Just found possibly the best deal on BF4 I've seen, already cancelled the ?44.99 origin pre-order to go to Amazon at ?30.99 before today, mate just found this, BF4 + Full Premium, not just the china rising you get with the other pre orders for ?54.99! so now I've cancelled Amazon and gone for this.

Would love to see something priced like this in USD.

I don't see anything about if it's a Russian key or not, so I'd e-mail them first to verify that it's not. Because if it's a Russian cd-key, the game isn't multilanguage like with other regions.

BF Keys aren't locked like that...at least BF3 wasn't, you put the key into origin, then its asks which you want, UK, French, German, Russian etc...

So it shouldn't matter.

They actually are locked exactly like that. Ordered a Russian cd-key for cheap for a friend back in the day of BF3 release and to play the game in English, he had to download the English files separately from the Internet.

Well my BF3 install gave me the option...so I dono...

Either way the FAQ says games should be in most languages.

Then it wasn't a Russian cd-key. I'm just telling you to check that the site you linked doesn't sell Russian cd-keys.

There's also a cheaper option out there: https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/1143924-battlefield-4/?view=findpost&p=595915593

That one is just China Rising, check the product description. not Full Premium.

From the product description: "Own more, be more with a Battlefield 4 Premium membership.

Get into the battle faster with priority position in server queues and participate in Premium events. Dominate in style by personalizing your Battlefield 4 experience with exclusive camos, paints, emblems, dog tags and more."

 

The premium gives you all the expansions.

and then underneath it just says: doesn't list any other expansion

China Rising Expansion Pack.

Fight for dominance across the vast and majestic Chinese mainland in four massive maps, using all-new vehicles and high-tech military equipment in the premium expansion pack, China Rising?

Also says in the title "free DLC when you pre-order", well the pre-order offer is just China Rising, that's given by EA any pre-order has china rising.

Feel free to contact Zavvi, but I'm 99.9% sure that does not have the full premium code. unlike the link I gave which is BF4 and Full Premium.

and then underneath it just says: doesn't list any other expansion

Feel free to contact Zavvi, but I'm 99.9% sure that does not have the full premium code.

Some people from overclockers.co.uk forums did contact them and they confirmed that the premium that mentioned in product description is included.

 

I myself didn't order from them (had an "uncle" to order the game with the premium for me in Mexico), but to verify I also contacted them (zavvi) now. Just because psionicinversion ordered from them because of me.

I'm surprised i'm saying this, but i am really bored of the beta.

 

The guns they let you unlock really suck, and the Snipers seem way too over powered.

 

I'm not worried about the game, i'm sure alot of this will change by the time the game is released, or a patch soon after.

 

Or maybe its just the support class I love playing. Hope they improve it.

starter guns sucked in BF3 too...I just can't be arsed to play one map over and over.

BattleLog just updated with a bannar saying

 We are preparing for the Open Battlefield 4 Beta. Until the Beta is live, you will not be able to access the Battlefield 4 section of Battlelog.

So looks like they've not released it yet.

If you go into Battlefield 4 in the store you have the option to "Try Beta". Then it works! Downloading now!

Ah thanks, Did check that a while ago and there wasn't anything there. but its up for me now as well.

 

Useful BF4 tips and hints:

Went to download beta and found out I only have 2GB left on my drive. Damn you Steam sales.

Haha, time for a new drive...or some un-installing....or if its all on your C then ccleaner might free up enough, I've seen that clear GB's if its never been run or not run for a while

Well i wont be upgrading to 8.1 Just for one game, I suspect it will be better optimised closer to release date on 7. Using 560ti and high ish settings, its fine until tower drops or go near spraying water.

If you have any games that support DX11 at all, it won't be just one game.

 

In my case, my issue is lag - horrible lag.  (But then, I'm closer to the floor RAM-wise, therefore the lag is not surprising; also I was on a nearly-full server.)

I love how the RPG is now a giant sniper rifle with a bomb on the end of it... since you can lock onto anything with the help of any sniper now.  :/ ruins the weapon, and game imho... especially for anyone in a vehicle.

 

Not to mention how RPGs actually work IRL.

I didn't realize that the RPG could lock on targets with the sniper's laser sight thing or at least not the very first RPG that's available until I saw a video showing it. It really should be an unlockable weapon.

    • This seems backwards. You should have to explicitly authorize files for outside use. It shouldn't be the default.
    • Wow you are right, I never even noticed this until you said it! (870E Aorus Master) Before testing this card I had a TP-Link tx401 10GbE PCIe card in that slot (now using XikeStor 310 Thunderbolt to Ethernet adapter).
    • Lack of 5.1 makes this a no sale. What I really wish creative would make would be a USB version that supports 5.1 analog audio for speakers, can switch to headphone mode, and matches the specs of their top tier cards. The current X870E AMD motherboards dont have a great option for adding a PCIE x1 card without cutting down pcie lanes to the graphics card.
    • The Microsoft Office feature that time forgot by Usama Jawad I have been actively using Microsoft Word for the past couple of decades in academic, professional, and personal capacities. Although I used it through the perpetual version of Office apps at the start, I have been an active subscriber of Microsoft 365 Family subscription for over five years now. This means that my Word installation is regularly updated with new features, some of which I don't really like, but that's beside the point. As new features get continuously added, old ones that used to be a staple of Word have started to take a backseat. While I was reminiscing over my Windows experiences from my childhood today, I suddenly remember one such capability that I heavily used in my younger years but have not really touched in over a decade, and haven't seen in documents created by others either. That feature is WordArt. Just to clarify, WordArt is not a Microsoft product specific to Word, and is included in other Office apps like PowerPoint and Excel too. However, Microsoft Word is the app that I used Word Art in heavily, while making assignments or other deliverables for school. If you're unaware, WordArt offers a collection of styling techniques for text, introducing 3D effects like shadows and reflections in the text. It used to be one of the coolest things ever when I was at school and me and my classmates would often compete to ensure that our assignment's title in WordArt was truly the best and stood out above the rest. See some examples of WordArt, still present in the latest versions of Word below: Although WordArt is undeniably cool, it has taken a bit of a backseat, and has been relegated from the Home tab to the Insert toolbar, along with a bunch of other utilities, making it very easy to miss. This isn't exactly surprising because WordArt doesn't really have a place in academic and professional documents anymore, and while I have seen some creatives using it while developing promo material, even that sector has gravitated more towards dedicated graphic designing tools in the past years. For the vast majority of us, WordArt doesn't really exist, and that's alright. At least, it's still an option that can allow us to reminisce our childhood or even make some quick text stylization, if we really need it. Perhaps its usage has waned over time or the novelty has worn off, but I haven't even seen children use it in their academic assignments anymore. In fact, many don't even know that it exists. Maybe that's the fate of every beloved feature. What once felt cutting edge eventually becomes a relic, quietly tucked away as tastes, trends, and technology move on. WordArt may no longer dominate school assignments or decorate the covers of classroom projects, but for those of us who grew up with it, it remains a colorful reminder of a time when making text glow, bend, and cast giant shadows felt like the height of creativity. Hidden behind a few clicks in modern Word, it still survives not as a productivity tool, but as a small piece of computing nostalgia that refuses to disappear.
