Those who bought the Deluxe edition paid $50 to play the game 12 days early. Those who bought the standard edition paid $30 to play the game 7 days early. Those who buy the game now are getting a great deal.

Okay, That is crazy. If i was someone who paid the full price i would contact my CC company and force a refund for that, That’s just crazy it goes on sale that fast. What next the “Sorry, game didn’t sale well, our bad, no live service?”

I would but I bought digitally through ms store and have 24 hours sunk. I will not be able to justify it.

What did you expect?  
The game i missing half its content.  
The single player are missing 25% at launch.  
Multiplayer are missing ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ like dragging.  
Like every mp game these days, bugs are now features.  
It certantly doesnt help to ask the core playerbase to like it or ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ off.  
And the marketing have been both abbysmal and horrible at the same time.  
.  
Now think about it, are you sure you werent expecting them to discount it very very quick?  
To me its as obvious as Fallout 4´s MMO mod that fails to be massive…

Oh I expected a quick discount. But i wasn’t expecting it until at least the 2nd week of December. Comparing this to fallout 76, this game is very fixable and will be completed in short order. from what I understand fallout is at its core unfixable and was reviewed terribly.

I compare them because i see them both as unfinished games that was released to early at a too high price.  
Both games are very fixable (exept the lore retconning in FO4 mod) they just need to keep cooking abit longer, what amazes me so much is that EA/DICE decided to cook it abit longer but not long enough to ironing out most of the complainging and actually adding the things that should be in launch… like ALL the singleplayer stuff…(god thats stupid) and the dragging.  
.  
Also…  
I have no idea if i use the quoting correcly but whatever.

What’s with all the different release dates? Such a darn mess.

I originally pre-ordered the Deluxe Edition (After the good Alpha, if I’m remembering correctly). As the release date approaches they are telling me I’m not going to be able to play it at release. So I cancelled the pre-order and got one month of Origin Premium. The game did not impress me, to be honest, so I’ve cancelled the Origin Access Premier membership too. I’ll be waiting for a considerable price drop before picking it up.

I’m afraid that this is the case. Dice could quit BF5 support with statement 'No money, no honey because they did not receive any money for it yet

Are you having fun?

Yes or No?

Do you have any trouble finding a game when you sit down to play?

Yes or No?

If your answers are Yes to the former and No to the latter what’s the problem?

Prices change. Things go on sale. If you are old enough to handle money and buy products this should come as no surprise.

Fun, sometimes yes, sometime no. No issues with match making. I guess the silver lining is all the haters will probably be enticed and pick the game up and realize it’s fairly decent and hopefully keep it going.

We have no issues finding full servers…yet. But what will happen is a few months when more people leave? It’s a big anomaly for AAA game to go on 50% sale a week after release.

Reports indicate that sales are extremely low. There is a good chance that developers might adondan the project in 4-6 months.
