IF YOU DIDN’T BUY IT.

Come play on launch with us for your 10-hour Trial and know this is your easiest way to decide if you like the game or not.

If I've already pre-ordered the deluxe edition can I sub to the premier thing just once to unlock it early?

That's what I did and you should see an option to refund your deluxe edition preorder through origin (didn't work for me I had to call support). You could also refund your preorder and buy it again once you have origin premier to get the 10% discount.


quote:

Origin Access Premier

I already have Origin Access Premier. Does that count as a pre-order? Do I get the Enlister Offer extras or do I have pre-order Battlefield V specifically to get those?

Ryan McArthur (Producer): Yes!

If I have Origin Access Premier for 1 month, what happens to the skins I had access to? Do I get to keep the skins or am I “renting” them out?

Ryan McArthur (Producer): Once you have the items in your inventory they are yours.

Do we know if the goon discord will create some kind of cross squad communication the way some people mentioned earlier? I'd very much like to get in on that for as long as the goon player base can sustain it.

Don't get too attached to the character customization. It's going to be extremely inflated. Like that jacket? 100,000 company coins, or .99 cents worth of premium currency!

I haven't been paying attention too much to know the details but isn't there also something where you get a discount by purchasing their origin access thing enough so that it pays for origin access itself?

I do not hear you, I do not see you, I will not let you get into the Duggler's head with your bring-downs.

If you buy 2/3 EA games each year I'm pretty sure premier access works out to be the cheapest way with the most benefits

Currently it looks like the "real money" currency can only be used for cosmetics, so no worries about buying guns and whatnot (for the moment).

:nallears: That's how these markets typically work, yes. I'd rather DICE turn their profit this way than chunking out whole maps for purchase.
