Which battlefield edition is best to buy?

JoeStanleyW · June 13, 2016, 6:05pm

I’m considering whether it’s worth paying £20 extra for somethings bonus. What edition have you pre ordered?

AK-Bear-12 · June 13, 2016, 6:56pm

I pre-ordered the deluxe one, if the m1911 is a hellfighter pack only weapon then it was worth it

DevilsBathtub · June 13, 2016, 6:59pm

might as well get the deluxe

Sir-xer21 · June 13, 2016, 7:03pm

None. Pre orders encourage bad business practices and are bad for consumers in the long run.

DevilsBathtub · June 13, 2016, 7:05pm

how so?

Sir-xer21 · June 13, 2016, 7:12pm

at worst (if they’re requiring a down payment), people are paying for a product sight unseen and at best , they’re using you for free marketing to flaunt how many free pre orders they got.

and the consumer gets a potentially broken game, and even if it works, gets nothing extra usually outside of some extra cosmetic stuff. This isnt 2000, we dont need to reserve copies anymore. places actually get normal stock and most PC players buy digitally.

XTS-KingBeef · June 13, 2016, 7:15pm

I just buy the most expensive version.

DevilsBathtub · June 13, 2016, 7:15pm

the way i see it, if you are planning to play on day 1 you might as well preorder and get a wee bonus, its only £50.

Those preorders give the company less of an incentive to make the game work on day 1 though. you’re basically promising you’re going to buy it. When a company sees they have 3 million preorders, those are more or less guaranteed sales…who are on the hook if the game isnt working as intended on launch.

i dont really care, i spend more on beer in a week and that gets pissed down a toilet, BF1 will last me till the servers shut down.
and yeah i will buy premium.

Loqtrall · June 13, 2016, 7:47pm

Sheesh, more than $60 on beer per week? I’m a connoisseur of all all things beer, but even I don’t hit em that hard.

I dont have a problem with spending the money on a game. its about encouraging better Consumer relations.

I’m not talking about waiting to see if the game is worth the money, im talking about not fronting companies the money so they have more of an incentive to put out a working product instead of trying to rush hotfixes at the beginning with an unstable game.

they could be releasing this for 5 dollars and i still wouldnt pre order it.

they key word there is limited.

You either get the car or you dont. there are not limited copied of Battlefield 1.

yeah but they do pre order, which is the case

Sir-xer21 · June 13, 2016, 9:32pm

@DevilsBathtub yeah, but its an entirely different situation.

If they were only releasing limited numbers of copies for the game, that would make sense as a comparison. but they’re not.

Say_Hellr · June 13, 2016, 9:47pm

Become a Amazon prime member and pre-order the deluxe for *20% off (something like $62.00). It’s what I did…
