Standard here costs me 60 Euros without any of the maps in the future, that's asking me for £52 entirely just for the digital game and nothing else, that is way above the average asking price for a AAA game, DOOM for example was asking at least £40 for their base game, that had a very decent SP to it as well, the BF series isn't well regarded and known for their SP as much as their MP and we all know how their SP goes in terms of story. The value to me isn't there, not for way above the PC digital base game price and EA has no vendor competition to force them to price accordingly so the price stays high for a decent amount of time. I managed to grab DOOM for £30 around 2 weeks from it's release thanks to GMG, that was enough to get me to go for the game because I saw it being near the asking price I found worthy of dropping down cash for. If EA discount it later on down the line and it runs really well on PC then chances are high that I might grab it, I managed to snag BF4 at a cheap price with it running better down the line since it's launch. If you price your game at a price I can go for and it runs well then I'll go for it, price high and don't have the game up and running decently while delivering less content and I'll simply step back and wait until you do. (Also I checked their digital deluxe, it only comes with one pre-order map and tiny bits and pieces while asking me for 80 Euros which comes to £69.41 and that's without VAT). |
Oh yeah I was thinking ps4 version because that's what I get which you can trade in if you go retail. Not sure about steam but you can but your games on the American psn and save a nice bit of money thanks to exchange rates.
BTW I'm not talking about the deluxe version which is just a money spinner. I'm talking standard game + premium. for regular battlefield players like myself it's insane value for my money.
But mate, you're line of thinking is wrong. You're not missing out on content you deserve by buying the standard game. That's a legitimate full priced package right there. The dlc is developed after and you have no devine right to it. Most games that give it for free like GTA or rainbow 6 have microtransactions.
It's like me expecting to get the uncharted 4 dlc for free because I paid full price for the standard package. Lol come on mate that's just not realistic.
